Hello guys.

1. Please what Power Steering fluid can I use for my 08 Lexus ES350.

2. I was told DextronATF, can I use my original Toyota ATF instead of dextron?

3. I don't know the brand used to fill it the last time, but can I just top up with another brand or do I have to go through the extra stress of draining before refilling.

TheNewAgeFarmer:
Checked too. We’ll check the BCM tomorrow. Getting a competent workshop in Benin is the issue. Does bcm need programming when replaced!.

Hello House,

My steering rack is leaking at the both ends of the rack.
My mechanic said the seal or something in the rack kit is bad and needs to be rekitted.
Is it okay to rekit or go for a complete fairly used steering rack?
Please assist.

Lexusgs430:
Have you fixed it now?....

Did you also check your fuseable link pack?.... This pack is in the engine bay (passengers side, in front of the firewall).......

TheNewAgeFarmer:
Been trying to call you on WhatsApp to appreciate you. I eventually fixed it myself. Cleaned Almost all sockets on the dashboard and car is back to normal. Thank you very much.

Lexusgs430:
Remember when I mentioned doing DIY troubleshooting........

Well done......

TheNewAgeFarmer:
Many technicians no nothing. You won’t believe I wasted about 50k without results.

Lexusgs430:
In some cases, they simply do trial & error.........

A trained mechanic, doing trial & error, stands no chance with a rookie, simply researching fault and applying wisdom........

TheNewAgeFarmer:
He played with my scarce resources!.

Lexusgs430:
You gave him that freedom and opened your wallet to him........


Remember, he got children to feed..........

Yesterday I fixed an oil leakage on my power steering, the said it was the hose connection the steering pump and the steering rack that had issues and causing massive leakage, after fixing I noticed my steering making some sound while turning it in slow speed, please what could be the cause of this?

For the maintenance required, it's most probably your vehicle is due for service.

For the noise above 60km/h or 60mph, you need to have it checked by a competent technician.

Where is your location?

austino677:
amuwo odofin Lagos.. Already did wheel balancing and alignment this month
.. Told a friend he said could be gear oil.. But its not in the bonnet side

kingreign:

kingreign:
Have it checked by a competent technician.

austino677:
