Urgent! Battery Is Down!
I need to replace the battery now! But I saw the sign on my lexus factory battery that shows me 84 month warranty. Should I drive xx miles to Lexus dealership and ask them replace it for free? I only can reach Toyata dealership in my local area. What is the best way to do it? Thanks for all suggestions!

No, I don't play soccer!
Try giving Lexus Roadside Assistance a call. They might be able to help you out. I had AAA when mine died outside of the standard warranty so it wasn't an issue getting to the dealer. And it was replaced for free. Good luck.

How much is the one from Lexus anyway? I just saw one from SAM's Club - Size 24F etc. for 72ish. That where I'll be going once my OEM Panasonic is up. Lucky for us our replacement battery are cheap.

I think I payed around $115(with tax) for mine, and that's after bargaining with them on the phone. When I got my receipt, the retail was written as $150. I knew ahead of time that they can go much lower. I looked up the price at the dealership($107 retail/$83 from them) that I get all my parts from, but they are located in another state so I had no choice but to shop locally.

I think a 24 will fit just fine. I have been checking on size and specs. Costco does not carry a 24F.

My wife tried to start her 2007 after 2 weeks in the garage and found it first turned over very slowly. When she tried again it started up immediately. It could be a 1) slow drain over the 2 weeks, 2) some corrosion on the calbes, or 3) it's time for a new battery after these 5 years. I will remove and clean the corrosion (and buy a new battery if the problem re-occurs) but can anyone tell me if removing the cable for about 10 minutes will require any reprogramming? Thanks much!

You will have to re-initialize. The owner's manual spells it out.
