Default New owner of 2010 GS 350

Been reading over most of this forum. Two questions if anyone can help. First question under rear armrest should there be lights like front seats. 2nd question can anyone tell me what these two stickers mean I am adding pictures for front and red armrest as well as stickers in engine bay.

Under rear armrest
Front armrezt

Just checked and I don't have lights under my rear armrests either

As for the stickers, I've never seen those before either, but maybe they're there because the catalytic converters were replaced at some point. Presumably it has something to do with the emission system since it mentions the mods being approved by the EPA and CARB. And exhaust systems can get rusty and develop holes after a few winters in the eastern states, especially if the car was parked outside and the salt wasn't washed off regularly

Also, your car looks great! Are those 4GS wheels?

If you register at the Lexus owners website (http://drivers.lexus.com/lexusdrivers/home) you can look at the entire service history, so you should be able to get an explanation there

Just looked at my service history for the first time and found these two items – it looks like ELF is the fuel pressure sensor recall, and DLG is the cam gear recall:

Those wheels are actually correct for the car. They are the standard GS350 AWD rims. I believe they are 17s or 18s. I have never seen those stickers, but they are obviously for the recalls. Looks very clean to me. Congrats!

Make sure you put in the exact VIN number with no extra spaces at the end. The Lexus site is very finicky. If you copy and paste the VIN, a lot of times it adds an extra space and the website will say it's invalid.

Yes at first i copy and paste. then I actually typed it out, still no go. They supposed to do it from their end. I am suspecting that the previous owner still have it set up to their account. Because they asked if I am the only owner of the car.
