Tic tic noise from front of the car (I think...)
Hi all,
Just bought 3 mths ago, a 2010 IS F. Very happy
Recently, I've heard a strange noise from the front of the car (I think from the wheels). I can hear it clearly in the underground parking, when I turn right (not when I turn left), while I go down to the lower level of the parking... Straight line, no noise.
I can hear a tic tic tic tic (best way to describe the noise), from the front of the car, while turning right.
I have to plan a visit to Lexus next week. However, maybe some owners had such problem and can share it with me... It might help direct the mechanic...
Thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Norinn

sounds like a cv joint/boot...but I havent heard of that issue since my honda days lol....I have noticed a noise too but not exactly like yours I too will have Lexus check it out soon. On a side note do you guys get a lot of noise from the roof and sun roof over bumps and stuff? Its killing me!

Cheers mate.
Same, I'll ask them to fix the sun roof noise. I've noticed that when the car is under the sun for a while and she's hot, the dash makes some strange noise, until she gets colder with the AC...
