It’s a 2006 with 160k - other guy was at fault so letting insurance fight it out. Hood for sure is out of whack - Hoping the drivetrain didn’t get shocked and tweak something. Won’t know till insurance gets back to me on estimate.
Guy ran a red light today and caught my front fender all the way across the bumper. I wasn’t all the way across the intersection so avoided getting T-boned- all damage is in front of the tires and frame - nothing leaking - truck still drove. Anyone with experience or similar damage what did your...
I’d replace the gas cap before I do anything else. I’ve got a thread here about similar stuff happening and it turns out my gas cap was bad. I was worried about the fuel pump and all kinds of things mentioned I t his thread. Crank your current gas cap on really hard - way past the one click to...
I have not heard this before but we had a rash of 105 degree days and I too was driving back from Yosemite through the very hot valley when this started for me initially. A summer time gremlin perhaps? I will keep this fuel pump replacement idea in mind - I will check for your previous post...
Not to hijack, I wish the OP well - can someone explain the DLC3 and DLC1 differences - are they both ODBC ports? Is the infor coming from both the same or?
Thanks!
So one last update.
Wife took truck to take daughter back to school. On the inevitable fill up she couldn't get the gas cap off. Neither could the first guy she asked to help. The second guy couldn't either but had a wrench. They managed to get it off and all was well.
Had her stop by a...
My LS400 sunroof just got stuck open this past weekend. Could hear clicks when pushing the button to close but no movement.
Opened up the dome unit where the buttons are to look at the motor, no disconnections.
Reached up and gently tapped the whole length of the sunroof with my fist and it...
So wanted to come back and give an update.
I've screwed on my fuel cap (one click kind) extra hard and have not had another episode in about 500 miles (about two tanks) don't you just love the V8 mileage...
Will be replacing the cap shortly, it never threw another code and my mechanic was...
Just looked it up - was a po230 fuel pump relay code. That was the only thing they replaced - nothing else to go on. I'm going to try to have them pull codes again from today's events to see if something else popped up.
Last time (after the replacement) no codes) - so again odd and...
So this got the better of me and I just went to fill up.
The cap came off ok, not a huge whoosh - normal. It's a "one click" type cap. The o ring in it looks fine - but who knows. I made sure to make cram it on probably more than one click and just took a highway drive over the same patch...
Come to think of it no - which is why it was so easy to get off? Gas cap is a turn till one click kind that is always a PITA to get off normally. This is starting to get interesting. I'm almost due for a fill up and will see if I've got vacuum tomorrow - intermittent seal on the gas cap that is...
My LX is doing exactly this and I just posted not as great of a description as you just did. My mechanic of course can't duplicate the issue, it just happened again today over bumpy highway and I'm suspect of the gas cap. Last code Mechanic ended with a fuel pump relay getting replaced - but the...
Having an issue with engine cutting off at highway speed then coming right back on. From 2500Rpm to zero check engine then back to 2500. Fuel pump relay was replaced by mechanic per code. Condition is very intermittent. Second trip back to mechanic and no codes and extended test drive by him...
This sounds like an awesome little project - also bought mine with 1 key. Is the entire process stickied - am on potato phone and can't seem to find anything in the forum search.
Hey thanks for checking anyway! I'm pretty sure it probably doesn't based on all the burning man playa dust that was still dry that I found taking the tailgate carpet off but wanted to see.
Thanks!
New member and first post - if I do something wrong let me know!
Torrential rain in NCAL surfaced a rear third brake light leak in my new to me 2006 LX470. Thanks to many many entries across this site for trouble shooting help - found it with foam and then saw it dripping inside the back...
