I have a 92Es300, however the remote that came with it doesnt work.

The remote works when i put the radio on the specific radio station. I think that my reciever is dead. I tried all the diagnostics in the fsm with no luck.

What is the cheapest solution to fix the problem

what about this?

Grab the factory service manual from the sticky. Inside there is a section to troubleshooting the alarm system. For example there is a radio station you can tune to which can tell you if your remote is sensing signals.

I have been having trouble with my alarm also. I bough this car with one key and the remote on it works. But does not un lock the car. I tried everything in th fsm with no luck.

You don't need a a Lexus specific guide, its the same for every vehicle.

In case you cant find a replacement, when i bought my other vehicle it cost me 20$ per wheel to remove the nut locks at a tire shop.

in the morning it will smoke a little but after like 5 min its fine any idea what that could be

Does it smoke on hot or cold days or both? Its normal for cars to smoke on cold days in the morning.

you don't need a press, hammer out the old studs. Place the new studs in and put the wheel back on. torque the wheel to spec and the studs will pull themselves in.

I know on my 92 es300 when i bought a new gromet i had to use pliers to jam the pvc valve in there. I couldnt do it by hand.

Hey guys my drivers side sun visor crapped out. The hinge is broken and wont stay up. What year visors will fit on my 1992?

Thanks

the 3vzfe has a mechanical maf which doesn't require cleaning. I checked it when I adjusted the afm and it was clean

I forgot to mention that I replaced the PVC valve and the little gromet

I checked the tire pressures 2 were at 30 and 2 were at 26. I put them all to 35. Though I doubt that would affect the economy that much

the car has 146k miles and is an auto

besides the normal stuff the trunk is empty

the coolant temp sensor is a good idea.That could cause the ecu to be stuck in warmup enrichment mode. Ill have a look at it to Tomorrow

Thanks for the help so far :)

Hey guys i bought a 92 es300 a couple months ago. The car drives great however i am getting 13mpg in 90% city. I am babying it so it should be getting much better mpg's.

These are the things i have done so far:

- New Fuel filter

- Spark plugs

- Rotor/Cap

- set timing to 17

- leaned out the afm 3 clicks

- New o2 sensors

- Checked the ecu there are no codes

Any ideas what i should check/replace?
