I believe I have found out whats wrong with mine! did a test from this place I found online that does Accumulators here let me just copy and paste his instructions from his website Lexus advises that when you change the height setting from ‘low’ to ‘high’, the oil level in the AHC reservoir should lower by more than 7 graduations on the reservoir (new accumulators will change level by more than 12 graduations.) I tried it and mine only does 3 graduations so I think the accumulators are flat if I understood this correctly

I have an 470 with 140K mi and am told that new actuators and struts are the fix. But dealer quoted $7500 for this repair. Anyone reading this know of a less expensive fix?
