Which Chick?
Anyway, Grabber's concern here is not that he is gay, but rather that he appear to be gay to the anonymous passer-by, an admirable attention to superficial appearances over substantive actuality, unusual in a married guy.

So when are you taking the PB home?

I am supposed to pick up mine tomorrow or Latest Saturday. Yes I pulled the trigger.

03 White Gold Crystal/Ecru. Can not get gayer than that. But heck I do not give a darn. It is at the Lexus shop takling care of the TPMS and VSC lights, Serpentine belt and a missing brake shield.

Am excited to post pics.

I am so happy I have another car to work with.

Tons to do.

Tranny drain and fill.
Differential drain and fill.
Power Steering flush.

I can not wait!

As usual many thanks to the SC430 forum! Looking forward to adding some knowledge (but I know I have to get more than give).

Thanks guys!

Hi Mandy,

Re: Yes I pulled the trigger.

Welcome to SC-Land; sometimes nutzy but always entertaining.

I am a firm believer in that there are never any dumb questions, only stupid mistakes. And there is a lot of knowledge about these cars on this site; some of these folks are very helpful & truly amaze me at times.

My '02 is also white w/white interior ( and I really don't care what Lexus wants to call the colors ).

According to my 02 FSM ...you should use Hypoid Gear Oil API GL-5
Hope this helps.

Great thanks. In my case, ATL, SAE 90 should work.

Thanks guys, We bought the 04 pebble beach!!!!!, my friend sold the 2002 black same day for $18,000

The mile is actually 80,000, final price $21,000 due to the miles & my friend's hard work. Condition is 9/10. Everything thing is serviced by a Lexus except the timing belt. The navi was also update with the 2006 DVD with 2003 DVD for spare.

Does the 2004 pebble beach rim also painted in Azure Mica Peral????? Will post picture soon

Thanks for this instructions. I am draining as I type this. The oil looks good and smells ok. Once I removed the drain, the drain has a thick accumulation of metal fines, I will post pics. Glad I drained.

Question, I will need to fill up but since I lifted from the rear, when I removed the fill bolt, oil started to spill. How will I fill up with rear tilted? I may end up underfilling. It will be hard to fill when car is on level ground ??

Any advise?
