Ahhhhh ! You just have to love the Japanese Luxury car! Have to change oil every 5000 miles and NOT use good artificial oil, use the inferior dino oil. Go there to the dealership and sit there because they do not provide loaner cars nor transport to somewhere. And then pay $175 for the oil, an inferior car wash, tire rotation, inspection of a lot of little things, and filling the fluids and tires. I did have them check the grabby brakes which also grind when cold and starting out, and they were fine and functioning normaly. The squeaky noise in the trunk opening thing that started about 5200 miles is a faulty trunk opening motor. Wow! Such a delight! I am thinking maybe American cars are better than this and cost half as much, or maybe go back to the Mercedes that costs half again as much but breaks down every 3 years and strands the proud owners by the side of the road. And the Koyoto accords?? Dealer says DO NOT use ethanol gas in the 06 LS430.
