My advice to you all. If something doesn't feel right - find the dealership that will not ignore your problems.
Wow, thanks for sharing mmorozov, looks like the dealership made a huge difference and I'm glad your vehicle ride is improved!

I am in the initial stage of a run around on the wind noise.

If rolling the window down a nudge solves it, then it can be solved.

Don't understand the acting like this is a mystery.

Default Wind noise

Lexus had my car 19 days replaced the windows and some bushings and the noise is still there and very apparent

>the vehicle combined with unrealistic expectations from customers.

Looks like "unrealistic expectations" are quite realistic if they can be fixed with the TSIB, as confirmed by many people.

I also had an unrealistic expectation of a smooth drive in my LS460........... .

Concur. I had similar vibrations from the front end took my LS460L in at 1,000 miles and the dealer balanced the tires. The vibrations disappeared to a great extent but it was still slightly there, So subtle that a passenger wouldn't have noticed it but I found this to be unexceptable, especially after coming out of LS400 to LS430 to LS460L. I took the car back to the dealer at 5,000 miles and had a tech ride with me. They replaced the front two "Dunlop" tires and balanced all the four. All done at no cost with no hassle; supposedlly the two front tires were "out of round".

Oh yea, my favorite is PG001-06: Battery Maintenance for In-Stock Vehicles & Pre-Delivery: All Models & Model Years (Revised). It was electrifying!

I had bookmarked your page from before, but thanks for the update/reminder Clam!
