Re: [Club LS400at The Lexus Center] 1990 LS 400

Hi Sportbike

Re. your message on the LS400 site.

I have owned a 91 model from new !!! and it has now covered some 175,000
without any major concerns.

The only major items that I have had to replace was the A/C compressor at
165,000 ( went to an aftermarket company that supplied and fitted the same item
as original fitment but at half the cost ) and both front disc rotors at
174,000 ( again I purchased items made by the same Japanese company that
supplies the originals to Toyota but at less than 50% of Lexus retail )

I have a friend whose LS400 has covered 290,000 without ANY PROBLEMS.

It seems to me that the only item to keep an eye on is the timing belts, these
must be replaced every 50,000 ( if you don`t want a complete engine tear down !

Regards

Peter Rogers
