Good Morning, I have been a long-time reader of this forum to help troubleshoot problems I've run into or learn more about certain aspects of the car. I have a 2013 GS350 F Sport with about 118,000 miles on her. I finally have run into a problem I cannot find specifically addressed. I will start that thread separately but just wanted to introduce myself and say hello. I absolutely love my car!
Hi. I'm a new member. Had my 2015 Gs350 since 2019 tho. Occasionally Google search lead to read this forum about the car. Especially front bumper conversion to 2016+ style bumper, wheel fitment and brake caliper upgrade. All of which in process now including getting new paint. Here is a picture of what it originally looked like.the day I bought it.
RCF OEM Caliper in Black gloss. Most Lexus dealers have them on sale online for roughly $350 each. And rotors are like $80 each. The problem is they cant tell you what color they are. But I believe all 2015 RCF calipers are black so thats what I'm going for. I have the rears(not installed yet). Ordering the fronts in the next few days.
New to the group but it feels like home!

Just got mine yesterday. been waiting for nearly a month for shipping!
Just tell us some basics! 1. 2012 GS 450h F-sport 2. Silver outside. Black leather interior 3. Japanese import so no working NAV, No ML but i do have RADAR CRUISE - which is why i waited for this one 4. RWD 5. Dynamic Rear Steer 6. Planned mods - Well it is early days (like day 1) but I will likely get the Apple Car Play mod done so that i can have NAV etc via the phone. Also need to fix wheel curbing and get better tyres eventually. 7. What other cars were you considering? What did this replace or add to? I considered a BMW 330e but couldn't bring myself to go european and spend a fortune on mainentance!

I was considering the F30 330e or the G30 530e but those sensor horror stories and expensive hybrid battery replacement deterred me. Previously owned an E90 330i and a F10 528i.
DAMN happy with my 2012 GS350 now.

Nice! What do you think of the CVT? Not sure I'd like that myself but many on here seem to love how the hybrid drives.
Hey everyone just wanted to say hello just got my hands on a 2015 GS 350 F-Sport. Been eyeing the 4th gens since they came out. Luckily for I was in the market for a newish used car I was finally able to purchase the car I've been wanting for a while now. I am very happy with the car. I got what I wanted, unfortunately we got hit with some rain this morning in LA and to my dismay I entered my car to find a water leak on the driver side A pillar. This is the only issue with the car after 2 weeks of ownership. I am hoping somebody here can provide some guidance. I posted a picture of where the leak is ...
Here is the area that is leaking water ... It seemed the faster I was going this morning the more water leaked from this area. I was driving in the rain if that helps in diagnosing anything. I am hoping someone can give me insight as to what possibly can be causing this
