I just purchased a new GS460 and noticed a few things:
1- Steering is rough will driving, ie, when i transfer to another lane.
2- Bit of vibrations while cruising
3- Brakes keep on squeaking when i remove my leg from them.
4- Side mirrors wont fold when I switch of the car.

IS this normal??? Thanks

 

1) No - not at all
2) Could be the road, is it speed dependant? Could be balance or tire pressure.
3) No - there is a bulletin on squeeky brakes, have this done
4) Make sure they are set to "auto" in the control pod (can't remember if this is a feature of the GS or not tho). I would NOT use this feature, the mirror motors are a bit notorious and expensive for failure if not under warranty... I only fold my mirrors in if necessary.

4) this is not a feature of the gs.

 

Also, when I switch off the car and exit, there is massive heat coming out from the brakes I think.. which I find very unusual since I didnt experience this in my Sisters ES350. Am I being paranoid or is there something wrong with my car!!!
ALSO, the drivers door lock should lock and unlock all locks when operated, but for some reason mines dont!! Guess I am having bad luck with my new car

 

Any Idea Why

 

Brakes get hot but the locks are a setting a dealer can change

 

It's not all bad luck: to get all doors to unlock requires a code change... I asked the dealership to do it for me; now even if I touch the back door handle, all doors unlock... love it.

 

steering is rough when lane changing? HUH?

460 has the VGRS, variable gear-ratio steering, perhaps, that's what you are feeling?

 

if you're talking using the keyfob, I think it's an LPS change requiring the dealer. If you're talking smartaccess, there is a user changable setting in the owners manual. I think mine was on p28-ish.
