Add TOYOTA Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) into the radiator reservoir.
| Capacity |
|---|
| Approximately 5.0 liters (5.3 US qts, 4.4 Imp. qts) |
Tech Tips
LEXUS vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
Contact any authorized LEXUS dealer or repairer or another duly qualified and equipped professional for further details.
Thermostat opening timing can be confirmed by squeezing the inlet radiator hose and sensing vibrations when the coolant starts to flow inside the hose.
Further add coolant into the reservoir until it reaches the FULL line.
Squeeze the No. 1 and No. 2 radiator hoses several times, and then check the coolant level.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant.
Using a 6 mm socket hexagon wrench, install the vent plug.
Bleed air from the cooling system.
Note
Before starting the engine, turn the A/C switch off.
While idling the engine for approximately 10 minutes, make sure that the coolant remains at the FULL line by adding coolant as necessary.
After idling the engine for 10 minutes, add coolant to the level shown in the illustration.
| Capacity |
|---|
| Approximately 2.5 to 3.5 liters (2.6 to 3.7 US qts, 2.2 to 3.1 Imp.qts) |
Close the radiator reservoir cap, and run the engine at 1500 to 2000 rpm for 5 minutes.
Tech Tips
Thermostat opening timing can be confirmed by squeezing the No. 1 radiator hose and sensing vibrations when the SLLC starts to flow inside the hose.
CAUTION:
When squeezing the radiator hose:
Wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hose is hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fan.
Stop the engine and wait until the coolant cools down to ambient temperature.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the radiator reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.
Check the coolant level.
If the coolant level is below the FULL line, add coolant until it reaches the FULL line.
ADD AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
CHARGE REFRIGERANT
Perform vacuum purging using a vacuum pump.
Charge refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).
| Standard |
|---|
| 400 to 500g (14.10 to 17.63 oz.) |
Note
Do not operate the cooler compressor before charging refrigerant as the cooler compressor will not work properly without any refrigerant, and will overheat.
Approximately 100 g (3.53 oz.) of refrigerant may need to be charged after bubbles disappear. The refrigerant amount should be checked by measuring its quantity, and not with the sight glass.
INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK
INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK
Note
Before performing each inspection, turn the A/C switch OFF.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the radiator reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.
Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap tester.
Warm up the engine.
Using the radiator cap tester, increase the pressure inside the radiator to 118 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm2, 17 psi), and check that the pressure does not drop.
If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator and water pump for leaks. If no external leaks are found, check the heater core, cylinder block and head.
INSPECT FOR FUEL LEAK
Check fuel pump operation.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Note
Do not start the engine.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / Speed.
Check for pressure in the fuel inlet tube from the fuel line. Check that sounds of fuel flowing in the fuel tank can be heard. If no sounds can be heard, check the instrument panel junction block, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connectors.
Inspect for fuel leaks.
Check that there are no fuel leaks from the fuel system after performing any maintenance. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts as necessary.
Turn the engine switch off.

VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR FOG LIGHT AIMING
Prepare the vehicle:
Ensure that that there is no damage or deformation to the body around the fog lights.
Fill the fuel tank.
Make sure that the oil is filled to the specified level.
Make sure that the engine coolant is filled to the specified level.
Inflate the tires to the appropriate pressure.
Unload the trunk and vehicle, ensuring that the spare tire, tools, and jack are in their original positions.
Sit a person of average weight (75 kg, 165 lb) in the driver's seat.
Vehicles with height adjustable suspension should set the vehicle height to the lowest setting prior to adjusting the fog light aim.
PREPARATION FOR FOG LIGHT AIMING
Prepare the vehicle:
Place the vehicle in a location that is dark enough to clearly observe the cutoff line. The cutoff line is a distinct line, below which light from the fog lights can be observed and above which it cannot.
Place the vehicle at a 90° angle to the wall.
Create a 25 m (82 ft.) distance between the vehicle (fog light bulb center) and the wall.
Make sure that the vehicle is on a level surface.
Position the front wheels straight ahead.
Bounce the vehicle up and down several times to settle the suspension.
Note
A distance of 25 m (82 ft.) between the vehicle (fog light bulb center) and the wall is necessary for proper aim adjustment. If sufficient space is not available, secure a distance of exactly 3 m (9.84 ft.) to allow for checking and adjustment of fog light aim. (The size of the target zone will change with the distance, so follow the instructions in the illustration.)
Prepare a piece of thick white paper (approximately 2 m (6.6 ft.) (height) x 4 m (13.1 ft.) (width)) to use as a screen.
Draw a vertical line down the center of the screen (V line).
Set the screen as shown in the illustration.
Tech Tips
Stand the screen perpendicular to the ground.
Align the V line on the screen with the center of the vehicle.
Draw base lines (H, V LH, and V RH lines) on the screen as shown in the illustration.
Tech Tips
Mark the fog light bulb center marks on the screen. If the center mark cannot be observed on the fog light, use the center of the fog light bulb or the manufacturer's name marked on the fog light as the center mark.
H Line (Fog light height):
Draw a horizontal line across the screen so that it passes through the center marks. The H line should be at the same height as the fog light bulb center marks of the fog lights.
V LH Line, V RH Line (Center mark positions of left-hand (LH) and right-hand (RH) fog lights):
Draw two vertical lines so that they intersect the H line at each center mark aligned with the center of the fog light bulbs.
INSPECT FOG LIGHT AIMING
Cover the fog light or disconnect the connector of the fog light on the opposite side to prevent light from the fog light that is not being inspected from affecting the fog light aiming inspection.
Note
Do not keep the fog light covered for more than 3 minutes. The fog light lens is made of synthetic resin, which may melt or be damaged due to excessive heat.
Start the engine.
Turn on the fog light and check if the cutoff line falls within the specified area in the following illustration.
ADJUST FOG LIGHT ASSEMBLY
Adjust the aim vertically:
Adjust the aim of each fog light to the specified range by turning each aiming screw with a screwdriver.
Note
The final turn of the aiming screw should be made in the clockwise direction. If the screw is tightened excessively, loosen it and then retighten it so that the final turn of the screw is in the clockwise direction.
Tech Tips
If it is not possible to correctly adjust the fog light aim, check bulb, fog light unit, and fog light unit reflector installation.
