Vacuum regulator replaced. My car feels great again!
Easy access installation.
did you walk in and have them replace it over the counter? cause i recall you said you relocated it for easy access. i can easily see them blaming that for the failure like dummies.

No, I bought the part online and replaced it myself. I don't want to take it to the dealer due to my aftermarket bolt ons.
i think my regulator keeps buzzing on and off so I'm going to attempt to replace it. What's the difficulty level for replacing it? The vacuum tubes are super easy but how about the rest?

It's a PITA to replace IMO, so that's why i relocated it to a more accessible spot. My old regulator is in the original spot still lol.
Did a little research and discovered that BMW uses a similar unit for the vacuum regulator. Our unit is also made in Germany, so i totally understand the reason for the failure rate.
If this Pierburg reference is fully compatible with our car it is very interesting as we can found same in France at Eur 58 ie around 68.5 USD. Assume that the cost at Lexus shop is more higher
For the time being no trouble with same but .....

The connector is the only thing that is different. The Lexus part sells for around $95-$110 online, but its no charge at the dealer once under warranty.
