Several Updates on Outstanding Issues:
(Lexus of Pleasanton-CA)
Outside Temperature Gauge:
Service Manager: There is finally a replacement part being produced and should be available within in the next month.
1-800-25Lexus: "Not heard of the problem"
Vibration at 60mph or 1700RPM:
Service Manager: His Senior Tech just got back from training in L.A. and there is "an investigation underway by the Tech Team".
1-800-25Lexus: "Haven't heard of that problem"
Clunk in Rearend at a Slow or Stop:
Service Manager: "Not heard of the problem"
1-800-25Lexus: Rep said that "they know what it is" and are awaiting instructions to address it
You're guess is as good a mine!

Just took my GX in for the 1000 mile check up. Addressed the vibration issue with my mechanic who went for a test drive with me. He felt it immediately and said it was strange. He then spoke with the service manager who indicated there had been a number of complaints regarding the same and that they were going to place a call to Lexus. I am to address this again with them at the 5000 mile appt. I am wondering however....I thought I read on one of these threads that the transmission was changed for 2004. I informed my salesperson of this, who was not aware. I am now wondering if I misread. I know the suspension has been changed but has the transmission also been changed? If so, where can I find the details so I can email my salesperson? If they cannot find a fix for the vibration, I want to negotiate the purchase of a 2004 and need all the ammunition I can get.

I haven't heard anything about a transmission change. You can read the press release about the '04 GX here:
