GarageScout Take

The August 2024 service is unusually substantial for an LX at this mileage, covering the timing belt, water pump, crankshaft seal, brakes, valve-cover gaskets, and exhaust manifold, followed by shocks and steering work. Black is uncommon among observed examples of this generation, while 277,900 miles sits near its high end. The 2009 left-front accident, 2002 to 2005 Carfax gap, cosmetic wear, damaged interior, failed amplifier, and underbody corrosion temper that maintenance record.

Strengths

  • Second-generation LX 470 with factory locking center differential, Adjustable Height Control, power sunroof, and folding third-row seating.
  • Timing belt, water pump, crankshaft main bearing seal, brake pads, valve cover gaskets, and exhaust manifold were replaced in August 2024.
  • Recent service includes shock absorbers, A/C compressor, front axle components, and tie-rod ends.

Watch For

  • Carfax reports minor left-front damage from a December 2009 accident; the report also has a 2002 to 2005 gap.
  • Exterior chips, scratches, dings, worn clear coat, a cracked passenger-side headlight, and scratched wheels are disclosed.
  • The cabin has seat wear, patched tears on the driver's seat, stained headliner and carpets, worn trim, and a gouged rear door panel.
  • The amplifier needs replacement, and some corrosion is present on underbody components.
