Thanks, 2GZ. This is good info, I am thankful for the forums. It would be nice to have someone else do the work... someone who stands behind it. But my buddy says the dealer here in Virginia Beach would charge $600 to replace the sensors, which they would do first, and over $1k to change the catalytic converter, which they would do if replacing the sensors didn't work. That's a bit high. If I were going to spend $600 to possibly $1600 on the emissions, it woudln't be for a repair back to factory condition.

Some pics from a recent road trip. Near Carlsbad Caverns, NM Yosemite, CA Near Yosemite, CA PCH with Big Sur in the background, CA I was going to post these in the gallery but was unable to login for some reason. My username and password did not appear to work on the login form over there. (I searched for info in the forums, maybe I'm doing something wrong, please let me know.)

Thanks, Thi. I will check it out hopefully sometime this week and report the results.

Hi Folks, I got a check engine light and here's the code I'm getting... PO420 - "Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold - Bank 1" I have a friend who works in a Lexus service department. He says their line would be for me to replace oxygen sensors to see if that fixes it. If not he says they would then recommend I replace the catalytic converter. I won't let no dealer do the work. But at any rate I just don't want to spend that kind of money on the emissions system. Does anyone have any experience with this? Do I have any alternatives or am I going to have to keep staring at this dern light? Thanks, Nelson

Is there any use for the 2nd button on my LX 450 remote?

I was digging through old posts when I found this thread. SleeOffRoad has a nice rack system that fits into the stock OEM roof rack rails. SleeOffRoad Roof Racks

I have a '96 LX-450 and I usually go with 93 unless it is not available, then I'll go with '92 or '91. Guess using the high octane is just a habit for me.
