  1. When this light comes on, it’s important to get your vehicle inspected by a professional as soon as possible to prevent any potential damage. It’s hard to say exactly what the issue is without a proper diagnosis. Your Lexus dealer or a trusted mechanic should be able to read the specific error code from the OBD system and determine the exact cause of the problem. That being said, I should also advise you to check or have checked your battery. Sometimes a failing battery or even a cell with no visible liquid in it can cause very strange warning lights to illuminate.

    Hello, Chris. Car & Driver's observed fuel economy was 23 mpg: 2024 Lexus TX Hybrid Review, Pricing, and Specs (caranddriver.com)
  3. Hello, Justin. Have you already tried reprogramming the power windows? Turn the key to the on position. At each window switch, lower the window to halfway, then immediately raise it all the way up and hold the switch up for at least 1 second. Repeat this process for all 4 doors Also, you may get lucky in finding a wrecked GX470 at a scrap yard.
  4. The torque specification for the valve cover bolts on a 2004 Lexus RX330 is 9 ft-lbs. However, I couldn’t find the specific tightening order for the rear valve cover bolts in my current resources. You may be able to find an online service manual that should include what you are looking for.
  5. What are the Possible Causes of the DTC P1127 Lexus? NOTE: The causes shown may not be a complete list of all potential problems, and it is possible that there may be other causes. Faulty Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) Actuator Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) Actuator harness is open or shorted Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) Actuator circuit poor electrical connection Read more: https://www.autocodes.com/p1127_lexus.html It may be that locating the specific cause is not exactly simple for the doityourselfer.
  6. I found this information by running a Bing CoPilot search, given your information:
  7. It looks like this sound was not present when you bought the vehicle? Is your RX still under warranty? If there is a Toyota-equivalent vehicle, then typically the service cost would be less expensive than at a Lexus dealership. I've had our spark plugs and coolant changed at our local Toyota dealership. Its reduction in cost for the maintenance tasks were significant.
  8. Hello, Bill. Who tested the battery, and was it load-tested? Obviously, not starting after one week is not normal. Is your remote fob battery good? If that battery is week, you can sometimes verify by placing the fob against the vehicle's start button as you press that button. A weak fob button can often allow the vehicle to start if you do it this way.
  9. I have the same issue of CR and was surprised to see that. You may want to call service advisers at one or more dealerships to inquire about this issue. I don't recall seeing any other comments about this year Lexus model NX300h. Also try this forum's search function if you haven't already.
  10. I would recommend looking at looking at OEM wheel specifications for each car on the tirerack.com site. You can also give them a call for their expert advice.
  11. While I am not currently using a car cover, I've found that the best ones have a UV-resistant polyurethane layer on the outside, and a soft layer on the inside. I also recommend the covers that have side view mirror "ears" which deter high winds from blowing off the cover. With his type of cover, you wash it while it is on the car.
  12. Since you're in CA, make sure that what you do is smog legal.
