You have a chance to get one if you have an IS350 and had to have the valve spring recall done.

Haven't spent it yet, but probably going to finally get the credit card smart key since I want it but it's so frivolous I can't bring myself to spend any "real" money on it...possibly the IS-F (not F-sport) shift **** for similar reasons... rest'll probably go into a couple of cabin filters for future use and an oil change and a brake fluid change to save myself getting dirty.

If I didn't already own them the $ would go toward the F-sport sway bars though, easily the best mod you can do to the 2IS.

Is there a thread on this? Does this apply to the 2011 350s? Are there ANY recalls for the 2011's yet? I have heard of none.

There's quite a few threads on it if you just search "valve spring recall".

here's one:

I'd hope it doesn't effect the 2011's though, they should have fixed this by then.

I got my IS350 a fw months back and looks like the valve spring recall was already done. I purchased an extended warranty, do I get a GC?

Last time I checked with them, even though you are qualified for the GC, there is NO time table... spoke to them 2 weeks ago or so...

I used my 500 gift card at sewell.com with the clublexus discount. I was able to get the f-sport rear sway, 2010 nav update, 60k service kit (spark plugs and all), and a new accessory belt all for 497 out the door.

THANKS LEXUS!! Oh, and I just got the valve recall done on Monday and the engine feels great!!. They were able to do valve spring, and fuel pressure in a record 5.5 hours time. I was impressed.

Just got off the phone with them after previously been in conversation with them about my amenities, now I'm told i was approved but don't know what I'm available for what amenities as I wasn't included in this phase ( ARE YOU FN KIDDING ME ) even though I've contacted them since beginning of the FN year and have been in contact with that dept since 2 months ago. and purchased a ext. warranty a while back. a serious WTF Lexus....

F-sport rear sway, front GFX lip, and random maintenance items.
