I just bought my 2008 last week and ALREADY got the noise on the center console dash speaker and my car has only 21k miles on it...

kinda pissed..
after working all day on it to get this now sucks =(

I found this pdf at least if its any help for someone

 

got it fixed under warranty, supposedly the middle portion of the speaker pops out whenever it get much juice.. so they just replaced it =)

 

1. Carbon buildup
2. Dash Rattle
3. Navigation Dead
4. Aux-in buzz

 

My navi is frozen, im repairing it today on my own...

 

apparently that aux is a problem on all models..

because my gf owns a 2012 and had to REPLACE THE AUX because it wasnt being recognized when the cable was plugged in

 

I bought a 2007 Lexus IS 250 AWD in July this year. When I make rather sharp turns (more often when turning left than right, and more often in reverse than in drive) I get a heaving and hard popping in the front of the car. It is progressively getting worse, and is particularly bad when the car isn't warmed up. The service tech at Lexus Spokane explained that there was probably nothing to be done with it. Everyone who knows cars and sits in my car explains that something is seriously wrong with my AWD. They compare it to an old truck that has been put into 4-wheel drive, and explain that "no lexus should ever do this."

Any ideas? Please help!

Thanks!

 

There is a fix for the aux buzz. Lexus added a in-line filter. part cost about $150 if your out of warranty. Why is your gf using the aux jack. Your model year should have the usb plug.

 

I get this in mine too (RWD), usually when pulling out of a parking spot or making a u turn. Basically any time the wheel is turned all the way, thought it was my axles going but they looked fine when I inspected them.

 

I'm new to this forum and I desperately need help! My vehicle is an 07' Lexus IS250. I've never had any problems with it until now. Every time I press the brake to start the car, the button does not turn green. If I keep pressing the brake, it gets suctioned to the floor. Before I would just lock the car and leave it alone for a moment and when I would come back, the car would start fine. Well, the brake has not reset itself and its been about a week now. No problems with the battery or any of the fuses. Oh and my brake lights don't work either. I'm thinking that ties in. Advice is greatly appreciated!!! Thank you

 

No power...

 

So were you able to get the car running or not? If not, since you have no brake lights, does the dome light even work...meaning, a dead battery?

The brake pedal will normally get very stiff after a few presses with the car remaining off. When turned on, a vacuum source is introduced to the master brake cylinder releasing most of that pressure making the brake pedal feel normal.

 

Could be wiring to the brake switch? As niether the ignition or brake lights are getting the signal that the brake pedal is being utilized? Good place to start maybe...
Also if your break pedal goes to the floor and gets stuck there before the car starts I would even look at your brake pedal linkages. Perhaps something has come loose rendering the switch inoperable...
