So the Lexus service dept sent me a text saying they have a fix for the hood flutter and they ordered the parts.
Anyone know the official fix?
Also having his service dept research the 1inch lift on 2025s see if it’s possible.
Many different opinions in many forums I’m just curious what the answer will be.

My local dealer "fixed" my hood flutter by taking it to a body shop where they glopped more glue in there. It improved the flutter problem but didn't fix it. I also do believe that the flutter has come back a bit in the time between the fix and now, as if perhaps the adhesive is failing or separating over time.

These hoods need a mechanic fix.

I have an appointment with Lexus next Friday for the hood fix. Based on the below.

I went for my 5k service and decided to address the open TBS. Dealer couldn't replicate the brake noise (that I only get from time to time), couldn't replicate the transmission slag from 1st to 2nd but were able to replicate the hood flutter. After which the service department checked and said there is a nationwide shortage for the kits with an undetermined ETA... Unbelievable!
