sludgeguy Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 our 2001 Rx 300 with 125k miles has just ( 4/11) developed the dreaded sludge engine problem , looks like new engine is in order ... I can't sort thru all the info on this and get to a bottom line , if there is one , re what to do to have Toyota do something to help with "their" problem after the extended sludge warranty period ended... anyone have experience and/or advise ???
lenore Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 The warranty was for 8 years 2months...I dont know if you have any recourse other than maybe finding a used good engine and dropping it in.

tdpark Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 I would call lexus and see if they will goodwill it as it is a known problem and see if your dealer will go to bat for you.
