Issues and Maintenance Tips for Lexus 5.7 V8 Engine
Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a vehicle equipped with the Lexus 5.7 V8 engine, and I wanted to get some advice from experienced owners. I’ve noticed occasional rough idling and slight hesitation during acceleration. Before I take it to a mechanic, I wanted to ask if these are common issues with this engine. Also, what are the best maintenance practices to keep a Lexus 5.7 V8 engine running smoothly over the long term? Any tips on oil type, timing chain care, or known weak points would be greatly appreciated. |
