Odeh. Do t go and be wasting money,remember the car is Nigerian used,not tokunbo. Oponu. That was how I wasted money buying useless toyota oil. Go to ondo,buy oando ger oil 5 litres. The one with red cover,grey container. I will only buy toyota and lexus oil once am abroad,and not nigeria.

Congratulations to me!
I just upgraded from a 2005 Lexus ES330 to a 2009 ES350.
I had to wait almost 3 months after paying for shipping and clearing, waited cos I needed a neat car without issues cos lagos dealers are never genuine and trust me the wait was worth it wink
Its neat, first body, accident free, Korean Spec and fullest option too smiley, I'm just the second user smiley
Below are photos of the car in S. Korea before shipping and in lagos after clearing.
Congrat
Can you selll Es330 to me, I will like to join the Lexus family

Yessir. I don't know what suspension parts availability is like, though, but the rest of the car should be fine for use here.

Please who can recommend a very good Lexus auto repair shop. My RX350 got into an accident and the front is badly damaged. I am thinking of using Briscoe motors but I heard it is quite expensive.
Can anyone please recommend an autorepair shop for me.
I would really appreciate.

The drivetrain is generally reliable. Suspension is pretty solid, parts might be an issue in terms of availability but you should be fine if you don't ply bad roads

My car ES300 03 model is suffering from acceleration drag.
when it takes up speed, I feel some sort of drag , a bit slow with a bit of noise . I don’t know what would have caused this.

I have replaced the fuel pump, had my mechanic check my coils to see if any one is losing power , I’ve also replaced all plugs.

Could this issue be from the injector? Should I check the injectors to see if there are blockages ( if they are not passing fuel well)?

Have you checked if the exhaust is free from blockage?

How do I check this ?
Re: Club-Lexus by Favouredforever: 2:00pm On Jul 02, 2022
Oluwaseunla might be right with the diagnosis.

I experienced the same with my former Car. Always dragging on acceleration but when it get to 100, it won't accelerate pass that. Turns out the catalyst had broken into pieces making it hard for the exhaust to work effectively. I was lucky it didn't end up causing damage to my engine. Get a good panel beater to check out the exhaust

You are lucky it's not a Honda.
That engine would have been toast.

Thanks for your input. How were you able to solve that? Did you take out the catalyst?
Last I checked, I’ve got no catalyst but just net inside there, could it be the cause ?
Re: Club-Lexus by Favouredforever: 4:53pm On Jul 02, 2022
So I heard.. Was lucky I guess

Re: Club-Lexus by Favouredforever: 4:54pm On Jul 02, 2022
Yeah.. Took it out and didn't bother replacing.

Well, still worth checking if there's a blockage in the exhaust I guess.

Mostly 75AH. I can’t recommend a brand name. Ask your local seller.

Hello guys I am planning to own a es330 or at worst an xle big daddy v6,

I value good fuel economy
Being a tall guy, comfy sit is valued grin
I am usually not trying to run like James bond
My last car was a matrix

Pleass what is a realistic recommendation for me and what is the worst that can happen.
