Hi! New to forum. Have old farm in WV. Have 2004 RX330 AWD with 90K. Just put on Nitto NT850+CUV tires all around for $815 with alignment. Was told that I had a leaking rear strut. Just ordered KYB Shock Absorber and Strut Assembly plus boots for both sides from Car-Stuff for $192. Spending winter in S. Texas so not home to do the job myself. Local labor to install $180.
I have a 1994 Mercedes SL500 and a 1988 Jeep Comanche and use those forums for DIY work. The Jeep is simple to work on. The SL500 forum has been great. Hope the Lexus keeps running great so as not to require much work.

just get caught up on the fluid changes. i.e trans fluid, transfer case, rear diff, power steering fluid.

Welcome to Club Lexus.

The only other major item we have seen on the boards here are with the wheel bearings failing in the AWD models. Not necessarily common place, but perhaps more than what one might expect. If things get noisy, use the search features of the forum to have a look at what others are saying.

I'll check on the fluids. I know the brake fluid was changed during the recent recall. I also had the timing belt replaced for mileage and the radiator fluid when I had the water pump changed at the same time. I also had the front seal changed when they did all that work.
