I have a 1990 Lexus LS 400 with 150,120 miles on it. Wanted to know if having an oil seep around the oil pan gasket and also a seep around the valve gasket cover are major problems?
Also I was told that if I disconnect the battery for a few minutes and reconnect then the 4 doors speakers would probably work. haven't tried it yet but the tweeters and sub works just not the door speakers.
Last question I have is how can I personally install the bulbs the blown bulbs for the license plate lights?

  1. Take a + (star) screwdriver.
  2. Unscrew the cover for the license plate lights.
  3. Pull out lights.
  4. Replace with super bright LED's (my opinion, any bulb would do).
  5. Screw it back up.

See .. its easy! Just make sure your lights are off because these tiny bulbs tend to get really really hot.

98 -LS400

Purchased a month ago to replace the '95 I had. Topica Mica i believe is the exterior on Black with 140K. This baby rides like new and the power is amazing. I'm in love all over again!
