Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Sport Edition Sluggish And Slight Decrease In Mpg


Sep 2, 2013

I have an 06 sport edition with 83k miles. Never a problem or complaint. If I'm not going crazy, I think that I am noticing a very slight performance decrease. I bought this with 63k miles on it and I'm not 100% sure what servicing was done before. Where to start, spark plugs or something like that?

Lexus IS 2014+ :: New LS300 Sluggish Even In Sport Mode

2016 IS300.

I've had it for 4 days now, and I've never had a brand new car so maybe this is a moot point. But the car simply feels heavy and sluggish. I'm at a little over 300 miles and the car just doesn't have much zip compared to my 2010 IS. Also, when I had the clear bra done at Lexus they gave me an identical loaner (2016 IS300 AWD) with around 800 miles and it felt totally different.

I remember with my 2010 reading that the car has to "learn" how you drive, etc. With my 2016 it'll go from a dead stop, them a couple of shifts in it drops to a super low gear. Even in sport mode it feels sluggish. In ECO mode... Well, lets just say that feels laughable.

Why was my loaner (which was identical to my new car) much zippier in the normal mode? Is this something I should be concerned about? The car runs fine, just no zip (yet).

Lexus IS 2014+ :: IS350 F Sport - Slight Clicking Noise Near Steering Column

Just received my car back from the service department and noticed a slight clicking sound that isn't too loud, it's mechanical sounding.. Quieter than a ball point pen retracting I'd say. It clicks every quarter of a turn while stopped and low speeds.

IS F (2008-2014) :: Car Is Very Sluggish And Up Shifts Slow Even With Sport Mode On

I recently traded in my 2013 Audi TTRS in a very limited edition color. For my 2008 Lexus ISF... With 71k Miles. And I feel as if the car is very sluggish and up shifts are slow even with sport mode on! My buddy has an ISF as well and he even said mine shifts slower than his. I was wondering if maybe the previous owner skipped a few key maintainence things to cause such an issue. And yes I know how to drive a care, yes it's in sport mode and yes the vehicle is warmed prior to stupidity. The last recorded maintenance was at 60K miles.

Lexus IS 2014+ :: IS250 F-Sport In Sport Mode?

It's just the throttle response? Is steering or brakes enhanced or is it just me? I know the Is250 didn't get the suspension option like the IS350.

Prius C :: Slight Sluggish Feel At Takeoffs

Don't get me wrong this car wasn't a speed demon anyways, but now it seems like it takes a little more throttle to get going. It could be bad gas or something, I'm not sure. Ive only had it 2 months. Would it hurt to put a fuel treatment through it? Slight sluggish feel then what you were use to when you bought it? 2800 Miles on my C2...

When taking our 2007 RX out of say a 72 degree garage to say a 90 degree day, it takes at least 10 minutes for the outside temp gauge to finally creep up to the ambient temperature. The gauge feels very sluggish at all other times.

Golf IV R32 :: Sluggish On Initial Acceleration And Very Slight Backfire - Camshaft Hall Sensor Loose

I had been driving around for a few days and the car had been feeling a bit sluggish on initial acceleration and there was also a very slight backfire.
Just seemed to have lost some crispness. No fault codes thrown with VAGCOM.

Found one of the Camshaft Hall Sensors loose. I have had this before with the exhaust cam sensor but this time it was the inlet one. The bolt just comes a bit loose and the sensor can swivel around very slightly if you move it with your hand.

It seems to be enough to upset the the performance but not enough to throw any codes - after all it is still working perfectly sending a signal as far as VAGCOM is concerned.

Just need to nip it up again with an M5 Allen key and you are golden. One with a ball end makes it easier to get to. Just regained about 20 HP

Pic for information ....

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Heated Seats - Auto Decrease Or Stays The Same?

How does your heated seats control operation work? Does the heat control automatically decrease from position 3 > 2 > 1 > Off over-time? Or, does the heat control stay (remain) in whatever position (1 - 2 - 3) you select without any (auto) change?

What is the default operation - Auto Decrease or Stays the Same?

How to change the heated seat operation method? I recall seeing somewhere to hold both heated seat button controls down until it beeps to make a change in the method of operation...and doing the same again will change it back. How to confirm that this (change) method to be accurate?

Lexus ES 2013+ :: Audio Level Does Not Decrease When Navigation Talking

My audio volume does not decrease when the navigation talks. Rather, I have to keep the navigation voice level high and it simply talks over the music/audio. Is this supposed to happen or do I have something set wrong? I can't believe the audio doesn't lower automatically the same way it does for a phone call.

2004 Prius and I have lots of static in the AM radio. Some days it is worse than others mostly I am unable to listen to it. If the car is in accessory, the static in the AM radio is not there. As I drive the car the static will increase or decrease based on the proximity to the overhead wires. There are days however where the static will be hardly noticeable. I've owned the car since 2006 and have always had this issue.
