Hi,

Has anybody had there steering rack replaced due to notchy steering ?

I have a minor issue where the steering feels like its got stuck when driven at motorway speeds in the straight ahead position for a while, it usually shows up after about an hour. It feels like you have to apply more force to the wheel when changing lanes and sometimes after long sweeping bends you have to apply more force and then it over corrects, almost like being stuck in a rut. The steering is fine at all other times.

I've googled the issue and there appears to be a bit of info out there regarding other Lexus models, ISF particularly, with this issue and Toyota models in general, but I can't find anything regarding RCF's having it as an issue - mine is a 2015 RCF.

I suspect it will be the same as the ISF. I had the rack replaced in my ISF because of this. My RCF never suffered it.

It’s a horrible feeling. Get a Lexus tech to drive it on the motorway to experience it.
