Took a pic of this page in my VIP mag showing a timeline of changes of the 4th Gen LS, 2013-Plus to 2010-2012 to 2007-2009 refreshes.

 

I didn't see an answer to this question. Anyone?

 

Yes, Lexus redesigned the control arms (basically replaced the bushings with better ones) is the short answer.

 

Resurrecting an old thread... Did anything change underneath the car between these model ranges? Or was it only cosmetic upgrades?

 

Does anyone know compatibility issues with updating my 08 with 5th gen nav system so I can stream music?

Thanks

 

Hi all - can any one tell me which model has a day light running head lights is it LS460 2010 or 2012 or 2008 also have it

 

They all have daytime running headlights.

 

So will parts such as headlights from the 2010-12 fit on the 07-09 and will the side mirrors with blinkers function on the 07-09, also I heard that if you get the 5 spoke rims or the 9 spoke rims the transmission is specifically tuned for that size wheel🤷‍♂️ and that if you switch it will cause the check engine to appear. Can you shed any light on this?

 

Wheel sizes (tire+alloy) are standard across both models, R18 and R19. No outer diameter change if correct matching tire is used (245/45 for r19 e.g.). No transmission differences.
No, headlights will not fit. Washers are in the bumper on 10-12.
There are lots of differences, like different network protocols, camshafts and related parts are upgraded, suspension and diff too.
