Bouncy ride @ high speed - please help!!
Hello all! I just bought my first Lexus and am new to these awesome cars so I am here to ask for any guidance you can give.
I bought an '02 LS 430 with 90k in really good shape. I seem to feel like the car has abit of a bouncy ride @ highway speeds. More pronounced when I go over an uneven road surface...are the shocks the problem? Also can I use full synthetic oil on this ride? My next step is do do the timing belt, water pump etc....wanna start her fresh!
Last question...for now. The color I was told is called Midnight Pine, is this a rare or unusual color for an LS?
Thanks in advance for all your help!!

The wear is even, no cupping. Feels like I lose control of the steering if I go over a bump at high speeds other wise smooth as silk! How do I know if I have air suspension?

If you have air suspension there should be a swith (hi/normal) below the cd player cover.
