I konw there is a recall for this for the Lexus is350 (13v-395) I wanted now why they have a safety recall for only the is350 and not the Is250 as well its the same safety issue.
On my 2008 Lexus is 250 at cold start it makes a rattling noise I was wondering why they only have the recall for this for the is 350 only . I know its the vvt actuator gear that is causing it .
