| They are solid vehicles, but it's still a luxury SUV which means it will be a money pit as it ages. V8 engines are also costly to work on and pigs on gas. From motorreviewer.com: Toyota 4.6 V8 1UR-FE Engine Problems and Reliability Despite the fact that the new engine has nothing similar with the 2UZ-FE, they have joint problems. The water pump is still a source of leaks and issues. It has a short life - 60,000 miles (100,000 km), and it's gone. Sometimes the hydraulic chain tensioner fails, loosening the timing chain tension. In the early years of production, the engine was equipped with too thin unreliable valve springs. Some owners complain about increased oil consumption - up to 0.5 liters per 1000 miles. But in the rest, the 1UR-FE engine has excellent longevity and durability, almost the same as the 2UZ-FE. | |||||

| You can't trust the "car report" to tell you everything. You need a good mechanic to examine the vehicle before purchase. | |||||

| @chucktobias It had a clean car fax, and I had the dealer provide me videos of body panels. Ended up not getting it due to the age in general. | |||||

| How do you know it has been in no accidents? Have you had it examined by a mechanic? It sounds like an awful lot of money for a 9-year-old vehicle with over 150K miles. Dealerships are almost always overpriced. You can check comparables for sale in your area as well as sites such as Kelley Blue Book to get an idea of what something like that should go for. | |||||

| Well I would say it's either the wiring going to the computer or the computer itself. That's the only logical thing. Of course I would have to personally look at it. Put on a freeze frame of salescope to make sure that parts you bought are working and that there aren't other problems that are making the sensors. Give bad data such as a vacuum leak or fuel injector problem. | |||||

| Should I buy a Lexus 2023 GX460? | 12Relevance | 2 years ago | acellis | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I love the V 8 GX last year model. Do you recommend it? Do you think Lexus will have new SUV models coming out soon? I am looking for a little luxury and comfort in driving. I had a Solara v6 -loved that engine! I currently drive a Subaru Outback, its okay, but not a fan of the 4 cylinder, but it is alot better than my VW Beetle that drives like a golf cart. I dont need a huge SUV, but I really would like a little more power. Love your videos; I have learned a lot. Kinda scary too, a lot to think about. | |||||

| Hello Scotty, I have a 2014 Gx 460 premium with more than 330,000 kilometres, in middle east, purchased it from the first owner of the car that was meticulous with oil changes on time. He has used 0W20 or 5w30 time to time. Following that I am only using 0W20 regularly, never exceeding 7,500 kilometres and there has been no problem with the car and oil remains clean and free from any metal shavings. now many people are suggesting me to use 5W30 on regular basis as its a high mileage car, as per my own research, 5W30 isn’t suitable as oil weight can damage engine. On 0W20 it runs like a clock as you normally say with good engines. I need your suggestion on the oil, as its a hot environment throughout the year, should I continue using 0W20 or at least switch to 0W30 considering its high mileage and hot environment? Please suggest, as my next oil change is about 3,000 kilometres away. | |||||

| That's meaningless because not everything is reported to Carfax. You can't necessarily detect accident damage from videos, physical inspection is needed to look for subtle signs of repair both in body panels and chassis. Doesn't seem all that old (less than 10 years), but chances are it was overpriced since that's what dealers typically do. | |||||

| Your transmission may be starting to slip. The whole idea of a downshift is to deliver more torque to the wheels (being pulled into your seat). There's a torque band at high RPMs. If anything, a truck should have more torque for towing, sacrificing top speed. It's too late to change your transmission fluid. If you change it, will most likely start slipping even more. | |||||
