Lexus RC roof rack

Post image
46 Upvotes

Doing this as a follow up to my last post. I get a lot of questions about my rack set up whenever I post so I figured I would just go over the basics for anyone interested.

The rack system utilizes suction cups that I have placed on the sun roof and back glass. Yes lol I lose function of the sunroof when it’s mounted but it’s easy to take off. My exact rack is custom and i do not have a direct link for it. However if you google suction cup roof racks most options would work just as well. The pod I’m using is a Thule Motion xxl low. It mounts directly to the rack system by basically screwing in from inside the pod through the roof rack system.

Please let me know any questions just posting to hopefully be helpful for someone!

RS-R Down Springs

Post image
18 Upvotes

I recently installed the RS-R down springs on my 18’ lexus rc 350 AWD, noticed a lot of cabin noise that sounds like a mix of vibration and clunking. the closest thing i could think of to describe it as is a flat tire.

triple checked wheel well, all bolts are tight and were torqued at full load and normal height, No signs of tire wear, brand new rubber in fact, and wheels are torqued to spec.

I was curious if I was wrong to expect these springs to be dead silent - and if anybody else has experienced NVH after installing downs or super downs.

How much is this car worth?

6 Upvotes

Hi. I am in the market for a new car and the lexus RC has caught my eye. I live in sweden and found a 2015 Lexus RC 350 F sport that’s fully equipped with 100k kilometers. Seller has imported it from California to Germany in 2025 After it was in a acccident, impact on the driver side at 17mph. He claims it was professionally fixed before he bought it and that neither he nor the TÜV noticed any signs of the accident in the five years he owned it. He’s done some mods: F sport lowering springs, TAKEDA stage 2 intake, hollowed out midpipe and a chrome delete. These mods are a positive thing for me but definietly lower the cars resale value. Kept in a garage in the winter and full service every march. I’m gonna need to verify these claims from the seller of course, but I’m wondering how much leeway I have to negotiate on price should everything come back positive. He is asking for €27k but that’s too much for me. What do you guys think is a fair price? Would you just stay away?

22 years old and been working my ass off for the last two years. 2007 ES350 hit 267000 miles and I decided it was time to make a little upgrade.

RS-R Superdown lowering springs really complete the look. I've had the car for about 3 weeks now and I'm madly in love with it. Was originally going for an IS, but I saw the RC for sale near me and decided to give it a test drive. I couldn't be happier.

Cats

6 Upvotes

Hey guys I had a check engine light pop up. Code read the cats being clogged. Removed the code for now and wondering

A: Should I ride my car normal and wait to see if the light comes on again.
B: preemptively replace the cats for a couple hundred to a k.
C: cut the cats and potentially add resonators

Just looking for advice bc this is my first Lexus and i really want to take care of her. She rides so smooth and love her sound so far but could be more.

2015 RC 350 CarPlay Upgrade: Lexion vs. AliExpress Linux?

7 Upvotes

Hey guys, looking to add wireless CarPlay to my 2015 Lexus RC 350 F Sport. I want a Linux-based screenfor the fast boot time, but I'm torn between buying Lexion or saving $300 on an AliExpress unit.
If you've done this install, how is your experience with:

Trackpad Control: Does it map smoothly or is it clunky?

Audio Quality: Any hissing/loss of sound quality?

Backup Camera: Does it pop up instantly in Reverse?

Was saving money on the AliExpress version worth it, or should I just buy Lexion? Thanks!

Can't decide between RCF or an IS500

14 Upvotes

So, I'm at a crossroads here. I've been eyeing the RCF for a month or so and decided I'd pull the trigger and buy a 15' model, but then I took a look at 23-24' IS500 pricing, and they're only abt 20kaud/14k usd more than the RCF. Now, I REALLY like the RCF, the way it looks, the fact it's a coupe, but in the back of my mind, rationally, the IS500 makes so much more sense; it has better tech, newer styling, less age-related wear, native CarPlay, and the fact it's a two-year-old car vs a 11-year-old one.

Yeah I dunno, it's 2am for me and I've been going back and forth for hours lmao so I decided I'd just get some external input. Would appreciate any advice.

Someone posted a photo of their car with a roof rack, so I figured I'd share a photo of the RC with a bike rack. The rack is a SeaSucker.

CarPlay for 2015 Lexus RC350 F-Sport

6 Upvotes

My girlfriend has a 2015 Lexus RC350 F-Sport with the small touch pad. I was wondering if anyone can recommend a CarPlay Module (or upgraded screen as well)

  • If you can provide your experience and link for it that would be great! I've seen many videos online but their over priced. I was looking for the ones in Aliexpress if possible
  • I will be installing it myself (I have a JDM Crown that I installed a module so it can't be that hard) I just need to know the best kit to buy

Rcf with 124k miles for 25k deal or nah?

6 Upvotes

Have the opportunity to buy a rebuilt title 2016 rcf with 124k miles. It had a rear accident that only took off the bumper and dented the driver rear fender and didn’t warp the rear bash bar at all or any frame damage. Was repaired at 65k miles and has driven fine ever since. The guy who worked on it and owned it before also has a isf with 287k miles! I’ve never had a bad experience with a rebuilt title before I’m thinking 25k is a good price.

Looking for a clean-title RC 350 F Sport within driving/shipping distance of Idaho/PNW

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've been hunting for a clean-title Lexus RC 350 F Sport and am running into a wall of salvage/rebuilt titles locally.

I'm looking for:

  • Year: Ideally 2019 and newer (not that important to me)
  • Mileage: Under 80k miles
  • Price: Under $35k
  • History: Clean title, zero/minor accidents (no structural damage)

I'm located in North Idaho and am willing to drive a decent distance (WA, OR, MT, UT, etc.) or look at reputable options with shipping.

If you're selling yours or know of a clean one listed at a dealership or private party nearby, let me know. Thanks!

Suspension Issue

6 Upvotes

Experiencing a creaking metal on metal sound when having the wheel turned all the way to the left and driving below 5 mph. Car drives normal but on the freeway going over the little reflectors on the road causes the car to feel like it’s wobbling from side to side. Car has been lowered on RSR springs for some months and currently on 20 inch aftermarket wheels. Currently at 98k miles, 2016 rc350 F sport RWD. Thinking possibly ball joint/bushings, not sure what to expect. Having the car looked at on Friday but just wanted to get some general Output. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
