Recalibrating The Computer On My 06 Gs300?

[mdesevo]

I took my car to my mechanic to get my check engine light. He called and said that I would have to take my car to Lexus to get the computer recalibrated. My biggest concern is how much is it gonna cost to fix since I dont have a warranty with Lexus. If anybody could give me any information about this I'd appreciate it.

take it to AutoZone, get the CEL codes read for free. Copy the codes down, post them up here. I am curious to see what code is causing you mechanic to perscribe a computer recalibration. Then I would like to know what he means by recalibration. Does he mean a reflash of the ECU?

How the #@ do you calibrate a computer :)

Recalibrate to a new mechanic.
