I ain't bootleggin my battery...when it needs replacement, I'm getting the 28800-38150 part number like I am supposed to..especially with the car being CPO through 2017. Don't need some battery that wasnot made for the car with a bootleg jumper wire to defeat an electronic control that is supposed to be connected to it...just sayin. Until he posts pics of his battery setup and the wire, this convo will just continue

I am beginning to wonder if lxurious actually put in the die hard in the 600. He might not be aware that who ever did it, just put Lexus battery in his car and he might not even know it.. I sent him the pictures.. I am trying to help others.. he does not seem to want to help.. He scolded me for saying "I would not trust a sears technician with my LS 600".. and said that if I go to sears, any sears tech is as smart as or better than Lexus tech and sears tech would know.. So, just be cause he gave me that lecture, I did go to sears and they had no clue... He now says that he does not know which sears tech did it.. Well.. according to him, sears techs are so smart.. they should be able to tell him, by looking at this car.. I have no problem that he doesn't want to help.. but I can't forget the lecture he gave me about how good the sears technicians are and that they are as good as the Lexus technicians - even though, I politely reminded him that Lexus techs have access to lexus software, manuals and training.

i'd call the last dealer again and give them the part number that CJITTY listed if they can confirm the cheaper price (via email or fax ) so u can walk in a buy it with no hassles.. then i'd haul butt an buy it there before they realize theyre under selling the battery..
