Hi, just bought 2001 UL and I am very happy. But there are some issues:
1. From 50mph-70mph there is vibration AFTER wheel balancing was done.
2. Front left door speaker is ckracking when I add more volume.
3. Rear deck speakers (2 and 1 sub) do not work.
4. One sensor in the front bumper on the right sometimes is going crazy showing me that I am close to something although I am not.

Now, questions:
1. What else it might be except the wheel balancing?
2. How do I take off the cover to see the promlem?
3. What could be the problem (harness loose from transporting, fuse blown) and how do I disassemble the rear deck without braking off clips?
4. How much is it to fix?

 

Hi

1. Buckled wheel, buldge in tyre, badly balanced, worn suspension bushes etc
2. Buy a manual on cd off ebay explains how to remove everything, you will break it if you try.
3. Lexus speakers are known to give up if people have the volume right up... new speakers needed.
4. Lots of money, they are not cheap, contact dealer for best price.

Good Luck

Pete

 

I'd say the shop didn't balance the tires correctly. Front left door speaker cone seal is ripped, you need to remove the door panel and caulk the speaker cone it to reseal it. There are no speakers in the rear deck, they are in the rear doors. The sub is the only rear deck speaker, and if it is not working, check the amp. Also check to made sure the FADE control on the stereo head unit is not set incorrectly.

 

I agree with ancdmd I had the same problem had to go to two different places to get the tires balanced right.
