Lexus IS 2014+ :: Have A Dent In OEM Fender


Aug 2, 2015

Backing out of a parking spot today and as I was turning I just bumped into one of those yellow concrete pylons (obviously didn't know it was there). So mad at myself right now. I was planning on hitting up the dealership's collision department tomorrow and a local bodyshop to see what they'd charge for either popping the fender back out or if I'd be better off getting a new OEM fender. I'm sure I'll be neurotic about this until it's fixed - and even then I'll want to make sure it's not noticeable at all. There's a slight paint chip on the bumper where the fender meets the bumper, I'm hoping that's easily fixable as well.

Prius V :: 2014 - Rusted Scrape / Dent On Roof - Fix?

I just recently bought a 2014 Prius v and it has a scrape/dent on the roof that has some rust (I knew about it going into the purchase). I was quoted around $700 to get it repaired, but I am wondering how difficult it might be for me to fix it on my own. My reasoning is that this vehicle is going to be used for road trips and car camping, in addition to being my daily driver, so I expect that it will get fairly dinged up over the course of my ownership. I'm not super concerned about the dent, mainly just the rust. So if possible, I'm hoping to save some money on the repair and just remove the rust and paint the effected area. Also, with it being on the roof it's not something that stands out that much so I'm not looking for the perfect visual repair.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Huge Gap Between Tire And Fender?

I saw most bmw and mercedes cars all have a very small gap between tire and fender. My last two cars are Lexus, one 2011 IS and the other one is 2015 GS F sport.

The gap between is tire and fender for my 2011 IS is huge, which makes the car super ugly. Anyway, IS is a terrible car, so I sold the car even before the factory warranty expires. Then I thought the gap should be smaller and the car should sit lower if I have the F sport package. After I received the new GS F sport, I realize the gap is still huge, at least the gap size is way bigger than what's shown in Lexus' ad brochure.

why Lexus don't make its suspension as short as bmw or mercedes? Or even Audi. I had a Audi before two Lexus cars when I was still in graduate school. I dont remember I was bothered by the ugly looking of the tires.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Rubbing Only On Front Fender Liners

I just recently dropped my car on BC racing coilovers 16k fronk and 14k rear. I am having slight rubbing issues in the Front only. For everyone that's dropped on coils, if you were rubbing what did you do? I currently have my dampening set on 16/32. The rubbing is actually only on my front fender liners. I love the comfort with 16/32 and don't want to turn it up stiffer and I don't want to raise it up too much. I was told to raise it, turn up stiffness or heat up fender liner and push it up or in a bit. Also for the rear since its 2 piece suspension, to raise or lower the rear 1/2 inch would you adjust the height on the BC struts or the BC springs (the one that's sitting in the bucket)? A shop installed mine and I've only owned 1pc rear suspension for my other cars.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: 2015 - Part Of Inner Fender Ripped Off On Front Driver Side

While I was driving home tonight, i rolled over something essentially ripped off part of the inner fender on the front driver's side. I think it might be a two or three piece set for the inner fender. the front section that protects some fluid tank and the headlight stuff is now gone. the top and rear pieces are damaged. I will post photos/videos tomorrow during daytime when I remove the remaining pieces (can't drive with them in). I don't know if there are any differences between the various years, but I do have a 2015.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Hit Pothole - Rim Has A Big Dent And Tire Is All Ripped Up

This evening in the dark I hit a pothole. I did not see it. It is a busy 3 lane road. Changed my tire. The rim has a big dent in it and the tire is all ripped up.

How much a new tire and rim for a 2008 Prius is going to cost? We looked underneath the car and the other parts seem ok.

Prius (2010-12) :: Repairing Ding / Dent

I was in a low-ceiling car garage when I opened the trunk of my Black 2010 Prius and it hit a copper pipe in the ceiling and got this ding. I attached a pic of it. I'm now desperate in trying to figure out how to repair it - either through a scratch remover or touch-out paint.

