Thanks for taking the time to hear my concerns. I just bought a used certified car from a dealership. Now i noticed within the first couple days that when I put my foot down on the highway i smell gasoline coming in the cabin. The second issue is when I have it in park I can hear weird ticking noises from the front grill, it's pretty loud and noticeable. Here is some more info on the car. It has 113,000km. Had one owner. No scans come up. It is a automatic. I had the dealers mechanic check again and he's trying to play it off saying they checked everything and the ticking is injectors and they didn't smell any gasoline. I have good ears and a nose plus i noticed the issues on several different occasions. Im going to have a honest and reliable mechanic to check it out but i wanted to know the opinion of the legend scotty himself because you've worked on countless is250's. Any type of insight would be greatly appreciated thankyou!
that's the GDI you're hearing
Sometimes it's normal to smell gasoline or similar smell after flooring the car
If it's always smelling like gasoline then you should look into it
What is a gdi in a lexus is250? i thought a gdi is a type of diesel engine. Also i've had a few cars plus ive driven my parents cars and when i floor it it never smelt like gasoline. Also when i search it up it says it can be a possible leak so I dont think its something i can ignore.
Gasoline direct injection.
If you think it's a leak, then have it checked out.
