Stalled!!!!
Ok guys, in the last couple of moths my car has stalled twice while idle and in traffic! I have an akimoto air filter, borlas and a stereo. Does anyone know what the problem could be. Im no enginyr, but thinkin it might be cause of the filter or because its not been oiled up or cleaned in 9k. Someone help.

Check out the rough idle forum
Dude havent you read the rough idle forum? I almost have the fix for this problem. Its very common for GS400 owners to have rough idle and stalls. I will post the fix if there is one by tonight.

my car stalled twice since ive had it.. ( about 1 year) i read on the board it was the TPS, BUT if the lex dealer can not DUPLICATE the problem they will say.. TOOOO BAAAAD like pohanka did.. i suggest you try lexus of rockville. they replaced mine AND my friends. i havent had anymore problems.. but it only stalled twice in a year so.. honeslty i dont know if it fixed the problem. Hope this helps. good luck!
