Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by pmkarlmrine: 4:14pm On Jan 07, 2013 |
Hello people! My engine check came up recently. The engine is bringing out black smoke and not entering o/d. I had it scanned and got these codes p1133, p1153 and p1346.... My mechanic want me to change the vvt sensor on bank 1 and 2. please I need some help before doing that although I do not agree that the vvt sensor is the cause of the black smoke and excess fuel. please help |

Oxygen sensors, VVT Sensor? likely...do not throw his advice to the wind. Not really familiar with the Lexus brand, i'm getting an oxygen Sensor for my BMW puffing little amount of dark fumes,the sensor was removed without my knowledge when i worked on the exhaust...so check your oxygen sensors, and possibly your VVT... |

Hello yung, After changing the air/fuel sensors, drove it for awhile and the check light came back on. scanned it again and got the following codes p1133, p0171 and p1346... the p1153 no longer appears what do you think thanks bro |
Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by yungboss(m): 6:53am On Jan 09, 2013 |
before you replace your MAF, test it with another MAF (Mass Air Flow Meter) to see if the code P0171 goes...the car is suspiciously running lean, insufficiently supplying fuel/air. It may also be as a result of dirty air filter. A female colleague of mine has that car, she told me a few stuffs about those codes. What year is your RX? I think it is still kicking up codes for Oxygen sensor...P1133 |

Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by OJtech2(m): 10:25pm On Jan 10, 2013 |
can you give me the year of manufacture of the vehicle and let me give you my take to it. |
Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by pmkarlmrine: 9:48am On Jan 11, 2013 |

let me start by letting you know that all the codes you have here will make your car consume so much as you have said. p1133 and p1153 has to do with your a/f sensor which you said have changed, and i believe that is why the p1153 is not coming up again. however when p0171 is recorded, the actual air-fuel ratio of the car is on the lean side. let your mechanic work around the followings. air intake(hose loose), fuel line pressure, injector blockage, heated oxygen sensor(bank 1,2 sensor 1)malfunction, mass air flow sensor, coolant temperature sensor. hoping that your thermostart is still intact. p1346 i will strongly sugest that you change your vvt sensor. gud luck |
Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by pmkarlmrine: 10:57pm On Jan 14, 2013 |
Thanks Oj for your advice However, after clearing the codes, the p 0171 keeps coming up. My mechanic has checked for leakage, but none seen so far. He's quite not sure what else to do but advice that I changed the MAF sensor.. After a little prolonged driving, the p1346 comes as well |
Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by OJtech2(m): 7:39am On Jan 17, 2013 |
in that case if the p0171 persist, change the MAF sensor and vvt sensor, if no solution still, you can call 07081583525. gud luck |
Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by pmkarlmrine: 8:31am On Jan 17, 2013 |

Your mechanic is absolutely right. After maintenance, you'll need to run it for 2 to 4 days to have the smoke cleared. If it persists, replace the MAF |

Unfortunately I have posted links with pictures that might help but they have been hidden(you may have to check with the Mod. Basically those Lexus are know to have cracks on the exhaust at manifold or near the O2 sensor, you need to rule that out first because is common. |
Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by pmkarlmrine: 7:09pm On Jan 18, 2013 |
Hello Sultaan, thanks for your comment. However, can you please repost the pictures for my viewing? I will check for exhaust leakage around the bank 1 thanks again |

Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by cardoctor(m): 8:52am On Sep 18, 2015 |
pmkarlmrine: The VVT sensor may as well be the problem if its already showing on the scan. The rule of thumb is to first clear the codes and then put the vehicle through a long drive cycle to see if the check light comes up and via a scan, indicating the same codes. The VVT sensors can actually cause misfiring, poor ignition timing and black smoke followed by higher than normal fuel consumption. All the best. Car-doctor |

Re: Urgent!! My Rx 300 Smoking Black Andconsuming Fuel Seriuosly. Help!! by OROZ(m): 11:20am On Sep 30, 2015 |
I've solved a couple of this black smoke issue before, an rx300 n 2003/4 highlander both had the same issue, symptoms to nothing, engine oil turns completely black fast, discharge of complete black smoke from exhaust, the exhaust smoke has a little smell of fuel, then ur check light comes on, when u scan it shows some codes indicating catalyst. Solution. I dropped the complete exhaust system of the car changed the two catalyst pots n sensors on them, that was all n reinstalled the exhaust, that's what stopped the black smoking n fuel consumption problem, for the Lexus rx300, it cost me 110k while the highlander cost me 150k, hope this helps you. Thanks engr Bob 08034094226, relocating to abj soon |

My lexus rx 300, '99 model is experiencing this same prob. I did scanning and I got the following report: P0171- System too lean Bank 1 P0100- Mass or volume air flow A circuit C0301- Please refer to vehicle service maual P0141- O2 sensor heater cirucit Bank 1 sensor 2 P0441- Evaporative emission system incorrect purge flow P0446- Evaporative emission system vent control circuit. After clearing, only P0171 was still showing. Please I need your suggestions and ideas on fixing the problem. PS: I just replaced my exhaust net (or what's the technical name for it now) but just discovered yesterday that it is still leaking somewhere. Not welded it yet. |
