I just bought a 2007 ES 350 for 4k, with 214k miles. One owner, older lady that took phenomenal care of it, all records show it was taken to Lexus dealership for maintenance. I never owned a Lexus before and its the smoothest car I have ever driven. Its SO amazing! And almost looks brand new. My parents couldn't believe its 14yrs old. Never going back to anything else.

Beautiful car! I have a 98 Lexus LS400 myself with 274,00 miles on it. It recently developed a bad misfire also. The only codes I've been able to pull up are for misfires on the odd numbered cylinders and a random misfire code. No code saying what is causing the misfire. It is intermittent though. Sometimes it will misfire terribly at idle everytime I stop. Other times it runs smooth the whole day. I take the same route everyday which is a 30 minute drive one way. Could it be a VVT solenoid, an Oil Contol Valve, or something else? I've been puzzled by this. It only seems to get better as I drive it more which is weird. I haven't done anything to it.
@youtoobe169
@youtoobe169 3 жыл бұрын

@Sc0teeBe318 3 жыл бұрын
@@youtoobe169 thanks for your input. I'll check into replacing that. I don't have a code for that but the scan tool at Orileys could be very limited in what it can pull up. I'm not sure. If the oil control valve is sticking it could be intermittent. Maybe it sticks sometimes and othetimes it doesn't. Does oil actually run through it?

They can be expensive, but overall these cars are so well built, it's ususally more minor things that go wrong. It really all comes down to what the car is worth to an individual. The $600 transmission repair on a $1500 car was definitely a judgement call, but I am glad I had that done. I think there are many relatively trouble free miles left beyond the 247K on it now.

I paid $7900 for an LS430 Sport triple black with 124K miles and very well documented service at Lexus dealers in December. Took it to Lexus for an oil change last month and they said it needed absolutely nothing, but that I may need to change the tires within the next 20K miles LOL

Do you think you would have the same problems on a lower mileage one, like let’s say 100k miles? Would you have to spend a crazy amount of money on maintenance if you got an 04-06 with 100k miles and you drive less than 10k miles per year? I’m going to be a full time college student and I really want this car but I don’t think I can cough up the money for major repairs in a span of 6 months.

The mileage really isn't important. What's important is buying a car that's been taken care of and getting a good throough inspection on it. These are generally well built cars, but age is what mainly causes things like gaskets and seals to go bad. Try to find one from a private party that's owned it for a long time and gave it blank check maintenance. If y ou start off with a well sorted one, it should provide you years of reliable service.

youtoobe169 how often do you think you have to do big repairs if you are all caught up and everything is in good condition. I can do simple jobs like replacing suspension and stuff like that but not deep engine jobs.

@@johntaki2704 Once I did the initial repairs and maintenance on mine, it's been trouble free. There aren't really any major flaws with these cars, so if you start with a good one, you'll most likely be fine.

I have a 2000 LS 400 with all options (Nakamichi, Air Suspension, Heated Seats and HIDs). It has 204,000 miles and in mint condition (almost looks like new). If I got a dollar every time someone approached me and asked me if it was for sale, I would have a ton of money sitting in the bank right now! 😂 A couple years back someone even offered me 8 grand for it. I politely told them it was not for sale! I've owned it since 2004, when I bought it from the original owner, and it's lived most of its life in sunny California. Not a spec of rust on her!! She's a keeper and going to my grave with me! 😂

Apparently you are extremely familiar with the area. As your passenger my nuts would be lodged in my throat. Anyway looking at an 02 with 120,000 miles. Ultra package with pearl paint and creme interior. Small dent in passenger front door. Minimal clearcoat on rear deck lid. $ 3900. Pretty sure I can get it for less.
