Oo ok, so it might not even be type of oil but more the fact it hasn’t been done for a while. I will call Lexus tomorrow and check what exactly was serviced. Oh yeah? I really didn’t think lack of oil change on the diff would create this kind of feeling. After hearing this tho I’m hopeful it’s just the diff oil change it needs. Will deffo have a look on Opie oils. My next move will defiantly be to put some quality oil in there and hope for the best. Cheers for your help, really appreciate it 👌

I did get a major service from a main dealer not too long before this started happening tbf. Thats well Interesting though, I didn’t realise the wrong oil in the diff could do that. I will call Lexus tomorrow and try find out what oil they put in, if they put any in at all. Thank you for your help, I’ll update this post when i find out more

Maybe, but why did this not happen on the first year and half of ownership? Everything was so smooth a few months ago 🤔. How would I diagnose a faulty diff? Are there any symptoms I can look for?

Hi there, new to this so bear with me please. I have a 2011 IS-F and iv’e owned the car for 2 years. My car has seemed to develop a skipping or rubbing sensation from the N/S rear tire in the past month or so. I have taken it into several Lexus dealerships but they have failed to find an issue with the car. One of the dealerships told me it was the tracking but after having that done it still didn’t solve the problem. Has anyone else had an issue like this or know how to help me resolve mine? I only get the rubbing/skipping on low speed manoeuvres and seems to get worse the slower I go and the more lock I put on the steering wheel. Any help would be massively appreciated!
