Why when I turn my wheel to the right on 2006 Lexus GX 470 I hear a metal scraping sound?

A faulty steering pump is the most likely I guess. You would need to jack up the front of the vehicle, support with axle stands and get underneath and above to check, whilst someone is turning the wheel. I had a strange thing like that on my ES330, and I told the dealership it was the right front, and it was a worn wheel bearing on the left rear, worn rear sway bar bushes and worn vertical tie rod bushings on the right rear! Scraping noise on left curves at 60 kph.

2000 Lexus ES300. What color HID bulb does it take? Mine looks light blue but research says yellow?

The ES300 doesn't have HID lamps unless it was a later addition. It takes standard 9005 halogen lights. https://www.lightbulbs.com/automotive/2000-lexus-es300-replacement-light-bulbs ..

I can not shut the trunk door of my Lexus rx350? It won't close.

Look at the hinge pins can you with the door open move it up and down independent of the chassy. Also look at the stricker on the frame of the door to see how well it aligins with the latch on the door , The hinge pin system these companys went with sucked and most of them went with them to save money . The good news is you can get the replacement part . The bad news is its hard to replace and it will be no better then the one that you already had the door is to heavy and the pin is week IT SHOULD BE A RECALL

2007 Lexus RX350. After I remove the key from the ignition still the courtesy lights, radio and lighters are on and off, on and off. I have to disconnect the battery every time I park the car.

Disconnecting the battery will make it worse. Take it to the dealership or a really good auto-electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer. That can pull up all the electrical issues. I suspect the body Control Module has a fault.

How do I fix my 2000 Lexus GS 300 that throws codes P0300 P0306 and P0303? The VSC ON and OFF lights and CHECK ENGINE are ON. Please HELP and see below info for details.

From the clicking and knocking, that sounds like low coolant level. It happened to me on my ES330. The block heater popped out due to a bad new replacement, they used the old bracket on a new heater. All your codes are misfires. Go to another mechanic. The popped plug can be fixed cheaply with a Helicoil Insert. Then check or replace all the spark plugs. Then reset the codes. Your reduced speed is 'Limp Mode'. From everything you say, I believe you have a coolant leak or coolant issues, which can cause misfires. I just remembered my ES had to have a new radiator about 6 years ago as it was leaking badly. https://www.google.com/search?q=helicoil+spark+plug+thread+repair+insert https://www.google.com/search?q=Lexus+codes+P0300+P0306+and+P0303 I have the FIXD Sensor and App and do my own code stuff. It is basic but does the job. P0300 Causes Multiple misfires can be caused by many reasons from a faulty ignition system, fuel system, or internal engine failure. The most common reason for this to happen is faulty or worn-out spark plug coil packs, especially if it's been a while since you had a tune-up.Mar 14, 2018

Where is the computer assembly theft warning located on the 2004 Lexus GX470.

That type of job is a job for the dealership. You need the $6,000 scan tool computer to program it all after fitting it. It is not a DIY at home job. Or if you want to cut costs, go to a local auto-electrician. On a GX-470, I wouldn't as they are so technology filled!

Where is the anti theft computer assy located on a 2004 Lexus GX470

You can't remove it! The antitheft system is a module that integrates the key, the locks, the ignition switch and the ECM as well as other ingress into the car. You have to fix it, not find a way around it. The system is there to stop exactly what you are trying to do. You need the Dealership or a good auto-electrician.

2000 Lexus ES300 hood latch

Take it to the dealership. They will have a way to pull the catch by removing the underskirt protection panels and using a tool to pull it from down below, or even remove the two bolts using long socket set extensions and universal joints. https://www.lexuspartsnow.com/parts/lexus-lock-assy-hood~53510-33240.html ..

P0451 and p0453 2004 Lexus gx 470

One word 'dealership'. They can hook it up to a pressurized smoke machine and find where the leak is if there is one. There factory scan tool computer diagnostics is also far more informative. You cancelled the code and it came back? https://www.autocodes.com/p0451_lexus.html The fuel tank pressure sensor is mentioned in this short video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj7MQbCh4UA and the second code P0453 https://www.engine-codes.com/p0453_lexus.html and videos on that one including the WD40 trick. https://www.google.com/search?q=Lexus+GX470+P0453 Faults like this are very frustrating. ..

My brake light keep beeping on my 2000 lexus had rotors and brakes done and my brake fluid is full what can be wrong

Connect it up to a High Level Scan Tool and read the codes and live data. May be a bad connection on the ABS sensor or the brake wear sensor depending on the model.

My 06 Lexus 400h move jerk forward a little bit when I'm in Park once the engine kicks on. Could you tell me the problem?

When was the last time the Lexus Dealership serviced it? It could be many things and it needs hooking up to the Lexus Scan Tool Computer. When in park, the gearbox and drive should be locked.
