How about a manual for a 1991 es250?

my bill for the left rear sensor was $300. it solved my problem. but when my defroster or ac is on, sometimes the lights will come back on. i think this is a sensor that has to do with the ac system, not the abs/traction

sounds like a head gasket

when this happened to my 99, it was a wheel sensor. it was replaced by the toyota dealer. it had to be pressed out

the canister on a 99 es is under the rear axle. if you get under the car and take a flashlight you will see it. it is about the size of a cereal box, just thicker. to gain better access to it, you can disconnect the exhaust from the rubber hangers. there really isnt much to look at on it 'cept a black box and a couple hoses. if you are getting the code for the box, you are covered under the warranty up to certain mileage. i am not sure what mileage but i have a 99 so mine was not covered

and too bad normal folks can't see what these cars are going for

dealers use the manheim auction for trade in pricing. it is a pain in the !Removed! for me since it is a few miles away

ordered a charcoal canister and a/f sensor for $400 shipped. great dealing with them guys

winner!!!!

maf sensor?

from www.ajusa.com the 4 struts and strut mounts(including bearings) shipped were $500

bought my 99 es in nov 05 for 12k with 70,000 miles just needed tires. no real maint til this year. $3000 later the car should last til 250k cept tires and pads. it seems like a lot, but for how much i paid, the 3k isnt much

that is a real good price for install and parts. you will not be disappointed. let them do it for that price. lexus would prob charge $500 for labor, plus about $80 for an alignment

the canister is only covered up to 1998. i just replaced mine on my 99. i got it from www.sewelllexus.com the codes will be 0441 and i think 0446

dude, do it yourself. rent the spring compressor tool from autozone, it is free, well, $40 deposit and then you get it back. i got the one that compresses from the outside not the inside. just remember what position the strut mount and bracket come off, so they are reinstalled correctly, and do one side at a time. you may want to replace the strut mounts at the same time also, it is just easier. make sure you have a long breaker bar for the strut bolts

bought my 99 es 3 years ago for $12,000 from a dealer, 70,000 miles. they replaced a maf sensor, and rf strut mount. i replaced the tires and had an alignment. w/in the past year i have replaced the alternator $175 all belts and battery $650 new tires, trans flush alignment $550 struts/strut mounts all 4 corners $500 charcoal canister $230 a/f sensor $170 rear sway bar links $125 new rotors and pads all around $300 plugs $50 plus all normal maint. so since the beginning of the year i have spent $2700 in repairs. this !Removed! is mine til 250k. i guess for how much i spent on the initial purchase and what i have repaired i am good til them except tires and new pads somewhere in the future. now a speed sensor is bad, but i have no idea which one :chairshot:

i would start with the cold start sensor 1st

i am having my strut mounts and bearing replaced, do i need to get the front end aligned after this. i understand that when you replace the struts you must, but didnt know if it should also be done now

i onder if they are out there cheaper than 675
