  1. I've been quoted 350 by toyota to fix my speed sensor. If i buy the part for 190, can I install it myself?!? Thanks in advance I would suggest removing/cleaning/re-adjusting the speed sensor gap first. Metal filings, "fines" covering the sensor tip can be a problem as would poor electrical connections. The sensor itself rarely fails. any tips to remove this wheel sensor

  4. Heck yeah! I got Both and Acura , and a Lexus! Best of Both Worlds Baby!!
  5. You Must Need Some Motivation, Get the LEXUS
  6. Everyone is correct, the ABS sensor needs to be pressed out and replaced. Its out of wack!!! Toyota quoted me 600 bucks after an 89 buck diagnostic fee, i chose to keep driving it and get it fixed later, its now 7 months later, still driving with the lights on!!
  7. That wont work, i tried to use Line-Out Converters (LOC) but was unable to get it to work! Best thing to do is switch stereos and use a harness! with Line Out Jacks for the Amp. The factory amp does not have enuf wattage to push anything but the factory speakers, they are finely tuned.
  8. I hadnt replaced it yet! I hear that I cant install it myself even if i buy one! I hear that it has to be pressed out of the Hub! Let me know if you know something i dont, Dealer quoted me 450 dollars Did you get a new sensor?? I need one but I do not want to pay $200+ for it!! May go to a junk yard.
  9. Sorry im just going thru 2 quarts a day, and tearing up the parking lot Easy trigger, Someone will post with the info you seek. Sometimes it takes a little while to get a response. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showuser=744 should be able to help you out on this matter.
  10. All, Do i need a torque wrench or something, cause i tightened as tight as i could, didnt want to strip the bolt!? any comment will be greatly appreciated
  11. i need ed to drain the dirty fluid, on my 97 es300 so i removed a screw with a hose on it to fix it , yes the fluid came running out of the pump and the resevoir, but now no matter how hard i tighnten this #4 screw, it leaks from that screw, ive tried 2 washers and everything. Thanks for any advice!
  12. another question, if I may, LOL, the spark plug rings, they dont fit in the holes of the valve cover! Do iwrap them around the spark plug housings or do I keep trying to pry them into the valve cover? does the opening of the rings face up or down?!
  13. supposedly im on my back beneath the hub, head is towards the front of the car with a long object, with this leverage scenario, would i be pushing or pulling? or do i do it the other way, im going to do it at the crack of dawn! Thanks for responding so quickly, may god bless u!! meanig do i push it towards the bak of vehicle, or pull it towards the front?
  14. i have a 97 es300 , i replaced the power steering belt, by going through the wheel well. i took a chance by lossening up a visible screw, it worked and slid relieving the tension.. i replaced yhe belt but cant get that screw to move again! was that the power steering thingy i moved, i pressed and pulled at everything. should i just tighten the screw "as is"? the belt seems tight, with little slack. Quick responses will be greatly appeciated, car is still apart, and i have curch tomorrow, the work monday, LOL. E-Z fix gone wrong! thanx in advance
  15. Hello All, I have a 97 es300 and i have the front valve cover gasket off, im thinking about tackling the rear but I wanna know if i put the front back on today, and attempt the back tomorrow will i have to take the front off again?! Thanks in advance!?
