Where did you get that info?
I see no distinction in part #s/diagrams for AWD models with respect to the rotors. Unless I am missing something, you would simply be switching from 250 rotors and pads to 350 rotors and pads. AWD does not seem to specify its own rotors. Check my recent thread for part #s.
you would need to change your splash shields though. seems they have their own part #

I looked at your recent thread, I will be referencing those part #s.

Are you sure it's the transmission? A good way to check this would be to rev the car in neutral or park and see if the whine still can be heard. The V-6 engine has a characteristic sound in the GS, IS, and RC which some describe as a whine. If it's still audible in neutral, I am willing to bet there is nothing wrong with the car.

I responded to you earlier, but I came across this post and is where I got confused.

This was established in a couple other threads.
@xMdoza...if you’re looking for part numbers, I have a spreadsheet for my 2014 250 that I used to convert to the 350...AWD of course.

This was discussed before, but I forget where.
So dumb question. What are the flaps in front of each front wheel? I know not peculiar to the IS.
When I back out of a driveway with a slight slope to the street, my IS bottoms out apparently on these flaps. I am extremely careful with the low clearance, but every once and a while I have to back out of a driveway with a sloped apron. The lip is fine. Should I be concerned about any damage to the flaps?
Its only happened twice so far.

and yeah they help deflect water and air from the tire path.

Hey y'all,
Could anyone give me some recommendation for adjusting the rubber hangers holding the exhaust for a bit more separation on the passenger side. I believe this is causing a bit of a rattle when hitting some bumps/flex.
Did anyone add a flange gasket to their aftermarket systems?
Plan is to ask a friend to adjust/hold the exhaust tips while i tightening to bolts on the flange.. hopefully that can solve the height and rubbing issue.

Thanks. So this is just an alert that goes off every 5k miles or whatever the service interval is? I was wondering if there was an actual oil life gauge like on a lot of cars that takes into account time, mileage, and engine operating characteristics. My Cadillac had one. It didn't just go off after a certain amount of miles

Nope! We do not have an oil life gauge. I personally wouldn’t want one either because it’s stuck on whatever oil type the manufacturer recommends so my sisters Honda uses synthetic blend so if she were to use full synthetic the oil life gauge would go off based on synthetic blend regardless. Pretty useless. I rather do it at the mileage I want.

Overall sound is great though, no drone..

This is a RC axel back quad exhaust system.. It only looks okay because of the newer diffuser. Be aware that the tips are not the same size (inner tips are larger than the outer). Take a look into the Tanabe and Apexi exhausts for probably a better flow of exhaust tips...

Would anyone know if you can order a new oem front bumper tow hook cover in the same color as the color? Or does it all come in black or unpainted?
I try to look up the part and the part# but it does not show the color or anything.
