Been looking into getting a 2IS 350 and you really made me sure I want one. Keep the great vids up ! Glad to see a Lexus vlogger since there’s barely any
To anyone watching this, ONLY use Toyota OEM PCV valves. Using aftermarket valves causes issues on most brands, but in my experience Toyota/Lexus seem to be more sensitive. These are only $10 at the dealer
Was able to pull this off today, thanks to you maan .. was a little challenging but igot it !, I’m a new follower btw kind of bummed out that u don’t have your IS350 but your Lexus videos are helping me out with my 08 lexus is250 Ijust got
Dude, I used your link and ordered the part. Swapped it out and my car is acting waaaaaaaaay better. I’m super grateful for your video and the link! 👊🏼
Who would have thought it's the same part as the subaru one. Huh! Just bought an IS 350 for my daughter with a few miles and just doing a few refreshing, pcv came around and i was like I have a new one somewhere from my subaru stock parts and wala!!! Thanks for directions of where it's at
Thanks, Marty for these useful videos. Please I would like to take youadvice regarding my Lexus issue I own 2008 IS300 120Km recently I got low engine oil light and during starting there is a little white smoke from the exhaust, I lost 3 liter of oil during one month (around 4000KM), thanks in advance.
I’m having a similar issue with my 2006 is250. I’m losing a quart of oil every 350 miles. No smoke tho, or leaks. It’s a known issue with a recall, the rings are bad. I got the car used and can’t get the recall sadly.
Wow, it's done 260,000kms for our metric friends. Random question, have you ever changed the spark plugs, or fuel filter? I've just gone past 100,000kms and have no idea if the plugs have ever been changed, although they may have when the heads were off for the valve spring recall, but I have nothing that tells me if they have or not.
Hey marty! Question. Any issues you had that would make you think to replace the pcv valve or just a maintenance item because ofthe mileage? If youre finding some kimd of difference i should look into it too...
Hey! I had a rough idle recently so I cleaned my throttle body and made a video as well. I figured this was an easy thing to replace as well and it has totally eliminated the rough idle now. Plus it was time with this mileage
So my replacement didn’t come with the little pink gasket. Which I find strange it wasn’t included as it came from the dealer. Can I reuse the old one?
Hi Marty, thanks for the video. I just noticed mine valve wasn't tightened all the way down, so like 4 threads are visible. Should you tighten the valve like it was or is it better to tighten completely?
Would this cause a CEL evap code? I have the code P0441, i did a smoke test and had a decent amount of smoke coming from the gas cap so I replaced it with oem. Cleared the code drove a bit and it came back on. I had 16 codes for EVAP so I changed my evap canister. Cleared the code and drove about 40 miles and it came back on. I havent scanned it again to see what it says but its throwing my CEL and ABS light. They both came on together when it first came on and still both are on. Ive heard of switching my Vacuum Switch Valve or Fuel Tank Pressure Censor or even just damaged hoses. I didn’t really think to check the hoses to my Evap canister but i checked the ones to my VSV and they seemed fine. Gonna check near the PCV valve and see if any of those are damaged but my 350 only has 87k miles. It’s kind of getting annoying replacing parts that aren’t fixing the problem lol
Good afternoon marty I have a little problem I have a Lexus IS 350 2006 it turns on check vsc and it changes the gas cap and the pcv valve and returns to learn what I scan it tells me (PO456)could you tell me that it may be thanks greetings from Los Ángeles cal
I have a 08 it burns a qt every thousand miles or so I just got it so idk if previous owner was using full synthetic oil or not but I Kno if they weren't that could be a reason running a engine oil treatment can help as well
My 2006 IS350 (220,000 km) has a timing cover leak that will cost $3,000 to fix. Apparently it's a common issue with the IS350. Right now I just add extra motor oil when the warning light comes on, which is what a lot of people do. Do you have this problem?
Hey bro got a question I got a Lexus is350 2006 I just got a new transmission on it but when I do a oil change it keeps saying low oil engine when I already did a oil change is it burinng oil or is it something else???????
my 06 350 drank 3.3qts of oil in just 3k miles!!! I was shocked. Only 3k miles since I changed the oil and it was nearly empty. I guess PCV and cleaning intake throttle body can help improve this. It's normal thoigh according to the manual for it to consume that much oil lol.
@@MartyMotoring hey Marty I have enjoyed you videos I have recently bought my 08 is350 with 137 enjoy the hell out of previous owner was a douche tho he diddnt respect the car properly the dash is trashed I Kno it had a recall he diddnt do it so now I'm stuck with his screwed up dash besides it runs like a dream burns oil bout a qt every thousand or do does your consume oil as well just curious also I periodically out of nowhere been getting check engine with the vsc as well as Trac light code is p420 very generic could be anything from gas cap to clogged converter curious if you think my pcv being dirty coupled with dirty carbon filled throttle body have you had this code along the way
I have a 1997 Es 300 Lexus with the same code. It's the Evap purge valve/solenoid. I bought a Dorman brand that was made in China. The light came back on so I have to get the genuine Lexus part
I owned a 06 is250 wich recently changed the spark plugs (6/10 difficulty job). After that (1or 2 days after) put gas in my car and VCS, Check engine and track off lights came on. I read that can be a loose gas cap or a vacum hose. Check for any loose hose but don't see any. Any ideas on that?
Hm that’s strange. Might be bad gas? I’d get the code read off the OBD2 port and go from there. Sometimes octane booster in the tank can help and tighten the cap. See what happens
@@jerryl10000 No. But like a week ago went to a mechanic i saw working in a Lexus whe i went to change my tpms to a shop so i ask him and he describe exactly what happen with my is without me telling him. In results he say he's pretty sure is carbon canister cause the code that throw. P0441 and p0455 (evaporative emissions system incorrect purge flow) 🤷🏽♂️
Hi my car is choking after a fast drive the idle is rough up and down if the car is on drive and jerks/vibrates a little? Could this be PCV as well I had the gasket seal changed and after this problem happened. Checked for vacuum leak as well the tubes seem fine.
Marty or anyone else I have a code of p0300 (multiple cylinder misfire) I changed the spark plugs and still same. Car is vibrating and once on freeway check engine light and trac light came on then when I put into park was idling bad. Turned off then on and idled normal no lights but runs same. Noticed its using more oil than usual, any suggestions?
I would change coil packs if your not getting isolated cylinder misfire I would change them all atleast keep doing them one at a time and you need to not get super cheap parts probably get away with step down from denso but not all 6 for 30 bucks or some shit

