steviej Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Has anyone noticed a tapping, pinging sputtering sound coming from the engine? never noticed it before ...I have 10,000 miles on my 2008 GS350 .. take it in and have it looked at under warranty. While you are there, take out a new GS or a left over 08 GS and see if that car does it too. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehef Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Has anyone noticed a tapping, pinging sputtering sound coming from the engine? never noticed it before ...I have 10,000 miles on my 2008 GS350 .. My next door neighbor owns two slightly older Lexus and when he heard my wife drive by, he asked if the GS350 were a diesel. I complained to the dealer about the same noises on my new 2008 GS350. He explained the certain Lexus engines are now using a high pressure fuel injection system. That is what is causing these noises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
