Hello Lexus Owners - I am the proud owner of a 2001 ES 300 Lexus,112,344 miles.
The engine light and trac light are now consistently on, have tried cleaning/changing the gas cap resetting the codes via disconnecting the battery, but the lights come back after 20 miles or so.
I have decided to go ahead and have my local mechanic change out both sensors / wiring harness/ intake gaskets and since half the engine will be off, get them to change out the spark plugs as some of you have suggested. What other maintenance should I perform ? I have some major leaks such as the with the valve cover.
I am trying to keep the other labor reasonable and my mechanic works with me, since the charge for the knock sensors should be a couple of hours, with half of the engine being exposed I want to take advantage of this to perform other maintenance. Any suggestions?
