If anyone can log into the Lexus site and can explain what the last page of services were all about I would appreciate it. I am in talks with the buyer as we speak. Otherwise 5 pages of service but it looks also like only one set or brakes as well. VIN
JTHBP262385003786 and continuous appreciation for everyone that had put up with me. And helped. I have narrowed it down to a few cars and all are in my wheelhouse for what I can afford. Just depends if I want higher or lower mileage car

1. Dash pads where replaced- something was replaced for the sticky dash issue that some IS's get in certain climates or when exposed to harsh cleaning chemicals(#0674696). This is a good thing for you.
2. Suspension noise- seems that some after market springs probably caused the shocks/bushings to go bad, creating a clacking noise, you should probably makes sure this was fixed and shocks or bushings where replaced. It seems the dealer did not want to work on the modified components so no dealer record is shown (#0275481), maybe a outside shop or DIYer fixed it.
3. Fuel pressure sensor recall was performed (#0674696)
4. Cooling fan recall performed(#0674890)
Other things I noticed on the other pages:
Seems the car was kept up pretty well up to about 79K, the water pump replacement was done aswell
Besides the suspension issue, I think this looks to be a well maintained car, just makes sure that was resolved and you should be good.

Hey man, 2008 huh, So it seems on the last page:
1. Dash pads where replaced- something was replaced for the sticky dash issue that some IS's get in certain climates or when exposed to harsh cleaning chemicals(#0674696). This is a good thing for you.
2. Suspension noise- seems that some after market springs probably caused the shocks/bushings to go bad, creating a clacking noise, you should probably makes sure this was fixed and shocks or bushings where replaced.

I was thinking the suspension was an issue. We agreed on 22,500 so at this mileage we know some things will have to be done. I didn't see plugs on that list either. But not willing to throw coin into suspension stuff. Thanks for the input. I feel it's members that come on to help all of us that dont have the extensive knowledge that you all have that makes it worth the while. Right now these ISF's are very competitively priced.

no problem, your right about the plugs, it's not terribly difficult to do yourself with the right tools if you or someone you know is mechanically inclined. $22,500 is a great price, alot of room for future repairs or mods. I got my 08 with 56k a year ago for 29k before extended warranty , not bad but maybe I should have waited. It just turned 80k today and I have had zero issues.

Great price.
I paid 29k for my '08 8 months ago, 54k miles. Bought it from the local Ford dealer, seems everything here (seattle) is overpriced. Wish now I had educated myself as well as you.
Stilled thrilled enough with the car that I'm modifying it.
On your prospective purchase, I really like that your dash & door panels were replaced. Mine haven't been, but they're in perfect condition. IMO this ranks as the biggest shortcoming with our cars (& it's only on the '08). Def an expensive fix w/new parts.
23k sounds like a helluva price, esp. with recent tires, brakes & suspension fix. How's the car look/drive?
Good luck with the search.

Well this car is looking more and more lucrative since other sellers arent very good at getting back to me. Only thing is he says he prefers to text because his English is really broken from Spanish.
