RX350 Suspension how to's??
I will probably be condemned for saying that I have a lemon tasting Lexus, but this 61,000 mile 2007 RX 350 is not proving to be as bullit proof as our prior beloved 150,000 mile IS300.
I've searched the internet, along with this site, and can't seem to find any how to pictures or videos on what I need to fix.. All of them seem to be on gen 1 rx's . If anybody knows of any gen 2, please let me know.
Not long after our warranty expired, .........
the rack and pinion started to leak out of the passenger side boot....maybe a drop a day. Any links on how it is to fix this?
The rear struts clunk when hitting any sizable bump. I inspected, and the boots are torn. I suspect from the clunks, that I should just replace the whole assembly. Does this sound right? Does anybody seem to have a helpfull link for this?
And third annoyance/issue, is the dash rattling. Passenger side at the windshield. I've read in the past that this happens in my 2007. Well, it didn't creak a bit until 6 months after warranty, now it creaks on any road bumpier than glass. I've seen posts on this one, but if you know of a good one to try to fix this, please pass along...(or feel free to tell me to turn radio up, if it's not worth ther trouble).
Thanks in advance.
