2016 Lexus GX460 Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my GX460? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your GX460 firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Lexus GX460 engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Lexus GX460. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage a Lexus engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Lexus GX460 engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I add water to my Lexus GX460 radiator? Only in emergencies. A 50/50 mix of coolant and water (or a pre-mixed) coolant is recommended. However, if you must keep driving when you're out of coolant, it's better to drive with water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What can cause the engine in my GX460 to suddenly stop? If your GX460 car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
