What cause this problem?
few days ago I started my GS350 RWD 2007, after i pushed the start button then the car feel shaking none stop and the dash lights just flash with it. does this happen to anyone with RWD be4?
Provide more info. How many miles and such? Any history with the car? Get yourself a ODBII scanner to pull the codes. That'll really help you. Sounds like it's mis-firing, really. But, just a guess based on how you're describing it.
68k miles on it now. I am the 3rd owner of the car since 58k miles. It happened after I got oil changeed few days later

My car shook after starting it a couple years ago. The lights didn't flash though. Didn't happen again so I let it go.
Every now and then I get slight shaking when I let the car idle down after cold starts. It seems to happen when I change my cold start sequence. If I start it and go after one minute every morning, no problem. If I start it and wait until it idles down on it's own every morning, no problem. If some mornings I go and some morning I wait, I get the slight shaking.
Anyone else have this?
The 3GS is not a perfect car. Infact, I am amazed at the little niggles Lexus didn't have with my first Lexus cars.
For some reason, I still love her. There is no other car out there like it. In a crowd of cars, it stands out.
Just wanted to get that in there.

also could be a weak battery. Once I took too long to programy i**** to the car bluetooth and it drain the battery.. I got the same flashing and the car was unable to start. It works fine after I plug in the booster pack to jump start the car.

I know that Pep Boys pulls codes from your car for free. Autozone might also do it. Just tell them you have a Check Engine Light and ask them if they can pull the codes for you. They'll just plug in a little box and it reads the error codes from the car.
