You are in the Lexus RX 300/330/350 Forum. Your Hosts are steve_ & tidester

The online technical specifications and the sales brochures, dealer supplied and online e-brochure, for the RX350 continue to state that the AWD system is based on the VC, Viscous Clutch, across the center diff'l. The Lexus shop/repair manuals at techinfo.toyota.com indicate the VC is NOT used in the later models, the RX330 & RX350. The following was in my email archives.... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ---------------------------------------- ...Recently you submitted a question to the Lexus Customer Satisfaction Department.

We appreciate your interest in this vehicle. Per our technical department, the 2005 RX 330 does not have a viscous coupling LSD. The vehicle has adopted a full-time all-wheel drive system. We are sorry for the misinformation. If you would like to discuss your concerns further, you can also reach the Lexus Customer Satisfaction Department at 1-800-255-3987, Monday through Friday, 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time. Sincerely, Richard Hollingsworth Lexus Customer Satisfaction Customer (Willard West) - 10/26/2004 04:59 PM The current 2005 RX330 e-brochure indicates that the 2005 AWD RX330 has the viscous coupling again. Is this actually true or is this a typo? Willard West |

Replying to: quattroporte12 (Feb 02, 2008 9:05 pm) actual date, call and have a talk with them about possibly requesting a specific type of car. I know where I live, sometimes it's just impossible to speak to someone live on the phone at the local location. So here lately, I've been making the reservations on the internet and then when I do get there the day of my pick-up, then I start to ask questions as to whether they might be able to get a certain car for me. Then again, each location may be totally different from each other as far as availability of these vehicles and just simply the way management will accommodate you. But I would go ahead and make the reservation now and then maybe give them a call as you get closer to your pick-up date. |

Replying to: rcf8000 (Feb 05, 2008 12:04 pm) I had called Lexus regarding the new "Classic Silver" color. They said it is slightly darker than the Millennium Silver. Classic Silver is still metallic however, so it will have a nice sparkle as did the Millennium. I guess we'll have to see it in person to see how nice it is.

Replying to: carlovernj (Feb 10, 2008 8:28 am) I guess so, it will look much better than the one they have now. Also, 2008 lexus has $2,000 incentive and since there is not much difference between 08 and 09, better to go for 2008 and shoot for minimum $2,000 less than invoice.

Replying to: praz (Feb 10, 2008 6:13 pm) I heard of $3,000 cash back last month, I wonder if that carried over. Someone in these forums from California got $2800 off invoice price.

Does the power tailgate on the 2008 RX350 lock automatically when it closes?
