Hi, dealer reported that one of my rear shocks was leaking and as a results, both were replaced. After replacement, the suspension feels different - not as buttoned down. It appears that the damping rate of the new shocks are not the same. Will follow-up with the dealer to find out if the correct PN was installed. Also, I do not notice any different with setting to Sport + which is supposed to firm up the damping. Anyone else has a similar experience?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Thanks. I forwarded the procedure to the dealer mechanic. They have had my car for a few days. Hoping they address the problem successfully. They gave me an RX 350 F SPORT AWD. I was not expecting to like it as much as I do. But it is really an impressive effort from Lexus. The steering is excellent, the ride is really smooth - best in class, it feels very maneuverable, corners fairly flat, comfortable seats, great sound (the Mark Levinson is much better than the GS). The 500h - the sportiest version with rear wheel steering - might just be my next vehicle instead of the LC 500. Lexus really hit this one out of the park.

Hopefully they'll get it corrected for you.
