I had the same problem. It was the behind the dash and the dealership fixed it with a new recall noise damper. Problem solved

It's a fairly known issues in some LS460's. Dealerships know it and already have a procedure/Lexus directive to fix it as stated above. It's behind the dash.

I hear like a water pouring sound behind my dash. Sometime I hear rattles but only in very very rough road. Do I have the same problem? What's the dealer fix? Is there a TSIB?

Thanks JFNash. My Vin is 47xxx and the TSIB stopped at 45xxx. Does anyone know the dealer will do the repair above the Vin range?
