Forgot information about my car.

Sorry.
i forgot to inform, that i drive a LS600HL,4 seat model from 2007, with 230.000 km on it now.

i am a DIY guy, and i have done many jobs in the years on my different lexuses.
i have driven these cars for 25 years so i have a bit oil on my hands.

i have had 2, LS 430 president editions, with no klonking noice from the front, what so ever, so i was a bit suprised with the LS600 problem.

there is no loose parts(Danish MOT is checking every 2 years, and they wil find it, if it has any wear), and i have not been able to locate the source of this klonk, that sounds a bit like a spring affected noise.
regards
Allan

I had my compressor replaced on my 2016 at 23k miles. Over the course of a day or two I started to notice the car getting lower until I eventually took it in and by that time it was pretty much slammed to the ground. This was back in 2020 and I can’t find the service order, but I believe it cost a little over $3k.
