HATING the 2026 LC Suspension - Very busy & unsettled - Anyone else feel this way on this year?

[faylix]

How many threads about this issue do you have @blkcctsent ?

*EDIT: how many first time posters do we have in this thread?

@faylix - So far 6 people have felt the jittery, unsettled suspension.

one other post when I first got it then another after 3 rounds of tires - Stock Suspension has a tight bouncy feeling that vibrates in cabin - Normal?

I count at least three. Don't forgot your thread trashing Toyota dealers for not escalating your 'suspension issue'.

And I haven't even bothered to search your user name by threads / posts you started. I wonder how many other threads you have even posted in.

Of those 6, how many are first time posters in this community? More than half?

I know once you learn how to use a hammer everything looks like a nail, but a long time ago I worked in Psyops and corporate influence stuff.

You smell funny.

It’s a person unhappy with a product. People in that position often post about it a lot. I don’t think there’s any conspiracy here. You are funny though

I'm not calling him a duck.

I just said he walks, acts, and looks like one.

Go take a quick look at his post history.

Time to sell and move on! Life’s too short.

Bro has been complaining since he got here in October 2015. Sell / trade / give to a needy Chinese citizen with excellent social credit ... But don't just sit and stew!

Interesting description of being both too ‘firm’ & ‘bouncy’…

That's a head-scratcher for sure.

It actually is consistent if you understanding what they’re describing. A very firm suspension can jitter and bounce on bumps where a very soft one absorbs it and results in less rapid movement. Not much of a head scratcher at all.

Totally possible. What people could provide feedback on is their perceived “speed” of these bumps that seem to piss off a certain group of owners. Almost certain these are all minor bumps where the shocks don’t get moving. Over speed bumps both slow and fast I see no issues.

But what if you are the duck on the opposite side of the spectrum. You smell funny. I'm on to you.

...Toyota says they refined the ride - whatever that means...

I have not seen this documented by Toyota, can you elaborate?

 

[ranma21]

Do people not test drive these things before they buy them? I can't believe the number of folks here and on the FB LC250 page who complain about stuff that's so easy to experience during a test drive...

Well, I am one of the idiot who did not test drive or even look at one at the dealer before I buy and have it shipped back from out of state. And guess what? If I have test driven one, I probably won't buy one LOL. Coming from 80, 100 and 201 and still have them. I prefer the built quality of those better especially the ride refinement on the 201. However the look and tech are great on the 250.

I think the ride is smooth from the driver seat, but my children and wife have complained about the ride in the back seats. I can confirm their issues and concerns, very floaty and sways on turns. Makes my daughter car sick on very windy roads. Definitely not the planted refined ride of the old 100s/200s.

My daughter just complaint the rear seat sucks as well as she grew up in 80, 100 and 201. Upon inspection, I was surprised to find the rear seat bottom is very hard and much thinner than previous generation LC.

Welcome to the asylum.

I'm wondering if someone with a 2026 LCLC that has no problem with the jittering and shuddering can check the mark number on their front strut assembly. Mine has a mark number of 48510-60591. The documentation that I can find for the shock absorber assembly 48510-80D43 says mark number 48510-60560. I'm wondering if I got the wrong shocks? It's a shot in dark I know but just throwing it out there to see if someone can check.

Just and FYI but Toyota switched shock and spring partners ships from Tokico to Bilestein and springs from no sure to OME, so this could the reason for different part numbers and characteristics?

Any idea why?
