Need help from the best!
Hey Scotty! Big fan from Chattanooga:) I have an ‘08 Lexus gx470 with 312,000 on it just had the steering rack replaced under warranty because the other one which was 6 months old was leaking, already!Prior to the rack replacement the suspension and car was driving amazing. Got the car back after rack replacement, got an alignment, and immediately noticed it wasn’t driving as smooth in the front, more jerking over bumps and less stability , and also noticed that when I would take certain curves on my way home which I take every day my traction control light would come on and beep and the brakes would be applied to the front wheels and would throw me out of my lane. I’m fed up with this mechanic I even change my own oil now because I don’t trust them, I’ve had to have bearing, breaks, radiator, and steering rack replaced under warranty! roads have been dry no inclement weather…Any idea on what it could be?
And I also have codes p420 and p430 bank 1&2 catalytic blow efficiency codes that came back up shorty after getting both cats replaced by the same mechanic. Car makes a ticking sound now like it’s having trouble breathing sometimes the codes are there and sometimes they’re not. Ticking seems to get worse right before codes come back up. Tiking seems to go away drastically as I rev the engine past 2,500rpm. and when it’s in neutral and I rev it the ticking is much quieter and sometimes not even there. Help
I could send a video of ticking if you’d like….
Please make a YouTube video of the symptoms & post the link here.
Well the guy replaced it under warranty that means he made no money he just did a sloppy job if I were you I would take it to another mechanic and make that guy pay the entire bill. Obviously doesn't know what the hell he's doing or he's too smart with work rush through yours and screwed up the job had to do a lot of work to change that rack and he obviously messed up the tracks control system by doing it
