Default 09 RX350 problems? new owner

I will be picking up a RX350 tomorrow and would like there if there is any known problems I should know. For example I used to own a RX300 and they were notorious for Sludge and IACV dirty-ness.

Thanks
Ge

They will replace with another rubber one unless the customer purchase all metal from out of pocket and pay for additional labor.

Personally I won't worry about a rubber one. our 07 RX has 110k miles already.
