Exclamation RX300 December 2004

Can anyone help? I have bought a late 2004 RX300 and love it however blows out white/blue smoke in the morning after having been left overnight. Oly lasts for 30 secs to 45,secs. Also burned around 3 1/2 lts oil after first 1250/1500 miles. Is this car part of the class acttion? There are only 3 stamps in service book! Ow ever otherwise runs beautifully

Welcome to Club Lexus!

Sounds like you have sludge. I believe you have the RX300SE because that's when they had the 04 model year. Not sure if that is covered, but the extended warranty is suppose to be 8 years from build date.

EDIT: I think the class action suit only applied up to the 02' RX.
