(Very detailed TSB on this issue.) High pressure oil cooling line routed next to exhaust manifold blew. Vehicle did not signal a problem although empty of oil. Driven 20+ miles eating bearings. Lexus replaced cheap lines, not ruined engine. Lexus of Lansing / Spartan Toyota apparently has a service manager looking for a Lexus promotion, and Lexus Regional Rep. with significant hearing problem as they cannot hear engine knocking as a result of running the vehicle with no oil. Lexus of Lansing / Spartan Toyota was paid by Lexus to inspect oil. They refused to hear the obvious engine knock reported & recorded "Cold Start Knocking" of the engine due to bearing failure from TSB paid repair. |