Dodge - Grandcaravan :: 1996 - Dent In The Oil Pan - Should It Be Replaced

The 96 Caravan I bought a year ago came equipped with an aftermarket dent in the oil pan. It's a bent up generally flat, not all at one point, but there's no leak and no other apparent problem, though of course it does reduce the oil capacity. When I had some overdue warranty work done at a dealer, the service writer told me the dent is exactly where the the oil pickup is, which mostly sounded like the dealer looking for some extra work. I decided I'd replace the pan myself when I had enough miles on the car to see if it was worth the effort.

The pan has a lower sump area that measures roughly 5" x 7" and that entire portion is pushed up somewhat evenly. I'd estimate the deepest part of the deformation is almost an inch, so less than 35 cubic inches lost capacity. 35 cu in = .606 quart.

I can buy a new oil pan w/ gasket at Rock Auto for a shade over fifty bucks to add to an order I otherwise need to place with them. A used pan at the local junkyard would cost ten or twenty bucks plus my labor plus the gasket, which I judge as not enough cheaper to be worth my time and inconvenience (they want me to capture the used oil and take it with me). So it's either buy the new oil pan, or fix something else. Or pull the pan, bend it back to shape, and replace the gasket? It appears to me that the pan gasket may be seeping, though not enough to drip, so it's probably due for a gasket anyway.

Should I care about this, or learn to love the dent?

Prius V :: Repairing Dent On The Rear Edge Door?

I have a small dent on the rear door edge. How do they repair those dents? Do I need to go to the body shop or just a rubber hummer and touch up paint? The paid on the edge is gone and metal edge is showing, scratched.

Prius (2010-12) :: Slight Dent In Airbag / Steering Wheel

This may be by design but while cleaning my car running my hand w dry cloth over steering wheel I noticed a slight bump. To the left of the Toyota logo. I'm not sure if it's on purpose so if the airbag deploys it breaks away but I just noticed it. it's a 2015 Prius 3. Rather not have the airbag go off while driving.

Caravan/Voyager :: 2008 Spoiler Jammed Into The Roof Causing Dent

My 08 T&C's rear spoiler almost broke off the van today when I hit the power door button and the spoiler jammed into the roof (creating a small dent). Is this a known issue with this year? I already broke one spoiler off shortly after purchasing the vehicle. The plastic spoiler does not mount flush to the lift gate. If it did, there would be ample clearance.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2012 / 2.5L - Rear Quarter Panel Access For Dent Repair?

getting access to the back of the rear quarter panel for paintless dent repair? This is for a 2 door 2012 Golf 2.5L.

I've heard from a few people that there's likely some sort of access point for this car but I haven't gotten any specifics. I'd rather not have the PDR guy drill a hole in the wheel well for the needed access.

I do see what looks like factory hole with rubber cover behind where the door closes (lower part) ..

Here's the location of the dent (dent itself is not visible at this resolution, but it's right at the point of the crease):

Lexus IS 2014+ :: 2014 - Remote Start With Factory Keypad Integration

I had been waiting a long time for a remote start solution to be available for my 2014 IS-250 with navigation. I finally saw idatalink released a firmware for their ADS-ALCA bypass module that allows you to add a remote start that is triggered by the factory keypad. It was a fairly easy installation and it started up right away. I do have car installation experience, but I didnt find the installation to be that difficult in general.

Golf IV R32 :: Smoke Coming Out Of Fender

Started my car early in the morning, nothing happened. I paused thinking the battery was shot, but then realized that there was smoke coming out of my fender... I jumped out of the car, disconnected the battery terminals and rushed over to see what the hell was on fire/smoking. I popped the hood expecting the engine bay to be engulfed in flames, but to find it was coming out of the inner fender. I looked down by the wheel and the brake line to the caliper was on fire.. I put the fire out and sat there with zero idea on what happened.
