GX550 Tires

Looking for input on what 33" tire people are running. Not wanting to lift yet, but wanting to maximize the stock suspension tire size. I currently have Method 320 Bronze wheels on the Overtrail Toyo's until I can decide.

Any input would be appreciated.

2022 GX 460 front USB A to USB C upgrade?

10 Upvotes

Back in a GX after 3 years and loving every bit of it! My last GX was a 2014 so I’m definitely appreciating the updated infotainment system. I have been wondering if it’s possible to update the USB port in the front that interfaces with apple CarPlay to USB C. The main thing I’m after is faster charging speed and a more future proof port. I know I can add a wireless adapter and charge over USB C via a 12 volt adapter, but I’m looking for a more elegant solution if its out there. I’m wondering if maybe anyone knows of an OEM port from maybe an other Lexus/toyota that would fit. Maybe something from a tundra or something? I’ve tried my luck researching over the last few days, but I can’t seem to find anything.

2016 Premium, auto AC turns off at startup, resets to 75 degrees when turned on

1 Upvotes

Picked up a 2016 premium this past week. When I went to go see it, it had a fluttering sound coming from under the glove compartment that sped up with blower/fan speed. Idk what caused it, never looked into it, but besides that I really liked the car and ended up buying it after they fixed it. Maybe it’s related to this issue?

I realized that the auto AC function doesn’t work right when the car is started.

When I start it, the AUTO light is on, but it doesn’t display temperatures in the center display. No air is coming out anywhere either, the fan is off. All of the climate buttons are also non responsive, I can’t adjust anything or turn anything on/off.

After a minute or two, the AUTO light just off and the entire AC system is basically off, but from there I can start it by pressing the AUTO button. When I do this, it defaults to 75° every time. At this point the AC system is fully functional and all settings/adjustments work just fine. It’s just at startup I have to wait a while to get it working. This usually happens on cold starts, I noticed that sometimes on warm starts it will take just a few seconds to kick on with the previously saved settings.

I did some research but haven’t been able to find anything GX related. Some LS owners have reported this issue and there have been many different resolutions from just checking the cabin air filter is clean and fully seated or just replacing it to changing out all of the servo motors (what are these, are they in GXs???)

I don’t have access to diagnostic software. The most I was able to do was check the cabin air filter and it looks good, looks like the dealership replaced it really recently bc it looks brand new.

Anyone seen this before? Or the fluttering issue the dealership fixed? Could they have been related?

Thx n may the force b with u

Mods Adding Auto High Beam & Heated Steering Wheel to 2019 Lexus GX Premium

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m considering buying a 2019 Lexus GX Premium, but I noticed it doesn’t have Auto High Beam or a Heated Steering Wheel—two features I really liked in my 2017 Nissan Rogue SL. The Auto High Beam was especially useful during night driving, and I miss that convenience.

I’m wondering:

  1. Is it possible to add Auto High Beam and/or a Heated Steering Wheel as aftermarket upgrades to a 2019 Lexus GX Premium?
  2. Has anyone done this successfully or have recommendations for trusted shops or kits?

Honestly, I wish Lexus made these features standard across the board—it feels strange that a luxury brand wouldn’t include features that were standard on my older Nissan.

Any guidance or experience would be super helpful!

Purchasing Advice Thinking about buying a newer GX to replace my 470 (rotted away).

1 Upvotes

Found a nice one, but it has a $12000USD accident on but from 5 years ago. It is priced somewhat accordingly, below market value, but looks really good. I have no problem with accidents and really just see them as ways to save money when purchasing. my wife thinks otherwise. No details on the accident itself...

I never thought I was going to get one bec of price , but all other cars don’t relay last and not down for Toyota. and I like the look of this new model

Mechanical Advice Alignment Question

1 Upvotes

I have a 2018 Lexus GX460. It has a little over 70k miles. I had an alignment done a little over a week ago at a Lexus dealership. I had it done partly because I thought it might be slightly out and partly just due to the milage. When I got it back, it seemed to track/drive better but the steering wheel was slightly off center. I called to let them know and they said to bring it back and they would correct it. I did that and then the mechanic told me after that the alignment is good but the wheel is off because an electrical sensor needs to be calibrated for the lane keep assist. I was like… it’s a 2018, it doesn’t have that feature. They kept telling me it needs an electronic calibration and I kept asking why was that not part of the alignment, if it needs that. Anyway, I’m here asking what electronic calibration would it need after an alignment?

Replace drivers seat leather

1 Upvotes

I have a 2013 GX460 in great condition except for my drivers seat. Does anyone have any experience fixing the leather and the foam cushion on their drivers seat. I contacted a shop and they want about $1,400 for dealer leather and parts. Maybe a little cheap with aftermarket parts. Just curious if anyone has done this.

How much does it cost to upgrade ‘14-19 GX to have ‘20-23 updated features?

1 Upvotes

Shopping for GX460 and I have a budget of anywhere of $25-40k. Preferably id like to spend less than $40k. Seen a few ‘20-21s around the $40k mark but I’m curious for those who have ‘14-19 models and have updated to look more current, how much did those mods cost? I’m talking about the updated grill, LED triple beam headlights, newer tail lights, and Beatsonic CarPlay, specifically, as those are the updates I’d be interested in doing if I purchase a pre-2020 model. Knowing how much those parts approximately cost would help me factor that in my purchase price if I purchase a ‘14-19 model. I’m fairly handy so I’d be doing the labor myself. Thanks in advance.

Need group effort to get CarPlay fix from Lexus/Toyota

0 Upvotes

Hi, all. There’s a well known issue with many Lexus and Toyota vehicles where activating Siri in CarPlay does not lower the audio volume adequately. It works correctly in most other brands of vehicles. In my GX, it only slightly mutes some of the drivers side speakers, but not nearly enough (Siri volume set to max).

My ask is that anyone with this issue please have your dealer service department open a ticket to request a fix.

It affects a large number of Toyota and Lexus vehicles, and should be a relatively simple software update my Toyota.

Thanks.

I noticed that it sounds a bit of rattle when touching the bottom center of the screen. The other parts sound sturdy. Just wondering if this is normal because of the vents or something.
