#3884 of 3903 Re: funky looking oil [JBaumgart] by wwest Nov 12, 2007 (1:28 pm)
Replying to: JBaumgart (Nov 11, 2007 5:57 pm) Yes, but apparently you also must be careful about not breaking the ROUTINE of these routine maintainance schedules/procedures. Remember that most dealers use McD graduates for this level of work.   There was only once, LONG AGO, that I put a 6 pack of Mobil 1 in the trunk of my then new 1992 LS400 to be used for the oil change. When I got the car back I quickly discovered that the "technician" had poured the Mobil 1 into the engine without first draining the old oil.   Lesson learned.
#3885 of 3903 Coasting in Neutral with AWD? by briegel Aug 02, 2008 (6:39 am)
I have a 2005 RX 330 AWD. What are the concerns with coasting downhill in NEUTRAL at speeds ranging from 25-70 mph to save fuel? Potentially damaging to the transmission and/or the AWD system? Thanks! Replies to this message: tidester (Aug 02, 2008 10:51 am) steve_ (Jan 02, 2009 1:06 pm)

Replying to: briegel (Aug 02, 2008 6:39 am) In addition to possibly being illegal, there are safety concerns. Besides, you're not really using all that much fuel driving downhill in gear anyway. The ECU senses the load on the engine and adjusts the flow of fuel accordingly.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: steve_ (Jan 02, 2009 1:06 pm)
#3887 of 3903 2005 Lexus RX330 ABS VSC light on by sunroom Dec 30, 2008 (5:33 pm)
My car's brake lights at both left & right sides are off while the top one(3rd) is on. I thought it's light bulb problem and open it up to check wire first. I opened the right side one first. after pulling out the socket & test it with voltage DC meter, the 3rd light went off too, and at the same time, both ABS and VSC lights are on TOO. what's happening? should I disconnect the negative power before checking? the manual said once disconnecting, it needs resetting a lot of systems, like lighting system, power windows constrol system, etc. Is it true and always necessary? Do I need to buy a code scanner to do this? thanks for reply in advance.
