IS-SV: The car developed a misfire around 90K.
After 3 weeks at the dealer and help from Japan the car was diagnosed that cylinder exhaust valve/spring #3 wasn't seating properly allowing blow-by/hesitation/rough idle and misfires.
The car runs strong and I must commend Lexus standing behind their product all the way.

Ok Guys are you ready.................115,000 miles on a 2006 IS 350 down here in Miami. I just replaced the stock battery. It was the only time the car didn't start when I pushed start. I love this car and I plan to push it to 250K before I treat myself to another Lexus....No Doubt. If that doesn't tell you this car is a masterpiece than I don't know what else to say...
See Ya!

currently 4months owner of is350
just past 12K miles in 4 months. looking to drive about 30K+ a year until car dies.
I have weird clucky noise on driver side rear wheel area. Lexus says they just can't hear it even though it is pretty loud. No accident. No heavy loading with passengers and cargo. Still in process to fix the problem.
Minor rear window area noise that can be fixed but i'm just too lazy...or busy ... haha

06 350. 67000 miles. Oil changes every 7500mi.. TSB for cold engine start rattle. Brakes at 28k and 60k. Stock tires replaced at 47000miles. No other issues, other than just typical wear and tear and dings and so on.
Some minor rattles in my rear driver side door, attribute it it the HKS hipower exhaust I put on in April. Sometimes a small rattle in dash, but very intermittent like maybe 1 trip out of 50. Only mods other than exhaust are JoeZ since new,and a ISF rear sway at same time as exhaust. Until I did these two mods I was going to trade my car.

Yeah, I love my car so I drive it everywhere all year round
40 miles commute each day, 100 miles commute on the weekends, and a few more road trips up and down the east coast and the miles adds up haha. Very enjoyable car though.
