Can anybody beat $2030 for the Lexus 7 year 100,000 mile platinum warranty?

How long did it take you to get the injectors out? Just curious. From reading my repair manual on my 90 LS 400, it appears your have to remove a lot of stuff before you can get to the injectors. My shop said 6 hours of labor. Just curious, how long it took you?

1990 LS 400 with 212K miles My Lexus idles super low and it runs a bit rough until it warms up in cold weather. As I have never had the injectors cleaned, perhaps they are due. No mechanic has ever suggested sending them out for cleaning.

Doing some trouble shooting. I did some research in my factory repair manual and found the following concerning my trouble code 31. Code 31 goes into the ECU memory which then "makes the ECU operate in the fail safe function, keeping the ignition timing and fuel injection volume constant and...

Took it in to the dealer and they saw code 31. Diagnosis is replace with a new MAF sensor at $1004. Then step 2 is recheck system and see if problem still exists. I assume the next step is to replace the idle speed control valve at $600. The car has gradually gone down in idle over the last...
