So what happens if you have this problem with the A/C?

What are the symptoms or noises or etc?

A/C not as cool as before? Hissing noises? leaking freon?

My 48 months is fast approaching and id better get whats broken fixed before I have to pay for it.

Thanks for the info

I strongly recommend you read this point:

Warranty Application is limited to correction of a problem based upon customer's specific complaint.
These TSIBs do not apply to every RX300 made from 1999-2002. Some fall under certain VIN numbers, but most importantly, they are based upon customer's specific complaint. This means, there is a possibility the TSIB will cover it, but not necessarily.

Good luck on fixing the weird noises coming from your RX.

I have A LOT more TSIBs to publish, but I'm just trying to get a feel if people are remotely interested in these since I do not want to spend 200 hours posting every TSIB for every car model for every car year.

Ethan,

Pleeeezzzzzeeeeee continue positing TSB's! Good info for a little light reading.

Do you need some volunteers to help post them, scan them in, etc?

This is such a coincidence - I've noticed a bit (not a lot!) of oil on my garage floor and have been getting ready to take my RX in to the dealership to have it looked at. I wonder if this is the issue?

Many thanks for posting the TSIB!

Yes, PLEASE!!! I only have 5000m remaining on my warranty, just bought the truck last month, so I need to figure out which of these (if any) I need to deal with in the next couple of months. I hadn't even seen this TSB listed!

Free tsb's are a great resource. Maybe you can throw them in an directory on the site and let people just read through them all. ALL Data gives a list of every tsb and the manufacture's number to them. Maybe list them in a directory by their number and use teh alldata list as a referencing tool

Cool

911, have you given any further thought on how to share a bit more of this info for the RXs? I would be equally as interested in reading a number of them as I've recently picked up a 6/99 RX300 and have a few things to look after like the seat heaters.
