Tomorrow's the big day. Got an appointment at noon. Hopefully they don't sell it. They've sold 3 since last weekend.

If they do sell it, I'll settle for a LC

ABT8 - I've got the same issue - breaks are squeaking. Also, I've just noticed today that I'm also feeling the jerking "bump" I think someone called it, in the early mornings. On top of that, I did notice that I was sitting at a stop light with foot on breaks and I also had the engine rev - just out of nowhere and sort of felt as if it went to another gear or something like that. So I'm taking it to my local dealer to discuss.

I have notice a slight bump whenever I accelerate from a stop with brake hold on, and occasional jerky/bump when shifting from P to R.

Yeah, I've been noticing the P to R bump as well. Lets see what the verdict is at the dealers.

Yep mine did that right off the bat, waiting tell spring tell get them replaced. with the TSB ones. Less brake dust but as my service guy stated less stopping power.

I noticed this as well, got the TSIB done but still feels like it is slightly there not sure if anyone else got it done and has had the same experience as me.

I got the transmission TSB done, but I still feel the jerk now and then when moving forward from a stop. It's definitely more pronounced when the car is cold even after it's been driven for about a mile.

Yep same, guess I'm not the only one. Guess I'll learn to live with it.

how lexus can have these issues with their flagship and 8-9 years to perfect the car and vision is unacceptable

seems like all of you that have purchased if you screamed enough can get out of the car with a lawyer
