Sorry to hear that. Was it purchased new? What is/was the mileage when the problems showed up? What region do you live in please? I am considering a used 2004 LX470 and would appreciate your further comments.

lisao1.
 
this is really surprising. I have been monitoring the LX/Land Cruiser boards for a long time. I own a 2002 Landcruiser. I haven't met or heard from anyone else with these kinds of problems. I guess you really got unlucky. Did you buy new or used?

I purchased the car new in Pittsburgh, PA. The problems started almost immediately - I think the height sensors went before I had 2000 miles on the car. I think 'unlucky' is the key word. Despite the multitude of problems I have had, I love the vehicle. The truck looks great and the ride is very smooth.

Glad you still like it. I will be looking for a 2004 in my area soon. What year is yours and how many miles? Did you have to pay for any of the major repairs? Is it working all right now?

Here's a link to more pics of the new land cruiser. I'm thinking the new LX will have a very similar appearance. Lots of camouflage but you get a good idea of the dimensions and overall shape. These are the newest pics I could find... anybody have anything fresher?

Some folks on other boards are claiming that Lexus may give a sneak peak of the new LX at the New York auto show.
 
Couldn't come soon enough.....

From looking at the spy pics of the 2008 Land Cruiser and 2008 LX, it seems that the basic platform is still shared, but the LX has taken the Lexus corporate look like it's smaller sibling the GX.
 
Frankly I was disappointed by the bulbous and rounded look of the new Land cruiser. I have plenty of minivans to choose from . No need to plonk down 60K to get a minivan. Looks like they were still competing with the previous generation Tahoe/Yukon when they designed the Landcruiser replacement. The landscape has changed since then.
 
I have no doubt it will be a fine truck if you can get past the looks only a mother can love. But it is important to me.

Mine is a 2004 with 41,000 miles. I did not have to pay for any of the repairs, in fact, my dealer is extremely accommodating. He has not seen an LX with so many problems (so he says anyway). It is working great - for the moment...

There is NO more LX..... There is NO more Land Cruiser..... Toyota and Lexus are getting rid of the two and making the JX. Why don't people get it???? My Lexus dealer says we'll probably see it Jan-Mar 08 shortly after the new Sequoia.

Thanks
 
The Consomer Reports annual Car Issue just hit mail boxes yesterday. It shows the 2003, 2004, and 2005 LX with worse, to far worse than average suspension problems. Most everything else gets very high ratings with an overal "better than average" rating.
