I recently installed a OE transmission bushing and it took care of a VERY severe rattle/rumbling that would occur at 45 and 65 mph. I ended up getting the bushing from rock auto for only ~$50 and it fit perfectly. The job was actually very easy and straight forward. Hopefully you figure out the problem.

Wow, i think that mount is only about thirty bucks at Sewells and that's for genuine parts. I'm glad you solved your problem. I'll update whenever i solve my problem.

I just checked pricing and the RockAuto part is made by DEA and is $41.79 compared to Swell website pricing at $53.00 for genuine Lexus. Hope this helps your decision.

If you have a membership with Sewells you get Club Lexus discounted price. $32.00 bucks. I buy all my Lexus parts/ fluids from there.

Well I saved money by doing it myself. Haha

I wish I would've known this before. I should've searched more and worked less on the car.

Hello again, no i never resolved the vibration issues but i do have Tranny and engine mounts just haven't installed.
First a few days ago my heat started acting up blowing warm at times and then going cold. Today i was on my way to work stopped to fill up and about five minutes after pulling out of gas station the temperature gauge shoots up over the (H). So i pull over and remembering what i read about "air in the system" i take off coolant resevoir cap and rev to 4000rpm and antifreeze just boiled over no gurgling. BTW timing service done about 6k miles ago and mileage is at about 165k. Also i haven't checked oil haven't noticed any smoke other than normal since its been cold out.
