5K Service + Warranty Issues on my LC250

@Kai__Larsen · 2025-04-03T16:16:36+00:00

In case anyone is wondering what their air intake in the LC250 looks like. I recently removed all my fender lines and exposed it. It's a much more different design than on my 5G 4Runner. This intake is longer and seems to have a small filtering system on the bottom. Now I need to figure out a DIY solution to cover it back up after I trim my fenders as the liners won't go back on how Toyota made them too. And unfortunately to my knowledge nobody in the US makes a snorkel for the LC250 yet. Although I have thought about trying to get one imported from AUS. Anyone imported a snorkel yet?

So I just got my Land Cruiser back from the dealer for its 5K service and also some warranty work for some little issues that I wanted addressed. Unfortunetly, they dealer was only able to really fix 1 out of the 4 issues I had with the vehicle. I made a full video documenting the issues which I will link below.

Issues

Break Squeal: Loud screen when backing up. Seems to be worse when humid
Driver Memory Seat Not Working: It was never set up so it never saved.
A-Pillar Wind Noise: Excessive scratching sound coming only from the front passenger a-pillar.
Micro Door Rattles: Just plastic-on-plastic sounds you can hear when the radio is off.

So it was a bit frustrating that they could only fix the driver's seat and not the other issues, especially the break squeal.
