TRD IS300 TRD - you probably already know, but check the pin in the door hinge. Mine makes the same sound. The dealer is replacing it for me but it's on order. If the pin falls out you won't be able to close the door. My gas mileage sucks but I don't drive very economically.
9,8?? and i received delivery sept 20.
gonna bring it in for the 10K soon

May have been done before but there is a lot of new members in here. I will be maxing out my +REP in here every day for anyone that post pictures of there IS300. Please no criticism. Some people do things others may not like but it is to their taste. Let the +REP begin.
Here is my IS300...
I would like to install some heated seats into my 01. Just for comfort reasons, plus i feel like the full leather seats look much nicer. I assume all the wiring is there. Would it be as simple as plug in and get the trim piece or is there more to it? I'm not going to do it if it's a huge hassle...
I just pulled the top cover and looked at my timing belt today. It says Toyota on it, it really looks nice, no cracking, checking, splitting, etc, rubber soft, teeth look good. 2002 with 99,000 miles, I bought it at 59,000 in 2014, no service records, could be the original belt.
Anyway, much...
I like to do fast/spirited cornering or cornering without tapping on the brakes in the city. Do I need to install strut bars on my car so the chassis doesn't crack or warp?
Not sure if this has been discussed before and the problem might be something stupid simple. But recently my is300 has been terrible to drive on the highway or most speeds over 60 mph.
The car likes to "sway" back and forth in my lane and feels rather unstable when driving at highway speeds...
