Creaking car (under the dash?) in cold weather
Hey guys,
The weather dropped recently and for the past couple of weeks I've noticed a creaking sound around the dash/door. It sounds like it's coming from around where the change compartment is and is more noticeable on bumpy roads and going a bit faster (40mph/60kmh+) and with the S+ engaged I'll take it in to get looked at (sucks because I'm 4 months away from my next service and hate going in for small reasons like this), but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I remember a thread about it earlier.
Other recent gripes include that the fit on the body panels seems to be becoming more inconsistent. I've always had the issue with the read bumper expanding in heat, but now I'm noticing the front bumper and fenders have somewhat inconsistent gaps.
I hate complaining about little things like these, but I'm used to Lexus not having any of these issues. Frankly, this is part of the reason I picked the GS350 over the E-Coupe and the A6.
I'll update you guys when I hear back.
