  1. The idle will also climb to about ~1300 when warm and still misfire every once in a while as well. Unplugged the TPS while running, didn't fix it. Unplugged all 3 EGR sensors, didn't fix it.
  2. I have an 00' Es300, 134k miles. No CELs, sometimes when I start it, it will barely run for a few seconds and then slowly come to a steady idle. Sometimes I start it and it will be fine. When it warms up, it has a rough idle when in Park or Neutral. When in Drive or Reverse, the engine struggles to stay alive and the misfire is even worse it seems. When driving, the engine will shutter. It is not the transmission, it's the engine. Sometimes the brakes won't work when coming to a stop, feels like the vacuum is being pulled from them. All together it's running terrible and there are no CEL's. Oil is fine, just changed trans fluid because I thought it was that but it wasn't. Cleaned the MAF. Any ideas? Clogged cat maybe?
  3. I looked at a diagram today and it's saying it's the VSV. Where can I buy this at?
  4. What will happen if I run without the vacuum lines hooked up to it?
  5. Do I absolutely need it? Will it cause any damage to anything?
  6. Hi all first time Lexus owner. I've owned an 01 Camry when I was 17 and it was the most reliable car I've ever owned, figured I'd go back and get something just as reliable with some more creature comforts. Car has 134k on it. The picture below is the sensor I need to find. Some google searching is bringing me to VSV sensor, and EGR sensor. The 2 plastic nipples have snapped off this sensor. what is this sensor and do I absolutely need it?
