2010 GX460 problems, new owner, previous Lexus ownership.
I purchased a 2010 GX460 with 112K miles in the Fall of 2020. I have some issues that are becoming difficult to solve.
I have owned another Lexus, an RX330, and always serviced my vehicles at a Lexus dealership. I purchased the GX460, used from a non Lexus dealership.
I immediately took it took the GX for a 100K full service and checkup. The vehicle had been serviced at the same Lexus dealership and others Lexus dealers, and non Lexus shops prior to my purchase.
My Lexus dealership found some mechanical things, but said the vehicle was in good overall condition.
Some things that I cannot correct yet.
1) My Glovebox will NOT stay shut! I have taken almost everything out, but the plastic latch just wont keep latched, especially under acceleration. The mechanism is way below Lexus standards. Thoughts? Help?
2) My cars HVAC interior fan has a noticeable noise or whine in the middle fan position or higher. The dealership said they bont notice that, but replaced the interior air filter and cleaned out some debris inside it. But I still hear the sound. Is this normal?
3) There is a notice wind noise from my front doors, window or windshield, is noticeable at 30mph and higher. Could this be a windshield insulation issue or door insulation issue? Ideas, Help?
4) Recently, Navigation & Electronics will go off and then come back on, with the Enform system resetting. 2 times this reset my preferences.
5) My keyfob will randomly not work first try or two. I had a new battery installed in the fob, and this still happens randomly.
6) Intermittent wiper sensor doesn't work on intermittent settings. Wiper in slow mode.will come to stop at when stop at stoplight or stop. It works fine when driving or moving in low or fast speed.
7) I cannot locate a center console organizer solution for this specific vehicle. Anyone got any ideas? Anyone, anyone? Buehler?
Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions!
