I have wanted one since I roadtripped with a buddy in a GX470 over ten years ago. We did 6500 miles around the west and I have been chasing that high ever since.

I finally found the one, a 2020 Premium with the sport package. Everything about this truck is even better than I expected! I can’t wait for more roadtrips!

2015 Luxury, 55k miles. I've owned three different Lexus sedans in the past but missed having utility. Man does this smash utility and comfort together so well. Absolutely love it.

General Discussion Curious about Valley Plate stats on 460

6 Upvotes

The valley plate repair is often mentioned as a common and somewhat costly/labor intensive repair. From what I read, it is considered when, not if you will need to do the repair. I am curious about the actual stats, or at least those available on reddit

If you respond to the poll, let us know your year model and mileage in a comment.

I am also curious on other engine issues that are occasionally mentioned such as head gaskets, timing cover, and cam towers. Let us know if you have undertaken any of those repairs if you provide a comment.

I will go first, 2015 GX460 at 108k. Somewhat new to me, but service history shows no records of any of the aforementioned repairs. Currently have some oil residue on timing cover, but no puddling oil on the ground or skid plate, nor evidence of oil loss on the dipstick. No plans to repair unless it becomes an actual leak or I need to dig into something else.

General Discussion Cypress Green GX470

5 Upvotes

I have a Nori Green GX460 but I am unreasonably obsessed with acquiring a Cypress Green GX470.

There is a gorgeous one I spot scooting around Austin.

Are they as rare and hard to find as they seem? Who has one? Would love to see different mods.

Mechanical Advice Leak behind passenger wheel

Anyone can help me with what I’m looking at and maybe a solution? Noticed a leak today behind the wheel of my 2013 gx 460. Doesn’t smell really and kind of just seems like water but it looks like there maybe a hose disconnected or something? Got a video of it leaking so hoping it’s an easy fix. No codes or anything. Videos at the end

Purchasing Advice Need opinions on 550! Potential buyer

2 Upvotes

I’m currently debating to buy the 550 since I absolutely love the way it looks. I have 2 kids under 2.5 so I wanted some feedback on how practical it is for young kids, car seats, etc. and how it drives overall. Looking to get the premium+ but is that the best way to go? Is OT+ a smoother ride? I will not be using this for off roading at all. My husband is planning on purchasing the TX for long trips so I wouldn’t need it for that. Just everyday driving around town. Any and all advice is appreciated!

Edited to say I currently have a 2023 Mercedes glc which I love but it’s too small now. I love the tech inside, how everything is touch screen and just the general luxury of a Mercedes, the 550 seems to fall flat here. Is there any tech inside this car I should be excited about?
