Hi Victor, thanks for the video. for the 2020 NX 300, how often do you need to flush or change coolant fluid in your opinion? Thank you.

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

@@victorliu5665 hi, I believe it is due at first 100K miles and then every 50K miles thereafter, but you can confirm on the Lexus website under Maintenance tab for your particular model.

@ hi, I’m pretty sure the spark plugs are due for replacement every 40K miles, that’s what we did at the dealership. They are super easy to replace and quite affordable if you do it yourself kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2PVhZykepuSb9ksi=ywHvncNFbaNNDwVu

Yes, all NX models use electric power steering. No power steering fluid.

[@nativealien_14]

My 2017 gave me a dashboard message stating that the power steering is low. You just said you can’t check that level because it’s electric power steering reservoir…. So what’s going on? Thanks!

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

@@nativealien_14 the message would say something like “power steering power low” and has to do with the electric power supplied to the power steering system. Could be a symptom of a weak battery or some other electrical issue.

[@Texasbird026]

Hi Viktor, new subscriber here. I need to top off the radiator coolant on my 2015 NX200T (92K). The cold level has dropped just above the lower hose. I have two questions, should I buy coolant from dealer to ensure I have same mixture or can I use after market? Dealer is twice the cost. I will probably stick with dealer to make sure It is the same chemistry coolant. I appear to have a slow leak. Can you do a video on common places to look for leak? Fox example, can you show us how to look for the water pump weep hole if it has one? Also, can you provide video how to pressure up system so we can simulate hot conditions? I am a little nervous doing this, I don't want to over pressure, I think a shop did this to me on one of our other cars and I ended up with an intake manifold leak. Thanks for the videos. I have just started watching your playlist.

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

I would use Toyota coolant only. One common leak area on those is the water pump. I can make a video on its replacement if I get a chance one day. Thanks for watching!

[@Texasbird026]

@@Viktor_G_Automotive Thanks for the quick response.

[@Texasbird026]

@@Viktor_G_Automotive Is the AISIN ACT002 essentially the pink Toyota coolant? I can get this from Rock Auto for $13 + $10 shipping. I have heard AISIN makes parts for Toyota. Do they make this coolant for Toyota? I can get this without even leaving the house. AISIN would be my choice of water pump if I have to go down that road.

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

@@Texasbird026 AISIN may make Toyota coolant, but I do not know that with 100% certainty. They do make a lot of Toyota water pumps, transmissions etc. though, so I trust the AISIN brand. I personally use Toyota coolant since it pretty affordable and you are guaranteed a quality product.

I’m missing a small cap next to we’re you twist off the other cap I notice you are missing both. Does it matter ?

Hi, I am not sure what cap you are referring to, but the vehicle in this video was almost brand new, it was not missing anything.

@@Viktor_G_Automotive it’s like a cap for the tires we’re you add air. I looked up other videos and they also don’t have it.

[@soccerbrett1]

Does the 2017 NX200t have a throttle body/plate? I can't figure out where it would be on my wife's NX and, if there is one, would love to see a video on how to access/clean it. If it isn't a viable task for you to do in the near future, no worries. Thanks Viktor!

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

Yes, it has a throttle body/plate, located between the engine and the firewall, you can’t really see it from the top. If I get my hands on an NX sometime in the future, I’ll try to make the video, but don’t know what the timeframe on that would be.

[@Viktor_G_Automotive]

There is no reservoir or fluid, but there is a power steering system which is electric. It would need to be diagnosed based on the specific fault code or message that you are getting.
