"ELF" Fuel Pressure Sensor Leak *Remedy Available*
#181
I've just finished reading over this entire thread, what a nightmare! This reinforces why I avoid having work done at a dealership like the plague. Which brings me to my question: What are the odds of being able to get the recall kit from Lexus and performing the work yourself? I'd be willing to sign some sort of waiver that absolves Lexus. Are there any special tools required for this procedure? I should also mention that the only recall work I've ever had the dealership do is the wiper nut on my IS250, and they even messed that up (wiper would slap against the A pillar, so I had to adjust it), so I certainly don't trust them to work on my F.

Thanks for the info, even though it makes me sad. On the bright side, when I check the recall site, my VIN doesn't show as affected. BUT I think maybe they're just a little slow adding the Canadian VINs. I noticed another Canadian that posted, their car hadn't shown up either. I guess I'll wait and see.

Just bought an 08 IsF and I'm contemplating on getting this done especially cause I'm in VA and the car is in SD with my wife. I guess I'll give my wife a few lines on what to say at the dealership. lol

Cracked Harness Cover
Got my car back from Magnessun Lexus of Fremont. They cracked it. Even after i warned them. I even called before I picked it up and my SA 'confirmed' that it was not cracked. I went out of my way to this dealership.... an hour+ drive vs. the 15 min to my closest Lexus.
Anyways, hes going to speak to the tech tomorrow and I am going to wait for the SA's call.

Same here from Toronto. I got the same letter regarding the recall but no follow up letter yet.
