Radiator & Alternator Parts numbers
ThomasLexus94 replied to Davey Blueeyes's topic in Lexus SC430 Club
Cheers, I am also looking to replace the radiator on my '04 SC430 and the parts are confusing. Denso 221-3175 according to some US guys and my SC says Denso 122750-7020 -
Thanks, I do change the intro music for most videos (if you see my Yaris Hybrid video for example). I will check out Neil's website and see what I can use for the next video 😄

I would love to see your SC in person one day!! Urgh I used to have 'cheap' drones (£300-400 mark) but I lost both when filming years ago and I don't know if I could justify forking out £1200+ on a DJ phantom etc?? 😛 Aww I would love a 4 post lift but my garage is too low for that hehe Oh I will check that out for music cheers, I am always looking for new music!!

If it helps I put new rubber on my car earlier this year as they were quite old tyres. Hmm clacking would suggest suspension to me but I am not an expert. Perhaps guru Neil could save you ?

Hey everyone, December time now in Scotland and I have my SC430 in the garage most nights. I have 2 annoying things happening right now; #1 sat nav now doesn't read disc (and it has been fine since I got the car in March) #2 The roof is starting to squeak when I raise and lower it. I am still enjoying the car overall and grateful for the forum for the help over the months. Thanks, Thomas 🙂 Ps I also made an in-depth video on my SC430 if anyone wishes to see it? (link below) otla

Thanks, mine has started to squeak today when I put the roof up & down.

Hey everyone, I hope you are all well? Sorry I haven't been as active on this forum the last month or so. I have been driving my SC430 quite a bit recently and I am now past 134k miles (almost 135k at time of this post). I am pleased to report the car is running well and the hard top is sure getting its work cut out for it from the torrential rain we had here for most of October! I am still trying to save up to get my exhaust replaced/fixed but other than that I am enjoying the SC. I have been frequently travelling from Helensburgh to Bo'ness during the week and its been fun in the morning but on the way home the headlight illumination on that back road to Balloch is like having 2 candle lit lanterns. I made a short video on my car at this mileage as a sort of update as well as a bit of video enjoyment for SC430 fans.

ThomasLexus94 replied to eddiea1's topic in Lexus SC430 Club

Ps: Eddie, I don't want to put you off with my last post Eddie, it was just what I experienced 🙂 The SC430 is a great car and I love cruising in it roof down! If you are not aware I have a YT channel 'REV LEXUS' for my Lexus cars, there's a few on my SC430 and my experiences with it over the recent months. It might be of benefit to you (just thought I'd let you are of it). Here is a link to one of my SC430 problem videos if you are curious: -
Pics look great, car looks awesome too! You can't beat a highland cow!

Hey all, I hope you are all well? I am still loving my '04 RX 300 and Lexus Glasgow loaned myself their new RX 450h F Sport Takumi. It got myself thinking about the technology & how far Lexus has came over the last 15 years or so! My main thought is however, the second gen RX can be had for around £3-5k these days and the new RX 450h that I tested was over £62k! I know we all love our Lexus RX models regardless of year, I was just thinking with regards to everything the mk2 offers is the mk4 worth £55k+ more? What are your thoughts on the RX? (I've seen/heard from some of you great prices that you guys have paid for 2nd gen RX models)

Thinking about buying an SC430 - any tips
ThomasLexus94 replied to eddiea1's topic in Lexus SC430 Club
Hi Eddie, I bought my SC430 in March (virtually from Facebook marketplace). The main issue/common problem is the water pump (& I believe cambelt) that needs replaced every 100k miles or 10 years. (the v8 is an interference motor so if it breaks it damages components vs the V6 motors). I have had issues with my O2 sensor (still ongoing to resolve) and with the age of the car just check the radio works and the roof works 🙂 Some owners put the cars on normal tyres as the run flats can be a little firm. I hope this helps?? -

Hey everyone, I am not long back from taking my Lexus SC 430 around the north coast 500 (NC 500). I actually managed just over 700 miles in 3 days in the SC. I highly recommend the route to anyone that is yet to travel around the north of Scotland? My top tip would be to top up your fuel when you can as the petrol stations are few and far between! Please see some photos of my travel below 🙂 Enjoy, Thomas
