Lexus has been "looking into it" for over a year now, it's troubling that this issue is also present on some 2017 models which indicates they haven't done anything about it.

They are looking into the situation and will either come up with a solution or say there is nothing wrong.
I would say if they say nothing is wrong we begin a internet campaign to tell people not to buy Lexus. This will cost the company hundreds of millions in sales and damage their brand which up till now is excellent.
I have had my 1999 RX 300 for 17 years with never a problem. , I also owned two toyota trucks and a toyota car. So I am hoping that Lexus/Toyota stand up to this problem before it blows up in their face
ala Volkswagen's problem. It will be a lot cheaper to fix our problem then face a very vocal anti Lexus rabble. I feel ripped off by Lexus and extremely disappointed in them.
I had the TSB bulletin to reboot and reflash the memory, changed to Premium gas and drive in Sport mode. Nothing worked and the sound virbation worsened.
PS The sales people say their is no problem, but the Tech dept. told me this morning that Lexus has admitted they are looking into it.
I will join anybody who is ready to take this up with Lexus corporate... until and unless they feel the heat they are not going to get it fixed.
