step one: post in correct forum

step two: clear code and see if it comes back

step three: research fuel, specifically Top Tier, only buy from those companies.

Since you have a 2013 RX350 maybe a moderator can move this to the third generation forum.

Thanks for the reply.
I did manage to clear the code but the engine still sounds a little funny

Put a can of Techron in your tank. When tank is half empty, fill up with top tier premium. I'm curious though. What makes you think it's bad gas? Did you get a load of water?

Thanks for the reply. The problem had to do with one of the spark plugs missfiring. Once i replaced it the issue was resolved.
Thanks for all the help really appreciated
