car starts..but then immediately shuts off?
I have a 07 is350 stock...I get in push the brake, the start button lights up green..then while Im still holding the brake I press the start button, car starts, but just for a split second...then shuts off...this is the second time this has happened in a couple of weeks...anyone got any ideas to why this is doing this...

check the sensor on your intake. make sure it is properly fit into place. i know that my sensor was unhooked and i had the same issue. other than that. just take it to lexus if you have warranty
|
ok...do you mean the mass air senso?...havent even messed with anything under the hood yet...but hey ..Ill look anyway! thanks
|
not sure it is the sensor...i could start my car fine with the sensor unhooked, vsc light just lights up... maybe its the battery?
|
are you holding down the button when you press it? i ran into this too..then i figured i was holding down the button too long..
|
maybe so...I will pay more attention to how long I hold it down...if thats it I will feel like such a dumb ass...LOL...battery is ok..not draggin on any starts...just started it up a min ago and its fine..dosent do it all the time ..just sometimes..but will watch how long Im holding down the start button :)
|
It's not so much as you holding down the START button long enough it's moreso you holding down the BRAKE PEDAL longer..sometimes my car will do it but it's because I let my foot off the brake too quickly..so check that too.
|
Can't be the battery if the car cranks and starts.
Keep you foot on the brake a bit longer like eric said. That might be it. |
+2. If you take your foot off the brake just as the engine starts, it results in a stall.

I hope that's the problem because i have been having the same issue
|
Same year and model
|
+1 on the brake pedal. Also if you let the button go too soon it can stall as well.
|
You don't have to hold the button. Just hold the brake pedal
|
Could be a bad ignition switch. Is it pulling up any CEL codes?
