Nothing to fear for here. Your power steering pump was on its way out and that's why he added a thicker oil to help increase the viscosity for the pump to pump the oil around.
All you need to do is to replace the pump with original one, and flush the steering rack with fresh power steering oil.

Alright boss. Thanks

Hey!!!
I'm in trouble oo.
I took my 08 es350 to a mechanic a friend recommended for shockpad change
I instructed he also changed the powersteering fluid as I noticed it gets a faint whinny sound when I drive for long... We went to drink beer, only to come back and this mechanic poured visco2000 into my powersteering reservoir. Saying it's good and works well.

Abeg what do I do now? I've driven it for 2 days now but I'm worried

Who exactly is benefiting from an ever falling Naira? What kind of cruelty is this? In 2019, a friend of mine based in the US invested $200,000(N72,000,000 at that time) into Nigerian real estate. Now his investment is valued at about N200,000,000($135,000). Despite the fact that his naira investment tripled in value, it was still not worth it from a dollar perspective. He is now regretting his decision because he would have been better off just leaving his $200k in the bank when you consider it is now worth 32 percent less. This is an example of foreign investor they claim to be courting.



Damn! This illustration is heart wrenching

Hello everyone. Pls my Lexus es350 2010 display screen is malfunctioning. Something the touchscreen won’t click at all making it hard to start my AC or audio. If I turn the car off for some minutes it works normally again . What is wrong . I hope it’s not the screen ooo

Factory screen or android screen?
My factory screen has that problem too.
It has stopped working entirely so I use the auto AC to control the AC

The es350 comes with three cats. The one that is missing in your ride is only bank 1?

Yes . Only bank 1.
That's the one behind the engine

This is a relief boss. Thanks a lot.
So the absence of this bank1 cat will not cause increase in fuel

kingreign:


Get a spacer. It works. I've installed them on a good number of lexus and toyota. Absence of cats doesn't necessarily relates to increased fuel consumption in toyotas some lexus (yours inclusive). In toyota and lexus, its purely for emissions purposes.
Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by eightsin(m): 9:48am On Dec 27, 2023
What tune up will you advise sir?

Edited.. ignore boss.. I've seen your answer

kingreign:


Driving short distance does no good to modern cars. From cold start, your engine ECM is in open loop, the ECT sensors and AF sensors informs your ECM of this which then the ECM commands the injectors to pour in more fuel into the combustion chambers to quickly bring your engine to operating optimal temperature and once this threshold is reached, the ECM goes into closed loop thus making your car operate at the best power and economy it can provide safely.

Since you drive short distances, your car will keep taking more fuel. I'd also advise you perform some tune ups to help.

Balistic4:

Yes, I used spacers and it didn't work. Is yours es350? Was there any code before they stole the cat? What code do you get now?

Mine is es350 2008...there was no code until the stupid Painter stole the bank1 catalyst. I have arrested him and he said he will pay end of February. So I was considering spacers before then.

The code is below

Car Talk / Re: Club-Lexus by eightsin(m): 8:40am On Dec 27, 2023
Did you try using spacers?
I have similar problem as my bank 1 cat was stolen. I am considering O2 spacers if it will work.

Balistic4:


I get 15mpg or less in my 2010 es350 but I noticed that what greatly affect it is my driving style and driving terrain. If I drive short distances in a bad road, it gets as bad as 11mpg. If I drive long distances in a good road, it gets up to 22mpg. Not sure what causes this. My catalyst has been removed, not sure if it is the cause, though I strongly believe that the cat is not the cause and that it is normal, but since I have not been able to clear cat and o2 sensor related codes since the removal, I am considering putting it back

1st run a live scan on the sensor and confirm it has voltage reading on it and it's also reading the amount of oxygen in the exhaust while car is running.
2nd use your multimeter to read the ohms on the sensor and compare values with manufactures specs.

I will have to find a mech to do this as I only have the Bluetooth OBDll scanner. Thanks so much

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by eightsin(m): 2:45pm On Sep 16, 2023
Good day gurus.
I took my lexus es350 for paint job and small exhaust leakage work. I was with him the day he worked on the exhaust but the day he did the painting I wasn't there. Only for me to take my car back, drove for some miles and error popped out of the cluster display. I scanned and it's saying P0420 catalytic converter system, bank 1 inefficiency below threshold. He swore he didn't take my catalyst when I asked him so he opened the exhaust gasket which houses the catalyst under the car and the it's intact.

So I don't know why the car is still throwing up that code after clearing and driving for some miles
