valve spring replacement question
I bought the car used. It's an late 07 model (made) but classified at 2008. So I guess this falls into that VSR recall category. Anyhow, I check with Lexus owner and my car is has nothing listed under warranty recall. How can I tell if the previous owner/dealership had the recall done already?

I can see the service history report online (Lexus.com owner) but I dont' see anything that resemble "Valve Spring" or anything... For those who have done it, what do they call that service?

Actually, I just looked it up. This is what mine says...
Dealer Reported 12/15/2010 Len Stoler Lexus 18523 0201149 ALE REPL COMP SPRINGS & LASH ADJUSTERS FOR GS460,
I think it all depends on how service adviser records this. If you call the dealer I'm sure they'll be able to tell you.

Again, i think it all depends how dealer records this and looks like my dealer is pretty sloppy.

Not sloppy, mine says the same thing , they all use this info for the Lexus service input the gs460 was also part of this recall and they just use one phrase to cover all v8s

I got a letter today from Lexus giving me a $1500 certificate to buy or lease a new Lexus and a 6 Year 100,000 mile power train warranty from LFS. I would rather have my regular warranty upgraded as I have about 800 miles left on it. Anyway I can negotiate something?
