occasionally, as i slow up to a stop and/or a turn, when i hit the gas, i get nothing...a second of no response at all, as if no gas is getting to the injectors, or something...then, it takes off....it happens at least once a day, but not every time its driven...however, its scary, when you are at a stop, and take off to get out in traffic, and ...then ...nothing...then it takes off...would this possibly be a TPS issue?...i asked about replacing the fuel filter at the 60K service, and they recommended that i NEVER change it...i dont know why...i am not sure if a fuel filter would do it either....thanks for the help and suggestions, in advance!...wayne

 

You are collect. It's TPS issue, but some case it will need a complete throttle body. How many miles on your LS and what's kind of relationship with your dealer?

 

thanks for responding...I have 53, 300 miles on my 2000 LS400....as for my relationship with my dealer, my Lexus dealer is over an hour away, but i have a Toyota dealer that has 2 Lexus-certifed master techs...
i broguth it to them a week ago, and they did a top engine treatment, but it didnt help....
