help?!?!
Hey guys so in the 330 in the mornings when i first pull out of the garage and get going everything is fine then after about a 100 yards I get this squeal that last just a second. Any ideas?

The ABS/VSC sytstem does a self check shortly after the vehicle is moving. Typically, it's well before 100 yards though. Wonder if it's your ABS pump (on it's way out, unfortunately)? If you listen very very carefully and feel with your foot, you can hear and feel the ABS system cycling. See if this corresponds with the squeel. It's very subtle on the Lexus - some cars (my wife's old 2007 Impals for example, the noise and vibration is very noticeable).

I had lexus look at it but they could not replicate lol surprise surprise but they said it may also be a belt. I dont know, tell me more about this ABS issue...i have the AWD version so i am not really sure what to think. Surely the ABS isnt going out

It's not an ABS issue, it's just the ABS pump cycling to do a self check after you start the car.
However, upon reviewing your post, I see it only happens first thing in the morning....the ABS self check happens after every start. So maybe it is a belt...
