I just bought the carfax reports for the month so if anyone needs me to run a VIN just PM me with the # and an email address to send the report to.

Does anyone one know where I can get the right(passenger side) valve cover for my '01 LS? Changing my plugs and VCGs ended up costing me more money than I thought. At the local dealership they want $269 CDN and at Team Ford in the States its $162 with shipping, but I will have to pay duty and...

Awesome to know!!! I have the sport but Ive never gone that fast in it.

Thanks guys. I looked up the parts on team ford's site and sent a quote to five star ford, but Im from Canada, do you know if the parts would be charged duty coming across the border???

Parts for the LS are expensive as well, not sure how much lexus parts are but i would think the LS would be less. With the 2000 LS having 188k on it, I would think that you would be making repairs, unless the owner has sunk alot of money into it already. If you need a reliable car with cheap...

Thanks. How would I decide whether to replace the coils or not?

Ive read many posts on here about the common issue of the leaking valve cover gaskets. My LS has been smelling of oil burning lately when Im stopped at lights. The smell comes through the vents. So since it was a bit warmer today I decided to go outside and take a look. I can clearly see the...

Im not sure if its the same for all cases, but my LS detected that the problem was fixed and it reset itself within about 10 mins of driving.

I know that ideally I should have snow tires on my car but for the amount of snow we get during the winter its not enough to spend the money on them. I have about 200 lbs of weight in the trunk worth of stereo equip, and i think the LS handles fairly well while moving but my main issue is...

I love my car but man is it ever a piece of crap in the snow. We had about 3 inches of snow last night and it took me an hour to get it out of my girlfriends driveway(about 200 ft long), then I got stuck on main street at a stop light and had to get someone to help push me, then this morning I...

I have the exact same problem, everytime i stop at a light i smell the burning through the heat vents. I guess I will have to replace the valve cover gasket and plugs? Approx. how much would I be looking at spending? Is this important to do right away or can it be let go for a bit?

Ive been searching for awhile for other lugnuts and ive done the searches to find which ones to get (Sebring lugs or the improved lincoln ones) but the websites that have them will only ship to the usa. I can't find any in Canada that I know of or a website that will ship to me. I dont really...

Mine is doin great. Has 98,000 miles on her, only issues Ive had happen since march are calalytic converter on drivers side and a leaking taillight. Love my car!!

Yes, this is right. Its the light on my trunk lid, not the outer light. Its leaking from somewhere on the rubber seal. I guess my best bet is to try the rtv sealant and see if it works. It just started I believe so there is no damage to it. I called a guy I know at another dealer and he...
