    Did first gen LS's come with the seat belt reminder option?

    Hey all, I'm giving my cousin the LS for the weekend and would like to enable the seat belt reminder option. I remember trying to do it on my first LS (00 v6) but to no avail. I currently have another 00 v6 LS and am curious if it will work or if I will just be wasting my time. Was this ever an...

    Weird RPM drop then increase while coasting

    Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've last posted since I've sold my LS, but luck has it that I stumbled upon another with lower miles and better condition. However for the past few days I am noticing that while I lightly tap the brake pedal to slow down just a bit while coasting down the...

After months of searching for another car to fit my budget, i stumbled upon an 00 v6 LS with 97k miles on it. Its in beautiful condition but needs a grille and windshield. Other than a few other minor issues...

    Oil in coolant?

    Hello all, I was thinking about buying another LS and returning to LvC. I see an '03 v8 with fairly high miles (176k) but the car is in absolute mint condition and the guy is selling it at a bargain price. The issue is: Oil in the coolant but no coolant in the oil. While I know this sounds like...

    FS: 00' v6 Finally putting her up for sale

    Well guys, I finally bought out the bimmer and I can say that I will no longer be needing the LS though the times we've been through. Lots of good and new parts on her. The engine is solid as a rock and the tranny is good despite the solenoid pack. I just re-did the whole front end suspension...

    Attempted carjacking, now interior lights flicker at random times.

    Hi all, my LS was targeted by thieves who attempted to hot wire it but obviously miserably failed. After reconnecting all the wires to their appropriate places, I had a hard time to get the car to start since they messed up quite a few things. Long story short, the car runs as it should but now...

    Cruise control worked now not working

    Hey all, I replaced my clockspring and that didn't resolve my cruise problem, so a quick scan with forscan pointed me in the direction of a bad cruise release switch at the brake pedal. After replacing it my cruise was finally working again. Now a few days later it quit working again. After...

    Perhaps a first on the LS?

    I just finished installing this puppy (equalizer) onto my LS, what do you guys think? I haven't had much time to tune it right but it does make a darn good difference. Sorry for the low quality pics; it's getting around 10F here in NY and my hands were getting cold from the lack of the DATC and...

    gen 1 and gen 2 strut/shocks interchangeble?

    Title says it all, are they? I'm looking to replace my shocks on my 00' ls v6 non-sport. I'm down to the point where my rear end is slipping and sliding when i corner the highways of NY in rainy weather. The front is nice and firm while the back is dancing around.

    LS Sudden death? HELP!!!!

    Hey all, after work I drove my LS home and went inside to run a few errands. I then returned back to my car where I noticed that none of the functions of the car works; I am stumped. My battery tests fine (tried it in another car) and it started right up without any problem. No lights, no alarm...

    Found some pretty cool stuff with Forscan

    After reading the threads, I bumped into one recently that mentioned the use of Forscan with a bluetooth ELM327 adapter. So i decided why not, and after two days I received my Bluetooth ELM327 adapter (thanks Amazon :D) I did some poking around with the software and decided to test the DDM...

    Harsh downshift when stopped

    I had the transmission replaced a few months ago and all was fine until recently. If i brake hard and bring the car to an abrupt stop (that "oh $#i+" moment when the light turns red right and you're going a bit too fast.) the tranny feels fine; however after a few moments (30-40 seconds) the...

    How rare are these back seats?

    I've been looking at some gen 1 LS's and noticed that they don't have the retractable head rests in the back. What also boggles my mind is that neither did my old interior have this design, but my parts LS does. Maybe the previous owner did a gen 2 swap on the interior?

    Jumping the ship on the LS, it's been a great run guys

    As all things, they come to a point where you'll have to decide if you want to keep it or lose it. After experiencing life with the LS it is hard to part with her as she was my first car and had I thought I might have had a future with her. Just spent $800 for a tranny a few days ago and now the...
