The emergency brake line or cable is holding u up it should pivot the same as the driver side

Is the solenoid defective?

Broke engine mount if its making the noise on acceleration or on deceleration I have seen this alot on Chrysler and some honda .

most vibration in front end is caused by either axle wear or bearing wear tie rods only serve for turning and steering also check front brakes for uneven wear

Sound as if one of the cylinders has an internal leak through the seals. These should be re-phasing cylinders which when both sides don't lift to max height at same time you continue to hold your handle in cab and it will continue to provide fluid to the cylinder that is lagging. Which in turn will get it back in phase with the other side. I would try this first and then if that don't work I would look into a seal kit for the cylinder which you can get from your local dealer. This is an easy fix if you have general knowledge about mechanics.

Generally you need a scan tool to monitor the motors to see if they function.Lexus has like 5 fuse blocks and a fuse for every single component. I suggest starting in the fuses to make sure they are all good, especially the two blocks directly under the dashboard.Good luck

Sounds like you may need to change the Cycling switch. It maybe misreading the pressure in your a/c

This indicates that a part of the EVAP control system is no longer functioning correctly. The EVAP system consists of many parts, including (but not limited to) the gas cap, fuel lines, carbon canister, purge valve, and other hoses. The (EVAP) emission control system prevents the escape of fuel vapors from a vehicle's fuel system. Fuel vapors are routed by hoses to a charcoal canister for storage. Later, when the engine is running a purge control valve opens allowing intake vacuum to siphon the fuel vapors into the engine. EVAP emission canister purge is controlled by a valve which allows engine vacuum to pull stored fuel vapors from fuel tank into the engine to be burned, rather than be vented to atmosphere. A vacuum switch is used to detect when flow exists. If the PCM commands purge and sees that the switch is closed (indicating no detected purge flow) P0441 is set.

Take back to Dealer,you have a warranty.

usually you can just remove the Bezel around it, but you may want to try taking out the glove compartment and getting to it from the back

No idea without a look first but the vent is opened by a vacumn controlled motor and the diaphgram could be finished like a hole in it so it doesnt work .consult a local mechanic to check it out for you

Whew. Doing electrical blind is a tough one. It can be several things. So, by process of elimination, we can find the problem. 1st off, the fuse probably blew, so replace it, then lets runs down the line. Remove inner door panel on passenger door Take your time finding all the fasteners before you pull hard and damage inner door trim panel. They have a way of cleverly hiding the screws and clips. Unplug window motor. Caution some inner door metal is sharp. Then with a continuity tester, check if you have power INTO each switch (key on) if you do, check if you have power going OUT when you activate switch, if not bad switch. Check fuse again that it's good. Next, assuming switch has power coming in and going out when activated, using same tester, check plug by window motor. Should have power to one of the wires when window switch is pushed (one wire for up, another wire for down) if not, a wire may be pinched somewhere, check door opening and inside door. If yes power at plug in when pushing switch, the window regulator (track and gearbox might be jammed or worn out) OR the motor went south(bad) causing fuse to blow. Make sure to test both switches. If new parts are out of budget, used parts work fine. Motor, regulator, or switches. More then likely the motor went out. Good luck. Oh yea, test your tester on the battery. Nothings worse than doing all that work only to find out your tester was bad from the start and gotta do it all over again. lol

Take to dealer,warranty will cover.

HeyTyrone,we need your vehicles info.,year ,make,model and engine size.What does seafoam do?

catalytic converter

possible freezing up of either condenser or evap coil have freon level checked as well a expansion valve replaced

If in fact it does take Freon, it can be an expensive recharge because this nation requires an ASE Certification to even tough Freon. Yes, that is federal law in all 50 states. You can find out by finding an auto manual on your car to determine whether it takes 134A Refridgerant or Freon. Good luck...:)

Could be your brake pads are worn down to wear it's scrapping the sensor to let you know the pads are due for a change,if you wait to late,the petal on the pads will tear up your disc,here's a link on how to replace and the brake pads you will need.Also you will need to remove some of the brake fluid in reservoir cause when you put new pads on,fluid will go back into reservoir.
