Hi all, I have an issue I was hoping you all could help me with. I had a 1990 Lexus 400 that I always took to a mechanic that used to be a mechanic in the Lexus dealership. He has always been great, uses only Lexus parts, and is much more reasonably priced. However, after having my Lexus for 14 years, I decided to give it to my inlaws (it still runs great) and buy myself an 2004 Lexus LX470. At the first
15K miles I took I called the dealership and the Major maintenance was $450. I called this mechanic and it was $229 with him and it included all the same exact things, so I took it in. Now, it's just not running the same, it seems to hiccup and after I break hard and hit the accelerator again. I took it back and he said the problem was that he had to reset the computer and it's always an issue with all the newer cars. I tweaked the computer again, it's better, but not the same. I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and take it into the dealer. What would you tell the dealer? Thing is, I really don't think they need to do an ENTIRE major maintenance, just check the computer thing. Your thoughts??
Thanks,
Carlos
