Re: Club-Lexus by arbitrage: 12:30am On Nov 17, 2015 |
kingreign:Thanks. I'm wondering why not for the in built navigation whereas I am just researching and discovering now that portable ones can be updated with African maps but at a cost on the GPS Manufacturer's website. |

Re: Club-Lexus by kingreign(m): 1:50pm On Nov 19, 2015 |
KunmiHuston: its a very good car. People seem not to like it due to its age and price tag. Just like the IS300, and LS400/420 |

Good day, comrades. My lexus rx 300, '99 model is emitting black smoke continually. 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 and P0141 were showing. Please I need your suggestions and ideas on fixing the problem. My MAF sensor reads 0.01 when the live performance was checked. I tried two different tokunbo MAF sensors but the smoke was still coming out. So, I am guessing it's either not a problem of the MAF sensor, or the tokunbo MAF sensors are not okay themselves. I was advised to change all sensors. However, since the system is said to be too lean on bank 1, I thought I should change only the sensor 1 on bank 1, since sensor 2 was never there when I bought the car and it didn't smoke. As regards the location of sensor 1 Bank 1, I guess it's on the exhaust, underneath the car, right? |

Re: Club-Lexus by Lexusgs430: 9:55am On Dec 02, 2015 |
maballack: Check the pump and solenoid valve.This error is usually linked to your air suspension module. |

Re: Club-Lexus by Top9jajamz: 4:06am On Dec 04, 2015 |
Hello Lexus lovers, I have an issue with my Rx300. I was driving back home when suddenly my steering became very stiff.I managed to manoeuvre and park the car for checks. I discovered that my steering oil was empty to my amazement even though it was not so when I conducted prestart checks in the morning. I bought holts power steering fluid to refill only for me to observe it leaks out entirely after I switch on my ignition. I managed to drive the car with a stiff steering to my mechanic who said my power steering beam/rack is bad and he gave me two options 1.a refit that would cost about 20k 2. procure a tokumbo power steering rack for about 40k but I'm made to understand that some of these tokumbo power steering rack are refitted. Here are my questions. a)Is the price for a tokumbo power steering that expensive or my mechanic is trying to hammer from my misery. b)should I go for the refit since there's a chance I'll be buying a refit if I decide to get a replacement, how advisable is it to do a refit please note this car is in Warri and all prices are from Warri spare parts market and the power steering pump has been disconnected allowing me drive the stiff car in manual mode pending when I decide on what to do, is this advisable Case 2)Prior to the stiff steering incident, I realized my gear always got stuck in P no matter what I did. I made a small search on Google only to discover that the most likely reason would be a faulty break switch and temporary solution was to press the white button above the gear selector.I was able to take the care to my electrician who managed to get it working but didn't change the brake switch.my guess is that he bypasses the switch.after wards I realized that my brake lights now come on but occasionally I do get the gear selector stuck on P. How much is a brake switch or should I continue to manage the bypass? Can I get a trusted honest contact of someone in ladipo market Lagos who can help me find out the true cost of a 2001 Lexus Rx300 power steering rack as well as a brake switch observations |
