Your fuel pump is responsible for supplying the engine with the fuel it needs to run. When your fuel pump is failing or getting bad, these signs come by easily:

1. Whining noise from the fuel tank: A loud whining is the major sign that your fuel pump is failing. When it is worn out or old, the fuel pump produce a more prominent howl while running. Be observant.

2. Difficulty starting: A weak fuel pump can still pump fuel, but the vehicle will experience difficulty starting due to lack of pressure. It may cause more cranks to start than normal.

3. Engine sputtering: Another sure indicator is a sputtering engine. If you drive often at high speed and you notice the engine sputter suddenly before returning to normal operation, that may be issues with the fuel pump.

4. Stalling at high temperatures: Stalling can happen for varied reasons but when a rising car temperature is paired with it, there's a need to check/replace the fuel pump.

5. Car Surging: Irregular resistance inside the fuel pump motor can cause your vehicle to feel like the gas pedal has been used. If this happens often, you may need to check your fuel pump

6. Car will not start: If the fuel pump fails completely to the engine being unable to run, the vehicle will not start although it may crank when the key is turned.

To properly ascertain the problem of your car, we recommend you get it checked immediately.

It's a weekend, let's fix that for you..😊

Your alternator charges the car’s battery and powers the entire electrical system of the car.

Once it goes bad, the entire electrical system of your car shuts down.
In other to avoid such occurrences here are some signs to look out for .

1. The Battery Warning Light
If you have checked all the warning lights on your dashboard while the ignition is on but your car’s engine is not running, you should notice a warning light with a car battery icon.

2. The Headlights Are Dim Or Flickering
The more power your headlights receive, the brighter your headlights will be. But if the alternator is failing, the voltage to your headlights will drop and they will become dimmer. When you notice your headlights flickering, that’s coming from an unstable voltage coming from the alternator.

For cars with LED headlights so you will not notice on time and the downside is the lights could go off completely before you even realize it!

3. Car Starting Problems
If the alternator is going out, it might not charge every time you drive. At some point, your car will drain more power than it is charging. Eventually, your car will not turn over.

If you think your car feels tired every time you start it, it could be an issue with your alternator.

4. Noises Coming From The Engine Bay
The alternator consists of bearings and other spinning electronic parts. If your alternator has been damaged, you could hear squealing or banging sounds coming from it.

Most times, a bad bearing inside the generator which will cause a scratching sound. In cases like this, you should contact a professional mechanic to help you out.

5. Flat Car Battery
If you are charging your car’s battery regularly but the battery is continually draining even if it’s in good condition, more than likely the culprit is your alternator.

6. Other Electronic Failures
Low voltage caused by a bad alternator can cause many strange issues both inside and outside your car. If you think something strange is going on with your car, it’s a really good idea to check the alternator or get someone to help you out.

As round off on the brand. Below, are the 3 most common issues with your Lexus cars you should have in mind when buying one.

OIL LEAKS
Like many vehicles, a commonly reported problem with Lexus vehicles is oil leaks. Most Lexus owners complain about this problem occurring as early as 8,000 miles into the vehicle's life. Oil leaks can be costly to repair. However, if you regularly service your car (and its gaskets), you may be able to prevent this issue altogether.

WATER LEAKING
Another common problem with Lexus vehicles is water leaking into the cabin of the car. This occurs mainly due to defects or damages around the sunroof or moonroof area. While it doesn't happen in all Lexus vehicles, it can be expected and often occurs around the 20,000 to 30,000-mile mark.

BRAKES
With time your brakes will wear out. And the friction present in your brake system when you step on the brake pedal will be a lot more intense than you may think. The harder you are on your brakes, the sooner your pads and rotors will wear out.

Thankfully, brake repairs are relatively straightforward, so if you hear any grinding or scraping noises or the pedal feels softer than usual, please take it to a mechanic right away!

, our team of experts can help keep your Lexus in top-tier condition with preventative maintenance services.

This weekend, check for these things in your car.
Check the fluid levels of the engine oil, brakes, clutch, power steering and auto transmission fluids.

Windscreen washer: Even though some cars have two reservoirs. It is advisable that you use washer fluid only.
Ensure all lights are working from the headlights, brake lights to indicators.

Inspect your tyres for pressure, tread, wear and tear such as cuts or bulges.The spare should not be left out.

If you notice signs you can't explain, send us a dm right away.

A new week is just around the corner. Don't be caught unaware😎✌️

Thinking of getting a Lexus pretty soon?
Get in here and skim through this.

1. 2007 Lexus ES 350
Years 2007 and 2008 were simply terrible for Toyota's luxury division. The 2007 ES 350 has its all melting dashboards and other interior parts that were sub-par, but the 2008 model for the ES 350 was worse. The 2008 model even had deteriorating steering wheel material alongside its melting dashboards, and an oil-leaking engine made things so much worse for the brand and the ES 350.
Moreso, some customers reported blown engine heads, which made the 2008 model a lot costlier to report, making it, by far, the worst ES 350 from Lexus. It even came with faulty electronics which inadvertently made the moon roof and the windows open by themselves.

2. 2007 Lexus LS 460:
The 2007 LS 460 reported melting dashboards and armrests! In fact, even the door panels melted in the car, which led to huge numbers of recalls for the car. To make matters worse, the car also had a faulty brake actuator, which failed a lot of customers, making the 2007 LS 460 a car Lexus wants to forget.

3: 2009 Lexus RX 350: This mid-size SUV suffered from massive oil leaks and loss of oil pressure, and a steering rack leak made matters worse.
These repairs were quite costly as well, which makes the 2009 Lexus RX 350 the car's worst model year, followed closely behind by 2007. Even the transmission is faulty for this one, and thus, the 2009 RX 350 is simply a bad vehicle, and best left avoided and forgotten.

4. 2006 Lexus GX 470:
A clunky engine was the first of the SUV's problems, which were further enhanced by a problematic drivetrain that left thousands of customers with a bad taste in their mouths. Thus, the 2006 GX 470 is one of the worst-rated Lexus cars when it came to reliability and long-term usage.

5. 2007 Lexus IS 250:
The IS 250, as good a car as it is today, had problematic interior accessories in 2007, the first of which, unsurprisingly, was the melting dashboards and interior materials. Electrical failures were pretty frequent in the car as well, which led to the 2007 Lexus IS 250 becoming the worst of IS 250 in the car's entire model year history.

Yes, the Lexus brand is owned by the Toyota Motor Corporation, which is headquartered in Japan.

In many ways, however, the luxury vehicle brand operates independently from the Toyota and has since grown on its own with it's range of sleek designs that has since rocked the car market.
