Are you sure? There was a rumor there was one a while back but I checked and they said there wasn't. Can you get a number?

I've seen the TSB (TSB2618) for the new accessory drive belt tensioner assembly.

Some customers may experience an abnormal noise from the engine accessory drive belt area. An improved accessory drive belt tensioner assembly has been developed to keep the tensioner pulley in alignment with the other pulleys. If the tensioner pulley is out of alignment, use the procedure in this bulletin to address the customer’s concern.

It's for all these vehicles:
2008 GS 460
2008 IS F
2007-2008 LS 460
2008 LX 570

Unless it's making noise there isn't anything to worry about. FYI - this is the Canadian TSB.

Lexus may have changed up the belt assembly for 2009 but I couldn't be sure.

I just dropped off my car at the dealership and they said they didn't have a TSB for my car (purchased in late June) and he said there wasn't one on the few 09's that are out. I asked him to ask around anyway to be completely certain and he said he would check it out and let me know.

thanks for the follow up bigmike! keep me posted on what they say about the 09.

He didn't have a record of anything on the 09's. He said since so few were out, they had no noticeable problems

On a side note, the Lexon front lip looks bada**! completely changes the front look of the car
