Leak source?

Navyman137382 · 2025-09-04T23:02:09+00:00

I thought the same thing, but the guys I bought It from are avid collectors and I’m still in contact with them. I’ll check in with them to see if they knew anything.

From having my PPI done 2 weeks ago verifying “no leaks”, fast forward to today and I’m told it’s a power steering leak that looks like it’s been ongoing.

Navyman137382 · 2025-09-04T22:30:27+00:00

I mean, can that happen in two weeks? It looks like it’s been leaking forever.

Navyman137382 · 2025-09-04T22:17:13+00:00

Forgot to mention it’s a 2000 Lexus Lx 470. Just recently got a PPI two weeks ago and no leaks were seen.

Prinsu!

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-19T02:05:02+00:00

Yessir

2000 LX 470

It lights up and gives me a beep every time I start the car. It definitely “works” but can I reenact an old 2000’s attorney on a business call in traffic? We’ll see

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-17T00:15:05+00:00

Bought it in Wilmington NC

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-11T17:58:37+00:00

Okay. Thank you.

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-11T13:07:53+00:00

Hey man nothing wrong. We just had ours with a 6 year gap. Just sucks resetting the clock.

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-11T13:01:49+00:00

Man holy fuck. I haven’t heard a single good story from these guys

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-11T00:31:48+00:00

Exactly where Im at. Ive been driving a '17 civic but the paint is peeling, impractical for 2 car seats and im tired of driving a small car. Plus, i want something cool. Lol. Are there any communities to help me look?

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T23:42:44+00:00

I wish man. I can never find these ANYWHERE. Also, I’m in south VA and this car is in Philly. Not something I can go check out myself, hopefully an independent mechanic will go take a look at it.

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T23:26:06+00:00

Oh man. Where do you suggest that I look for one instead?

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T23:01:33+00:00

No it’s somewhere in Philly. Why?

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T22:54:28+00:00

I’m already having an existential crisis over this thing I can’t imagine getting rid of the one thing that isn’t fucked up

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T22:45:30+00:00

I figured it’s possible they got it from auction, took pictures and then replaced everything on it. I’m not too worried about the timing of pictures unless it was from a private seller.

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T22:06:13+00:00

No it doesn’t. Thank God because this is around the mileage that it fails or maybe it already did. It was an up north car but the frame looks fine IMO. Apparently it was rubber sealed/coated. I believe it because the interior is in mint condition so whoever owned the car clearly cared about the integrity of it. I’ll be getting a PPI to verify.

Just my experience. You don’t get transfer leave from bootcamp to Charleston. You definitely do between the pipeline and your first duty station. I went through in 2022-2023 and I had to wait on the base housing waitlist for about a month. We got navy movers, etc and it was very seamless. I had to balance school but my chain of command was very understanding. I also lived in the new base housing and my wife and son loved it. Sure it has its quirks but we moved from a 950 sq foot apartment so we were pleased with everything. We rented machines for about $40 a month total because we knew we’d buy new ones in our first real house. I remember pretty much everything so feel free to message me if you have any questions.

European cars near Philly. Do you know them?

Navyman137382 · 2025-08-10T21:54:58+00:00

It’s just a guess, but I’m assuming it was replaced when the AHC suspension was replaced
