The MOT has just expired... worth asking about that?

Did the issue get resolved, Peter. And assuming, yes, was it the tracking?

Hello All, Just in case someone has any thoughts. ( A forum search didn't show up anything for an RX. ) My beloved but old ( 19 years ) RX300 this morning developed a wobble. Having been out and about, with no recent problems/garage work etc., just as I was nearing home, I noticed a steering wobble. It occurred as I was driving, though I was not braking or doing anything untoward. It reminded me of when you drive slowly and quickly turn the steering wheel left and right. I was holding the steering wheel steady but the car at about 35+ MPH was veering left and right. It did not feel safe, so I slowed down and fortunately was within a minute of home, so drove slowly and parked. The almost new tyres all look fine and the car corners/heights all look fine. I guess it's steering related? There is a garage nearby but not sure I relish the short journey. If anyone has any reflections...?

+1 I tend to agree. For me it would be too much stress and hassle and ... not knowing. The car SHOULD be near perfect and it appears to be less so.

Buzz words - hate them. "Carbon Neutral", "Sustainability", "Zero Emissions" etc. When I see these statements on social media I often politely ask, "What do you mean when you say...". I NEVER get a reply. Perhaps they don't know?

... mine didn't fail, but it was on the way out on my RX, so I had it replaced with a new Lexus part.

Did you manage to change it, Brandon?

At every service I get my calliper pins checked and re-greased...

Similar to me. Never worked out why... I tend to listen to other media in a car.

On Google it says the garage is, "Permanently Closed"? Odd. Variable reviews for the garage itself.

Not under-control horses can be an issue... ( I like horses but only when respected and behaving. )

Probably not related, but I always change tyres in pairs ( or in fact all ). It just makes sense to me - unless money is an issue.

I know on my RX the shim could be bought separately... Maybe ring up a dealer and ask the Service Department?

To me the question is... can you live with it? If it drives you mad, maybe return it? Lexus might then fix it and all is well. Or ...?

I'd like to 'moan' about posters that post one or two posts only, with a car issue, receive LOADS of helpful and supportive advice, accept it all and then NEVER update on whether the advice was useful/the problem was resolved - even when gently prompted for an update.

I'll moan because it's cold and misty. But later I'll fire up the wood burning stove and it will be warm and bright - inside at least.

Breakers yard? eBay? Local garage?

Is the Nav., system trying to take you somewhere? Maybe check if you can cancel it?
