You can get a 2000 Mercedes Benz ML430 this has a v8 for less than 10k. Lots of power.

The shaking could have been a engine misfire and depending on the check engine codes, it could be your spark plugs, spark plug cables or your ignition coils.

YOu need a obd2 scanner. Yes it is obd2 compliant which is way earlier than most cars usually they have to be a 96 to be obd2 compliant. Dont worry this is a good thing. IF i remember the connector for the scanner is below the driver side of the dashboard, you can go to autozone and rent out their obd2 scanner. Post your codes read here and you can be helped. It could be simple to fix and sometimes serious. It could be just a disconnected 02 sensor or something. You need to know the codes first.

This is common in 2nd gen es300's. There is a fix for the needles, you have to put a little led light underneath the needle,search for it in the forum.

It could be your hydraulic pump for the radiator fan is cracked and leaking power steering fluid.If it is I have 2 for sale!!! Dealer price is $ 399 I'll sell it for $ 60.00. iTS in excellent condition.

Fellow members, Sorry to say I parted with my 94 es300 with 231000 miles but running as smooth as she can be and no problems but windows in the front wil not go up. It is a good car, I dont care what all these guys in benzes say. I have a benz too but I have great respect for Lexus and when I get the chance I will get another lexus es. I just dont want a v8 so my choice will be a es or a is. To all of you, I have extra parts for the car, a radiator, a starter, 2 hydraulic fan motors and relays. Let me know if anyone here need one, I will sell them for a real good price ok. This is a great forum, and if its ok with you guys Id like to stay a member.

It could be your oil has a little coolant in it, but just too little that you dont detect any coolant missing. My 2 cents.

LEXUS ROCKSSSS PERIOD!!!

You hit it right on the head man, for your info guys, the es was not designed to be a porsche 911, its a luxury sedan, if youre a person who wants to punch the gas all the time or make 140 mile per hour turns you dont buy a es. The ES is for comfort and luxury and ample speed, why do you think it has 4 doors. Its the same thing with this guys who lower a 4 door accord and put body kits on them. Its a family sedan , Jeeez. You want a race car dont buy a 4 door. It just induces autism. LOL

Jig, sorry to hear about your 08. I have a 94 and it runs real nice so I doubt your car is a lemon. Good luck

okay, thanks guys. So this is not needed. Thats all I wanted to know.

Hi fellows! In the sticky post lexus es faqs, sk mentioned that installing front strut bars will sharpen the steering feel, I was wondering, does this strut bars go on top of the struts ? ANd what does it really do for your car? Is it really necessary?

I think its called SHARK body kit. Google it with images.

I think 18"is the max you can put in a es250. CHeck the sticky on lexus es faq's .

Know what, these guys are overcharging you. Just take your car to a reliable muffler shop, and they'll take out your cats and put new ones in for like $ 200.00 period. Whoever pays $ 2900 for a catalytic converter, are they out of their minds? Even the cats on my mercedes ML430 cost only $ 400.00 each on each side and this is because it has 2 cats on each side. Cmon, they want to rip you off. The aftermarket cats are as good as the original ones,they will last you at least 10 years.
