Hi guys
Greetings
The 2007 lexus gs350 I drive vibrates a lot once you put the gear in drive . This continues as you continue to drive.
I just coughed up some amount to fix things related to the drive shaft as suggested by my mechanic..
However the issue is yet to be resolved
He told me my engine seat is ohkay....
Has anyone had similar experience or does anyone have a possible diagnosis and suggested management.
Thanks

Have you scan? Is the vibration associated with the AC when on? Could be simple issue as plug, coil or dirty air filter/dirty throttle body

Please HELP!!! I own a Lexus Es350 '08 and whenever I start the car in the morning I hear a cranking or grinding sound as soon as the engine starts, Then if I turn it off immediately and start the engine again it doesn't make the noise. But when I leave it for a long time (usually 3-4 hours) and I start the engine I hear the same sound again. What can be the cause?

Also my dashboard is like a Christmas Tree, the error lights are all on, I have taken the car to a mechanic they scanned the car, we repaired everything (ABS, serviced the airbags, Pumped my tires to the recommended psi) the only thing I couldn't repair was the catalyst, STILL THE error lights are still on, and they won't clear.

Finally I always fix one suspension problem every month, if I repair shaft this month, I'll repair Shock pad next month, then linkage the next month.

I love this car but the problems are starting to get too much.

Vvt rattle is the noise u have. Very common stuff

.

I stay at Ejigbo which is close to 7&8 and I sell scan tools for 5k. Avoid driving the car till you scan and get it fixed and I hope and pray that you have been using Toyota's recommend transmission fluid. Though this issue can be caused by anything

Scan tool to scan all vehicles fault?

I bought the belt 1,200 so I guess it is tokunbo, do you have any idea how much and how to get an original belt. Thanks sir

You can buy the belt yourself, take the old one to the market. There are good toks belt everywhere. That isn't a big deal. You can physically examine the belt yourself. Let the toks you're buying fit-in into the old one when placed on a level surface.
Make sure the teeth are same too.

just live with it, engine is expensive oil is cheap, change your oil every 3k miles, infact according to most car manufacturers, 1qt oil burn per 1k miles is normal, pretty weird but na so we see am.

Restriction along the AC lines
AC components like the evaporator, expansion valve, hoses can cause it.
Also lack of suffecient airflow through the Evaporator can make it freeze.

Baba this one high ooo... I no sure say e reach like that sha. But you're correct. Some manufacturers will state expected oil consumption over certain distance.
Differs from engine to engine, driving conditions also matter (high rev/high way drive or city driving)

Please help, my lexus gs300 2006 did not enter reverse this morning when it was started, after much switching between park and reverse, it eventually did. This it also seized again and stopped entering reverse, few seconds after it started working again.

I scanned it and here is the code I got

Re: Club-Lexus by webberman: 7:23am On Sep 27, 2022
Hello Guys,

Please I have a few issues with my 2006 gs350. The scan code is below. Anyone with ideas on how to approach this issue? It has been giving me some headache really. No noticeable issue with the vehicle though. But those lights on are just very alarming.

Some of the lights on are
AFS, ABS, Brake, check 4wd, check VSC

Replace rear left wheel speed sensor.
Do you have a Check engine light on?
Re: Club-Lexus by webberman: 12:56pm On Sep 27, 2022
Yes I do have that light on aswell. Any idea how much this might cost?

I am in Lagos. Do you also think this is what is affecting the ABS and brake? Or that's most likely an entirely different thing.

Re: Club-Lexus by Angrygoat: 12:18am On Sep 28, 2022
Abs speed sensor for gs won't exceed 12k max. Brand new,tokunbor aka naija used with doubts like 7k. ABS is basically for stability of vehicle during slippery roads,rather than going zig zag,u will be going straight and would be able to brake to a stop within 5 to 7 seconds,b4 your gear jumps to neutral esp on hard emergency brakes. Lexus dey mad oh. I miss lexus sha.
