2018 GX 460. Lexus mechanic installed it for me yesterday 11/29/23. He said he heard of older ones having the issue but hasn’t seen it in the newer ones. I didn’t want to take any chances. He said the Uni filter is much better than the OE filter. Was surprised dealer would even install it.
For the second mod: The secondary-air pump draws in ambient air and injects it into the exhaust manifold downstream of the exhaust valves. There is a separate integrated air filter if the air is not drawn in from the intake system but rather directly from the engine compartment.
The reason it does not come with the window feature, rolling your windows down and up all at the same time can put a compromising electrical load on the system. I have the Base, SAImod, bfg ko2s same size as original, prinsu rack, and nothing else.
Oxygen sensor could possibly through a code.. I was told ? But I can't see how? UNI air filter is much better than K&N which would definitely cause issues because of the oil..
Quick question , I noticed your coolant reservoir is all the way down at the bottom ! Is that normal ? Have you had any issues with coolant leaking ? Reason why I’m asking when I got mine it has that much coolant in it and I had to add some coolant to it. Thanks for your input and great video
Hi I filled the reserve reservoir to the max soon after and it only went down bit so far... even after a 2000 miles trip recently. I brought an extra gallon for this trip as a caution but didn't even need that.
I do, lexus kept this same chasis since 2009. It was built with functionality and durability in mind. The next gen won't have a V8 anymore, I'm not sold on the new V6 twin turbo.
Just picked up a 2017. I liked my past 4runners and tacomas but truly love my gx 460. Mpg’s arent great but not as bad as you think it would be for a solid V8.
Do you still like the folding mirror mod? I took off the controller. The device kept opening the windows and we had rain a few times. No I didn’t hold the unlock button. The module just started to act up.
Not sure if it happens on your year model, but for i believe the 20-22 models that the auto fold mirrors. Using the remote start with from FOB or enform app. Once the 10min run time runs out the factory alarm will go off every time with the remote start. Also. Using the device to auto roll up/down the windows. It will not close the sun/moon roof. It will open no problem., but you will have to manually close it everytime. Its ok for warm weather as you wont use remote. But i have to remove for colder weather using the remote start.
Yeah, this also close and open the sun roof as well, just need to hold the unlock button. Click the unlock button 3 times then it only roll down the windows.
@krazyleg that plug in allows you to open and close the windows and the sunroof with the key fob. I'd think that works for 2022 as well since GX didn't have any major update... mine is 2019.
@@sevendeuces Yes for 2010-2013 years there was a special service campaign released in 2019 to replace the pump and valves. This addressed the cause of the valve failure.
That small piece of sponge inside the secondary air housing will get disintegrated over time and those little pieces will get sucked inside that can cause a host of issues, even put the GX in limp mode. Toyota even had a bulletin to remind everyone to remember to replace that sponge. We replaced that with the motorcycle filter so we don't have to do that anymore.
@@ralphsantibanez9963 search for obd folding mirror gx460 or click on the link in desc to the exact one that I got. I believe they have your year on Amazon as well.
That's what the filter designed for, blocking out dirt and stuff. The problem with the sponge is it will disintegrate to pieces over time and get sucked inside.

If you are talking about the tip cover on the side, you don't need that anymore. The filter replaced that. You still need the top cover which you insert the filter into.
Not sure all but if you do you should have a folding button from your dashboard. It would be located on the dashboard right next to the door, on the left side of the steering wheel looking toward the front.
That is the secondary air filter, lexus had a sponge inside the housing. I replaced that sponge with this motorcycle filter. The sponge will disintegrate overtime and get sucked inside which will cause a host of problems, even put the gx in limp mode.
@Tim Johnston your dashboard litup like Xmas tree and your rig only operates with minimal power and barely able to move. Will need to fix whichever issue then clear those codes before it can be fully functional again.
@@sevendeuces Thanks. Does the mirror folding/unfolding works also with the door handle lock/unlock? otherwise you have to get the key out of your pocket every time.
@jdesmo1 it works with the door handles lock and unlock as well since lock and unlock function ties to the lock and unlock function on the key fob, is that make sense?.
@@sevendeuces Great, definitely a useful mod. I'm picking up my brand new 2023 GX Black Line in Nori Green next week-so excited. Regarding the second mod on this vid, I fully understand the benefits, but since it's exposed change under the hood- might it be an issue with the factory warranty?
@jdesmo1 nah I don't think so. They would have to prove that your mods somehow make the situation worst but in this case it is actually enhance it. Toyota even had a bulletin awhile back about their little sponges problem. That nori green color is Fire 🔥!
Not sure, I actually found out about this over the club lexus forum. Machine323 was the genius that came up with this fix/mod. Toyota knew about this issue.
@1sholland18 the oem foam in the secondary air will get disintegrated overtime and get sucked inside. That will give you a host of error codes and issues. The motorcycle filter mod will eliminate that problem.
Is the secondary air pump system on these GX's suppose to make a vacuum cleaner noise for the first 15-30 seconds on a cold start?? I installed this mod last weekend and my foam filter was still all so that is good but I am just wondering if and when it will ever fail. I don't want to be on a road trip somewhere and my truck go into limp mode. My GX is a 2014 with 98k miles on it.
It does on mine as well but not that long duration though and I got used to that by now not even notice the hissing anymore. My personal opinion, you shouldn't get into limp mode because of that sponge problem if you removed it already.
It replaced the sponge inside. The sponge will disintegrate over time and the little pieces will get sucked inside. That'd would mess up the sensors and will throw all kind of error lights on your dash. And that will put your vehicle in limp mode. They will need to clean all that out to fix it. Toyota had a bulletin about that issue.
The OEM sponge will disintegrate over time and the debris will get sucked inside and will seize the engine. Basically it will be in limp mode until you can clean all of that debris from inside. Put in that motorcycle filter and remove that sponge will eliminate that issue down the road.
For sure the filter is the same. You can check on Amazon for the OBD connector for 2023, it works on our friend 2021 and I believe 2021-2023 are identical.

You don't need to pull the cap off before you pull the cover ... pull the cover then pull the cap off... easier that way

are there any risks to using this?
For the second mod why do you need to keep the part you're replacing and for what inspection?
Incase some difficult smog check station require OEM air part. Not all the times but who knows...

Ain't the windows and mirror functions are standard on 2022 and up. You can still do the filter mod for 2023.
