Default List of TSIBs?

Hey everyone...

I bought a used 2007 IS250 about a month ago and am loving it so far. I'm new to cars but have been reading around the threads and notice that there have been several TSIBs for several different issues.

Does anyone have a list of all the TSIBs so far so I can maybe get this car to the dealership and get it up to date??

Edit: Oh and I have noticed the link in the FAQs but it seems to be out of date? I see 3 TSIBs listed but I think there might be more (like the mirror shaking?).

You want more?

Let's put it this way:

If you have a concern, get it fixed. Get the TSIB.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. You don't need ALL the TSIB.

You'll have to pay for one of the sites with the most up to date TSIBs, however, don't be that guy that brings 15 TSIBs to the dealer when you aren't experiencing the described issues. What I mean by this is, if you aren't having specific problems, it would be a waste of yours (and your dealer's) time to try to get TSIBs done. If, however, you are having one of the common problems (e.g. brake dust, Aux input static, etc) then a search on CL should do you just fine. I've had 4-5 TSIBs done, all of which I found more than enough info about on CL through searching.

That is exactly what I did because I was delighted to find fixes for existing issues with my 250. I had the Seat Squeak, Dash "noise kit," In-line Noise Filter and brake TSIB done and I am very happy. I have not experienced any other issues yet and I am very happy to have a quiet car again (LOL). No real complaints with the 2gen. I have not had the mirror issue, headliner rattle, glove box etc., and I would not bother the dealer unless an issue is evident. Most dealers need to experience the issue even if a TSIB is available.

As other members have stated, I would only take advantage of a TSIB if a problem is evident. You don't want to open "Pandora's Box" and create more noises or issues based on having the dealer remove your dash for no real reason. For good measure, I posted below my service record.

1) Massive Brake Dust on front (due to high friction brake pads) TSIB#
BR002-006
Parts: 473301- F DCS BRK Pad
04465-30400 Pad Kit, Disc Brake

2)-Rattle in center of dash, right behind center channel speaker (popping
noise)
- Rattle on passengers side of dash, right under inspection sticker
Rattles: Performed TSIB #NV003-06. NV50148 06IS250 and IS350
Parts: 08231-00801 Noise Kit
08231-00810 Wind Noise Kit
Labor: Applied TSIB NV003-06 NV5014 A 2.20. Removed instrument panel and
insulated panel clips, HVAC ducts, and defroster nozzle.

3) Whining noise with IPOD connected to 12V port and vehicle driving:
TSIB AU001-07 (basically a in-line noisefilter)

4) Front driver seat squeek below lower cushion:
TSIBNV001-06

Yeah I don't plan on doing all the TSIBs, just the ones I'm having problems with. So far I have the mirror shaking and the front brakes are squeaking so I saw a TSIB for that as well.

Thanks guys

Could be how they place it either at the port of entry, or the dealer.
