I just purchased a ls460 2007 with 22K miles and we have heard an engine clicking noise on idle. It appeared to be a lifter type noise. The dealer in Bossier City, La. states that there is a service bulletin and major engine work is required. Fortunately for me I purchased this car through Lexus and it is under warrantee. Not exactly sure about the fix ....new intake valves???.. reprogram computer....does anyone have this problem and knows more than I do?

My engine also makes that clicking noise, but I understood it is the direct injection system making the noise and it's normal.

Can someone post the actual TSB, or provide a ink to the document?

I have the same exact problem, is it a big deal to get it fixed? Where can i get a list of all the T.S.I.B's?

There's no "fix" for the ticking noise. It's the injectors and all dealers I went to said it's a normal thing. Hopefully they're using different injectors for the 2009 models.

Thanks for the update, it will be really nice not to hear that type of noise coming from such a wonderful car!

Is there a list of all of the todo's for the '07 like upgrade to 7.1?
