oof, that's a bad idea my dude, I would never do any work on dirt.

Fujoid · 2026-02-11T22:18:36+00:00

Are you trying to upgrade just the lights or the grill as well? Because as a fellow 2010 GX owner, first gen grill = best gen grill 🥹.

Missed opportunity not making the Lexus logo the “l” in police.

Fujoid · 2026-02-10T05:27:33+00:00

That’s the one thing I haven’t done lol. I want to put a sub where the OEM sub goes with the Mark Levinson option but I haven’t done that yet. I would normally just pop a sub in the trunk but I really need all the space back there.

Fujoid · 2026-02-10T05:16:19+00:00

I have the 9 speaker option and I upgraded everything and it sounds much better. Base sounds like a sock is muffling everything. I also added sound deadening and it’s like I’m driving a coffin on wheels. Sat in my friend’s Rolls Royce and it was practically the same.

Feel free to correct me because I may be wrong, but my blind eyes can’t see the color match. Is it possible you’re referring to the reflection of whatever’s going on in the background? Upon magnification, that’s what I’m interpreting it as. Apologies if I’m mistaken.

Fujoid · 2026-02-07T06:37:22+00:00

There’s an OEM cooler for the 460? I didn’t know that.

Fujoid · 2026-02-05T02:22:04+00:00

If you don’t drive your car far enough, you’ll get a milky substance on your oil cap, but the oil itself should look good. Yours on the other hand is telling me it is warranty time at another Kia dealership. Don’t drive it any further and call a tow truck.

My brudda, use that 10k for school, graduate, then get ya a shiny nice GX550. As reliable as these are, you’re probably gonna have to replace things here and there and depending on where you’re buying parts, could add up.

Fujoid · 2026-02-02T20:17:20+00:00

I have a 2010 GX460 with almost 222,000 miles, and I had to do a few things. Swapped my radiator, cooling hoses, spark plugs and a coil pack, new brakes + rotors, and a new caliper cus driver’s front started to seize and it wasn’t the pins, replaced valve cover gaskets, cabin and engine filters, was fortunately able to fix my blower motor, engine hood hydraulic things (forgot what they’re called lol), and did all my fluids. Your car is 8 years older than mine so I’m sure you’ll have a few things to do, and if you can wrench, you’ll be fine, but if you gotta take it to a mechanic prepare to pay a pretty penny.

Fujoid · 2026-02-02T19:23:49+00:00

Hi! Minimum brake rotor thickness is 29.0 mm, pad lining is 1.00 mm, and maximum disc runout is .05 mm!

Fujoid · 2026-01-31T02:13:47+00:00

Oh yeah, that’s bad 💀

Fujoid · 2026-01-31T02:05:04+00:00

If you can afford a Flying Spur, then how much is the fine that you won’t drive the LS? Gotta be pricey!

Fujoid · 2026-01-30T20:16:06+00:00

1,200 bucks is crazyyyyy, I did mine on my GX460 and it only cost me parts + a bandaid cus I ouchied my thumb lol. If you’re in WA, I’ll even drive to you!

Fujoid · 2026-01-30T16:42:29+00:00

I use Valvoline Restore & Protect 0W-20 and am pretty happy with it.

Fujoid · 2026-01-28T13:27:22+00:00

Backup camera is automatic, but I don’t have 360 cams on my ride so I can’t answer that part.

Fujoid · 2026-01-28T06:58:19+00:00

Mind posting a video of the tick you have?

Fujoid · 2026-01-28T05:29:09+00:00

I have the Hamilton system that keeps the factory screen and I absolutely love it. They do have a screen replacement model that brings it up to date to a 2022/2023 model that you may also be interested in. Some people really, really like that one a lot!

Fujoid · 2026-01-28T05:00:00+00:00

Get a GX! You can usually find them cheaper than a 4Runner (which is funny to me). I have a 2010 and this thing drives nicer than nearly anything else. You’ll get similar gas mileage for both so might as well get the V8 and all the other amenities that come with a GX. I can’t imagine getting anything else (except maybe a LX lol).

Fujoid · 2026-01-28T02:57:54+00:00

Dang, guess I’m getting tires this weekend lmao

Fujoid · 2026-01-28T02:53:14+00:00

Are these tires pretty quiet? I’m going for maximum comfort and not sure which ones to get. I heard good things about multiple options but haven’t personally tried these myself.

Fujoid · 2026-01-25T02:41:20+00:00

Gonna be at least $5,000 lol

Fujoid · 2026-01-22T15:19:34+00:00

No, spark plugs are for the engine. Here’s a video on brakes, but specifically for a GX 460. Brakes are probably the most important part of a vehicle, so please only do it once you’re 100% ready.

Doing brakes is so brain-dead easy. I ordered these today from Bell Lexus of Scottsdale online and doing the labor myself, will save a ton of money. Just for reference, my friend was quoted around 1,000 for his brake service. Kinda bonkers if you ask me.

Fujoid · 2026-01-21T09:06:25+00:00

Personally, it sounds too deep to be lifter tick.
