I own a 2003 ls 430 and recently had a check engine light, I realized the car was burning gas at a rapid pace so I took my car to Richie he diagnose the problem and came up with multiple codes. He explained to me the meaning of the codes but let me know that one code can trigger other bad codes, he advised me to change my oxygen sensors and I did. This guy is honest and reliable and not only that his prices are good. I have been driving cars for over twenty years and haven't came across a mechanic as honest as Richie. I have been driving the car for over a week now with better gas mileage and no check engine light.

If you are in the Brooklyn Queens area own a Lexus and needs a mechanic see Richie at
3394 Atlantic, Brooklyn NY
Or call him at 718 235 3085

Look for the Lexus logo on his shop he is a Lexus specialist

Take care of him by walking your friends and family in. Not sure if you posted this in your regional section but I'm sure the folks in that group would also appreciate a honest mechanic. Good stuff!

There are 4 oxygen sensors and are fairly expensive if going for OEM. Usually one goes bad but not all 4. If your problem is solved at a fair price, you have a rare find with your mechanic. Thanks for sharing.
