  1. Heres an PDF file on checking the 02 sensor hope this helps you out. B) o2sensor_check.pdf
  2. Thanks for the info, I thought about replacing O2 sensors but they are pricey. Should I do the front one first, being it is easier to get to? Anyone ever try cleaning the O2 sensors? Can it be done? I would reset the code and drive it. why put more money into it until you know that part needs replacing. You can test the o2 sensors and see if they are working. good luck.
  3. Yes the oil pan can be romoved without the engine having to be removed. The bolts I believe are 10MM about 12 or more. I have a PDF file on the engine if you need it, which sounds like you might. Just Pm me and I'll get it to you. Good luck
  4. Heres a pdf file that will help you out. If you neede any other files just PM me I have a bunch for the RX B) Automatic Transsxle (AX) file.pdf
  5. Yes the dimmer switch is all the way up. It used to be bright but just isnt anymore. The 99 has its own brightness button on the unit right under the cd and clock buttons B) day/night mode is still affected by the dimmer. Thanks everyone...but the brightness button will not bring it brighter, but will take it dimmer if I turn it down...I'll try cleaning the connectors as up above mentioned..any help on removing the screen?

  8. Your little man will be alright. I know its hard to see your little one in a way that you have no control over, Im a father of three 2 girls and 1 boy. 11, 7 3 You have my prayers. All I can say is Faith.
  9. Yep, checking witth the engine up and running. I dont totally understand 3 to 3 1/4 out of the drain, when I pull the pan it had around 1/4 more and filter 1/4 to 1/2 qt ,more and the transfer case around 1 qt. I'll drive it for a little more and check it again
  10. Thanks Barry, that was my thought also.
  11. Ok Heres my solution, 1999 Rx 300 with 151K I did my transmission fluid change, Transfer case and installed a new filter, job easy. 4 1/2 qts came out. Put when I was refilling at 3 qts it was above the cold line???? Started the car and went though the gears, check it, drove the car about 10 mins, check it again, move up alittle not much. So here my $1000.00 question, should I repalce the 4.5 qts that came out????? Thanks
  12. Jeff: I have 235P65R16 on my 99' RX300. You would not have any problem with the rear struts. I brought GoodYear Fortera Triple Tred. It cost me around $600 back then from Discounted Tires. Now, it's around $800-900. The wider tires actually give the car a lot better traction. SHKID Thanks for the info. Im looking into getting the toyo Versado.
  13. Hi everyone, for the last couple of days I have noticed that the temperture gauge is runnung up to the second line on the gauge, usually reads sightly under the first one, just wondering if this is a sign the thermostat is going???? Thanks for your help on this. All fulid levels are good Thanks Jeff
  14. Looking to buy a new set of tires for my 1999 RX300. I was wondering if an 235/65/16 would work, or will they rub on the rear strut. I believe they are the same ratios as the 225/70/16. Thanks for your time on this. Thanks Jeff :D
  15. Looks like the document Jeff was trying to upload didn't show up. Maybe this will work. Bank one sensor 2 is located between the muffler and the cat converter. To test the sensor, you must remove the drivers seat to get to the wire harness connection. Good luck! Thanks Joe for having my back. Jeff
