Same with @giS , he’s out there hustling and hasn’t had time to put the miles on. Me? I drive 11 miles just to get a lottery ticket twice a week. My butt can’t stay out of this thing! 😎
Lol i feel you. I drive 12 miles round trip to get coffee from the shop thats a mile from my house. 😂

I don't recall if I provided an update to our IS500 (2022 LE Canadian Market) here. Infamous CEL came on but it was not the exhaust gasket like many others. Basically every time the weather was warm and we'd driven in heavy stop and go traffic it lit up like a Xmas tree. The idle was off so the dealership ordered a new ECM from Japan. That still didn't work so they replaced the throttle body and that has solved the issue.
Sooooo, guess it's my turn...Ugh! Thought I got a Check Engine Light pass when I made it to 10,000 miles with no issues. I informed the service department that this is likely a gasket issue, buuuuut they claimed they can only act on the results of the system scan which is as follows:
"Checked for codes and found P013A. Oxygen Sensor slow response rich to lean bank 1 sensor 2. No TSB for this code at this time. Cleared codes. Checked for exhaust leak. No leak found at this time. Road test vehicle. Could not duplicate issue. 02 sensors are in range. Monitors passed. Need to create TAS case and check vehicle again. Customer did not want to leave vehicle at this time. Will reschedule for diagnosis."
No Toyota Service Bulletin was surprising given this is clearly an issue with this model. At any rate, it's cleared for now, but I suspect I will need to return to the service center in the near future as the Check Engine Light may very well return. Will keep you posted...

Awe hell!! 🤬😞
I’m almost at 10k myself and I thought mileage that high meant you were safe. ::sigh:: Hang in there and thanks for letting us know!
1. Good on you for not leaving your car there, I wouldn’t either.
Hello All, anyone with a 2023 model experienced the CEL problem? Wondering if Lexus has addressed this at the factory or is defaulting to the service departments to sort out (ala Tesla style).
My dealer says couple of new IS500's coming early next year and thinking of pulling the trigger once and for all. Been mulling this for over a year now ever since the 1st CEL light came on and announced on this forum.
