Questions About 1996 Lexus LX450 Engines

  • Why does the check engine light in my LX450 turn on when I start my car? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your LX450 testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are Lexus LX450 engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Lexus LX450. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage my Lexus LX450 engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, flooring the gas pedal while the car is in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I add water to my Lexus LX450 radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your LX450 radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What could cause my LX450 engine to suddenly stop? Reasons your LX450 car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
