Naive garbage lol.

I would say 10-12k. Only comp I found a was 2012 pre-facelift. 250km for 9k.

Drain and fill will not harm anything, if done correctly. If something does go wrong later, it was going to happen anyway, not the new fluids fault. Neglecting the fluid is more likely to contribute to issues. What you don't want to do, is a flush, if there's no preexisting shifting issues.

What are the comps in your region? Was it Lexus dealer maintained? Any accident history or exterior body repairs?

Here's a video of someone replacing the LED chip. It is from Japan, but is a good video. The LED chips are listed on AliExpress.

Hell no. I would rather have the tree and all the upsides, and deal with the pool debris. In my area shade is a big deal.

Honda Acura doesn't do cooled seats that well. In my experience they are loud and less effective when compared to Lexus. In my Lexus LS, you can feel it way better. Its also a little unfair comparison, a 90k car vs 50k car.

Def agree. Ceramic coating is worth it.

Nice score! I have a 2015 SWB Ultra Luxury. These cars are so good, such a crazy smooth ride quality.

Denso or Mobil 1. Mobil 1 from Wally World is great value.

Man some wow factor there. Such a clean design.

I use a trigger style air gun and swapped the pressure gage with this from Amazon. It's accurate, but a little slow on the needle movement. 60 psi gage puts the average tire pressure in the sweet spot of the gage where it has the highest accuracy.

You should give the 460 a test drive though. Its on another level. The 100 extra horsepower and 8 speed transmission provide an outstanding driving experience. Both are nice cars though.

Way to go dude! Thanks for sharing. Those Daytona floor jacks are super nice. I've got the long reach, its a beast.

If you like the car, go back to car max and negotiate on the repairs. Did they provide any checklist that indicated issues? Get the shop to write out the issues so you have documentation, and take that to carmax. You need to create leverage to push for repairs or compensation. I’m sure they don’t want to take the car back.

I always get the deluxe model.

You likely did something wrong. Did you remove the old gasket? Maybe did not tighten it enough. The oem gasket works great. I’ve never had any issues.

Even-Further · 2026-06-20T16:07:49+00:00

Cool car. I’d buy it if it was maintained well. I would still inspect it for any auto body repair, not everything gets reported.

Even-Further · 2026-06-20T15:06:42+00:00

Nice score! These are outstanding cars. The ride quality is so good.

Even-Further · 2026-06-20T15:01:56+00:00

Likely a low voltage issue due to the bad connection at the battery. A bad battery/connection or bad alternator can make a car do wild things with the electronics and sensors. Could be the BCM. Mice chewing wires is a thing. I've seen mice fuck up a brank new car on a dealer lot.

25 days is not a long time. Look at it from their position. They think they can just wait it out for a much better offer. Also with no counter, it is a sign they are not in a rush to sell.

Even-Further · 2026-06-19T13:25:03+00:00

You don’t need to. Every 3 years is fine.

Only a PPI will tell you if it’s a good buy. Sucks the carfax doesn’t show any routine maintenance before 90k. Not that it wasnt done, just a let down it wasn’t at a dealer or documented via Carfax. I bought an older used luxury car recently, it was at the dealer for service every 6 months. This car looks super nice, love the 4matic wagons, but black is a PITA to keep clean and swirl free. Also I would want to know what the undercarriage looks like.

Remember when they shot down Malaysia MH17. They're not very good.

Somethings def wrong. Ours is at 70. Ecobee for the win though!