Thanks for the tutorial video bro. BTW, I was able to use the 19mm wrench to remove it. Just need to move a few things out of the way.

Thank you my man!! I just saved money and did it myself because of you!! I truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge!
I did it bro!!
Mahalo!!
I broke the bit of the hose on the top but it holds but I did it!!
Thanks so much for the Video!!
You need more recognition thank you!
Hey brother; I like your videos and would like to see more uploads of how you replace and add your gauges and things to you Lexus.. I own a 07 IS250
Dude, I used your link and ordered the part. Swapped it out and my car is acting waaaaaaaaay better. I’m super grateful for your video and the link! 👊🏼
Glad I could help!
Thanks Marty. Will be replacing mine as soon as it gets a little warmer 👍
This help me out a lot bro . Easy to install . Notice a change in my Lexus .
What exactly you notice? I want to change mine as well and see if will make it better
I tend to change mine every 30K miles. As you mentioned it's a peace of mind mantaince item.
Any plans on installing an oil catch can? I'm debating on for 3IS.
God damn Marty motor man. That thing was a bitch to replace but I got it done. Thanks for the video buddy
50 Hp gain

Nice and simple like a honda. Thats encouraging.
TheRegistrant it’s more close to Toyota after all their from the same family
You should install a oil catch can for help fighting carbon build up.
Added to the things I'll do when I do the spark plugs 🤣
Thanks Marty! I will be replacing mine... 107k. But my idle is a little rough at times. I will clean my throttle body also.
I was able to get it off with just a chrome socket and extension
Deep socket, I'm assuming?
what size socket ?
Lexusboys!!! Who a Lexusboy?!!!
lol yea lexus 4 life

If you're seeing white smoke, it probably means the rings are bad. You're gonna need new rings.

A plumber would use a basin wrench🤙🏻😉 that’s how I did mine! Lol
I bought the PVC from the dealer and it didn’t come with the top pink plastic part. Is it needed?
my 07 IS350 is having issues idling rough any recommendations?
Preview for that intake!

I haven’t done fuel filter nor spark plugs yet. I should look into that!
No need for fuel filter change. It is inside fuel tank.
im about to do this in two days
How often should it changed out ?. appreciate if maybe you know how to replace the automatic day/night sensor.?.

Same question here
What are the benefits of changing the PCV valve?
what kind of rims are those and what size?

I had that code + 2 more codes. And I found the problem last week.
my pcv valve came without the little purple rubber seal, should it still be okay?

Is there any reason why the pcv valve on a lexus is350 dosent screw in all the way.
I have a Lexus is350 2006 it’s buring a lot of oil what u think it is ???

I bought 2008 is250 last month and I think I need to change the PCV valve.

Do you have this problem?
I haven't had any leaks, but also haven't checked recently. I'll probably do that when I can get under a lift and make a video!
Do you know what size crows foot it was
19mm

Check your dip stick to make sure, but early year 350s are notorious for burning oil unfortunately :/

on my 250 theres some other metal hose in the way this gonna be a pain
Great vid! Did you put any thread glue on the valve?
That's the one step I realized I forgot later...but it hasn't come out or anything!
Do you need to screw it all the way down I see mine seems to have a lot of thread still
This applies for an 08 IS250
Are you planning getting the Vland headlights?
Probably not right now. I have the VIPMotoz since 2017 ans I just did a video on them. I would like to mod the OEM ones if anything
What do you mean mod the OEM ones

Can a bad PCV valve cause a P0441 (Incorrect purge flow) code?
I have a 1997 Es 300 Lexus with the same code. It's the Evap purge valve/solenoid. I bought a Dorman brand that was made in China. The light came back on so I have to get the genuine Lexus part
Cool vid hope you cleaned up the oil that thing must have left on the floor jk keep up the good content
🤣🤣 Clean as a whistle
How do u know if this part needs replacement? What symptoms will the car have
If you have rough idle, engine sludge or any kind of buildup from mileage, it may be time to change it
It burns a large amount of oil

Nope

Part Number 12204-31040..?
Yes
At 47,000 miles looks like my 08 250’s finally went bad.
Anyone tried a flexi ratchet wrench? Otherwise will buy some crow foot spanners 😊. Cheers
Just use a breaker bar.
It would’ve been easier to pull the intake off
No, because you would have to remove intake
I just tried this shit and I fucking lost my crow foot god dammit
