#188 of 284 CD Name & Track Data Display by tom17 May 31, 2008 (6:11 pm)
I just bought a new GS350. What a great car! But when I put my factory CD's (not copies or MP3's), the system does not display the CD name & track info. I can get to the menu where the info is supposed to be but it says "". They work fine when inserted into my PC (displays info for every track). Looked thru the manual which says the data is supposed to be displayed automatically. Anyone seen this before and know the fix? Thanks. Replies to this message: richg44006 (Oct 23, 2008 5:59 pm)

#193 of 284 OIL CHANGE by sanderss1 Oct 01, 2008 (8:06 am)
Where is the oil filter located on 2008 GS350? Replies to this message: tom17 (Oct 02, 2008 8:01 pm)

Replying to: pat (Sep 25, 2008 12:52 pm) Thanks. I am interested in any TSBs that may have been posted on the '08 model am also interested in brake pad wear experience. I have heard of instances wherein conservative drivers have had to replace pads at less than 20, 000 miles! This is unacceptable to me.

Replying to: sanderss1 (Oct 01, 2008 8:06 am) Not sure about the location, but it is not a normal screw on cartridge filter like most filters. Apparently it is an element inside a housing with a special o ring seal that must be replaced, just like my first car - a 1958 Triumph TR-3a. Really advanced technology in these Lexus. Normally I would change the oil / filter myself, but in this case I think I will let the dealer do it, even though they charge over $100 for the oil change and tire rotation !!!

Replying to: sasha5 (Mar 03, 2008 9:26 am) My 07 GS350 does the same thing. Have had it back to the dealer several times and have spoken to many people at Lexus. I get the same story - this is an inherent noise with the GS 350 related to the high pressure fuel pump needed for the power provided by the six cylinder engine. "they all make that noise" is not an acceptable answer to me. I'm going to Lexus corporate next. I can't believe a car this expensive sounds like an old sewing machine at idle, and I'm supposed to accept it like this.

Replying to: tom17 (May 31, 2008 6:11 pm) Tom,   I have a 2007 GS350 as well (and I love driving the car too!). I have the Navigation/Mark Levinson Audio pkg, and it most of the time, it DOESN'T display the CD name & track info. Certain CD's will always work every time while others never display anything. Some CD-R that I burned from my laptop show Name and Tracks but others not. I haven't figured out why this happens. I have brought it back to my Lexus dealer a few times about this and they just say, it works as expected (whatever that is suppose to mean). When I put any of these in my laptops, I always see everything. Is this so difficult for them to make work?
