I am looking for help before I shoot my LX 470!!!
I purchased my 2001 LX 470 in March of 2017. The LX 470 had no known problems when I purchased it but, since I plan on keeping this LX 470 forever I took straight to my local Toyota dealership to get a baseline on all maintenance items.
From March to August the LX 470 wasn’t driven much because I was upgrading the stereo system during this time period.
In September the LX 470 developed a stall problem and it seems to be getting worse. At random times, normally while trying to accelerate from Red Lights Stops, it will shutter and stall when gas pedal is pressed.
My Toyota dealership has been unable to replicate the problem and the check engine light is never set.
Last night the LX 470 “luckily” stalled while backing into my driveway. So I had access to a handheld scanner and I was able to leave it shuttering while I grabbed the codes. It has P0172 – bank 1 to rich and P0175 – bank 2 to rich.
Below is my service history for the past two years and the engine is 100% stock other than a higher output alternator. New OEM Gas Cap, New Air Filter, air box is clean.
As soon as I cleared the codes, it ran fine again. 800 RPMs and no shuttering. But, the problem will eventually reoccur because it is happening more often.
