OK... here goes...

1. The first problem is that my car thinks that my passenger door is open after changing the door light on my passenger side. Now the door light doesn't work at all and while I'm driving the open door light is on my console and car goes " DiiiiinG " after awhile. (I tried changing the fuse located under the glove, still no good.) Any suggestions?

2. When I try to start my car it goes " Click, " after a couple " Clicks " the car will start. I'm guessing it is the starter contacts after searching around in the forums. Could I DIY? If Yes, where can I get the parts.

3. When I brake sometimes I hear a big " CLUNK " coming from my driver front fender and I did some searching it could be fixed with a shim kit? Well, I guess this is a normal thing. I guess I can stand it for now, but if there are any suggestions on how to fix it, I would love to! (I have aftermarket brakes/rotors).

4. While I'm driving, I hear a spinning noise like it could be coming from the tires. Not sure though.

5. The door actuators going out. I've read up about those. It makes the " bap bap " noise when you try to lock up.

Well, that's about it for now that I can think of. My car is making all sorts of noises. Haha

Any/All suggestions would be great. Thanks!

 

Any help or suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated! =)

 

Welcome to CL

2. have you checked with the vendors:
l-tunedparts.com or lexus-part.com

I had my starter replaced with a remanufactured one.

3. As explained to me, the brake system are free floating, so they click when it shifts from a reverse to a drive....some thing in that nature. There was a tsb on that, they just greased it but it eventually comes back.
After replacing with new brake pads, no more "click" sound now.

4. Don't know, may be a tech can ride with you and listen to the sound.
Can range from bad bearings, tires not wearing evenly.........too vague.
Does it go away or get louder with different speed?

 

Thanks a lot! I've read that it would be a cheaper alternative to change out the contacts, but I'll change the starter if that's the problem. I guess I can live with problem 3 and 4, but I would really want to fix problems 1 & 2. Thanks again.

I checked those sites for starters or contacts and didn't come up with anything.
