2017 Lexus LX Diesel Tire Pressure Issue and Troubleshooting Experiences

Hey there! I'm no pro mechanic, but I do have some experience tinkering around with cars. I had a similar issue with my 2015 Lexus RX Hybrid. Reckon it could be a faulty tire pressure sensor giving off incorrect readings. I had to visit my local garage for a quick diagnostic test which set me back by 625 Euro. It turned out to be a sensor defect. By any chance, do you have the specific model and other details of your Lexus? It would help us get a clear picture to better assist you. Cheers!

Hey there! Thanks for the response. My ride is a Lexus LX 2017 and she's diesel. Her odometer is reading at 104395 km and was last serviced about a month ago. I’m guessing it might well be the sensor now considering your experience with your 2015 RX. Guess it's time I made a visit to the mechanic myself. Thanks for the advice! Cheers!

You're welcome! Yep, your 2017 Lexux LX Diesel might be having the same sensor issue. Just like what happened to my 2015 RX. The symptoms are seemingly identical. Alas, these tech gadgets can get wonky at times! Good call on planning a visit to your mechanic. Just ensure they do their proper job diagnosing the real problem (they might try and sell you a new set of tires if you aren't too careful!). If they confirm the issue with the sensor, you'll probably looking at around the same costs like mine (625 Euro). A good thing in all this - it's a relatively easy fix. Happy cruising and let us know how it goes. Safe travels!

Cheers for the heads-up! I was afraid they might sell me on a new set of tires, so I'll certainly keep an eye out for that. Hard-earned money needs careful spending after all, doesn't it? Off to the mechanic I go then, hoping for the best. Will circle back here to let you know how it all panned out! Thanks again for sharing your experience and your advice. Safe cruising to you too! Take care!
