Would the timing belt be replaced over 100,000 miles?

Is it free? I'll go look at it...thanks for the tip.

EDIT**Lexus.com as well as other websites don't exept my VIN as "valid". I got the EXACT VIN # and it doesn't regard. What could this mean?

Hmm.... Check the other locations of the car for the VIN, under the hood, door jam, trunk lid, etc. and make sure they're the same and all.

Do you suspect a wreck? The title is clean as is everything on the car...It was most definitely not wrecked.I will check in those places, thank you. Will let you know if the numbers match.

So I had the 0 instead of the C in the VIN. Did a search on Lexus.com and it looks like my SC400 was babied from a grandma. Please take time to read the report...it's almost embarrassing...taking a Lexus to a dealer because the wipers SMEAR?? Come now...I also found out were my SC400 was purchased brand new. It purchased brand new at Lexus of Pembroke Pines in Florida, in Miami. WOOOOT! Both links below.

and BTW, the VIN matched the hood so....couldn't find it on trunk or door though...

Thanks for the help guys!

We can't access your report. You'll have to copy and paste here.
