On the LS460 You can use Techstream to manipulate each individual damper (0 soft to 17 hard), but that’s just for testing & diagnosis. I’d guess it’s the same on earlier models.

Jim any idea how I rise the suspension on each individual shock absorber? My two left shocks are lower than the right on a 460..

Any way of changing the Sat Nav and instruments to English?

I think just the fact these cars are rare and that shocks replacement is also rare, it'll be hard to find someone who has ordered them from anywhere. Did you try Arnott?  

Yep they were more expensive than Toyota! I'll order them from there!

Anyone try Aliexpress or Alibaba for them? 

Anyone know can these be opened up or are they a sealed init.

This is a genuine part, however as a result you have peace of mind and a years warranty.

I see that Mark but they could be just as worn!

Anyone use these? 

Hi Guy's. 

I need to replace one of my Air struts as the car is very rough on the road.

Any places other than the main dealer for replacement as they are €1000 per corner. 

Thanks  

Hi Guys.

I recently purchased a LS 460 but the front left seemed to have no air going to it and was rubbing the wheel arch. I scanned it using tech stream and no faults showed up.

I played around with various settings and now the front and rear is sitting down and the right side up high!

Anyone family with the parameters on Techstresm to change them?

Ok thanks guy's for the help! 

Ya the valves are fine I cannot change them as they include the TPMS! 

I am going to get them refurbished again in a different place as the first job was crap.

Kumhos are really good I use them on both cars but Landsail are a bad tyre especially in the wet!!

I had the same problem with the last tyres so when I changed them I thought the problem would go away but no even the new wheels leaked!

I then go them refurbished but the problem still persisted, I then go them to reseal the wheels again but they are leaking again..

Howdy folks.

My MK3 GS300 has air leaking from all 4 wheels where the tyre beads with the rim. I had the wheels refurbished and put a **** load of sealer on but they still leak!

They are the 17" Rim found on the GS.. Any solution to this or does anyone else suffer this?

Do not put Landsail tyres on your car they are cheap Chinese rubbish! 

Ya they are LED from factory but they are really dim unless their is a way of turning them up!

What about the Glovebox? The interior lights in the MK3 GS are really weak for some reason too. Thanks for the tip for the boot one!

My exhaust is rotten just under the driver's seat on both sides! 

What is tyre skipping?

Glad you got sorted I'm in Millstreet so not far away!

Good man John yes a boiling Battery smells of rotten eggs! Where are you located OP?

Do you know any mechanic that has Techstream diagnostics? 

The rubber ring sorted the VSC issue for me but I don't think that's your problem though.

Lovely GS and health to drive! I never seen one in that colour either!
