Thank you very much! I was a little happy for a second there thinking i had a more reliable newer engine 😞

Please dont jynx it! Im on the look out for a IS200 to swap for it though

Or maybe its January 2008 (01/08) and the 2011 is a coincidence

Hello all hope you are doing well! I was wondering if anyone knows what this sticker is to do with? Im a little confused because it is dated 2011 even though my car is a 2008 Any help appreciated!

Hello all, Just been thinking about all the problems associated with the IS220d and i was wondering did any of them ever get fixed from factory throughout the years of production such as a better head gasket design, more reliable injectors, 5th injector, DPF etc? I currently have a 2008 model with 101k with no problems as of yet apart from seized caliper pins in each caliper, i would of liked to keep it as long as i could but the thought of several expensive problems as ticking time bombs is putting me off. Thanks

Glad you got it sorted and sold your spares! I bought the exact same kit as that from ebay and i wasnt able to use the bigger boot (for top pin) because it was a tiny bit too small on the inside (top pin wouldnt pass through) so just had to reuse old boot with new pin

Haha just taken from a different forum with still no answer its for a Is200, i also have a is220 thats behaving itself these days do i need a different part number for the is200? Thank you!!

As shown from this stolen picture.. the bolt head spins but it just wont come out 😞

Hello all! I managed to snap the nut side of the rear anti roll bar bolt and i was wondering where i can get a new one? Ebay? Can you buy them as just a single bolt? Thank you!!

Lexus IS220D 2008 Just hit 100,000 today on my way home from work, 5 months and 4000 miles in so far, great car shame about the mpg 😁

21mm spark plug socket and hammer for the guide pin boots finally worked, happy to have it done

Decided to head out and get this sorted, 20 minutes later everything is cleaned, greased and back to silence! Happy days! Thanks for everyones advice 👍

Going to attempt this in the morning, at least you are all sorted now!

I have ordered a set of pins for the rattling side, hopefully this weekend it will be sorted! I currently have the 2 shorter pins in without the rubber bush and my caliper is just knocking about as i go over rough ground even though everything is all tight. My rubber boots for the guide pins that fit into the mounting bracket are not fitted properly so i would need to sort that out also

Thank you very much for your help
