[@janicesylvester5929]

Hi why the car battery dies if you don't drive it

[@outthere2]

@@janicesylvester5929 Hi Janice, I know you were probably hoping for a reply from Scotty, but I will give you a reply. Most batteries will die when left for a while due to a parasitic drain. There is also drainage due to colder temperatures. Where my car was having difficulty, was the aftermarket remote starter that the previous owner installed. Once it was disconnected and disabled my battery life returned to normal. I still can't leave it for very long periods of time, because there are so many systems on modern cars that need power to maintain their function. There are no less than 49 ECU's on a new Lexus RX350. Those draw power at a trickle, but over time, your battery will drain to a point of a no start condition. Hope this helps. Kindest Regards, Dan

[@janicesylvester5929]

True story: because of Scotty's channel, as well the advice of as a few other KZbinrs i follow, we have ALL Toyota products; bought them all used, too! 5 years ago I bought my wife an '05 Highlander (w/80k miles on the clock!) that she uses to commute 5 miles each day to work and we usually take it on long road trips, and I just bought myself an '09 Lexus IS250 (w/100k miles on it) about 5 months ago. Took the Highlander in for an oil change recently and had the mechanic check everything on the truck; no problems!! All I've done is change the oil, a new battery (the sun KILLS batteries here in AZ; you have to replace them every 2-2.5 years), put new tires on the thing, and basic maintenance (air filters, etc) and its been a great car. Took the Lexus in for an oil change and got a big "thumbs up" from my mechanic; the previous owner kept taking the car to the dealership and had things replaced as recommended by the dealer (new struts, new rotors, and all of the other expensive things that are a rip-off IMO) so I basically have a fairly new car! AVOID USED EUROPEAN CARS, my friends! I've owned Benz's, Bimmers, Jaguars, and VW's over the last 20 years and only one of them was close to being as dependable as our Toyota's. (We had an 03 MB M350 for several years before we had an accident in that car, otherwise I'd have kept it.) Do your research, listen to Scotty and others, and your car ownership experience will be blissful! Thanks, Scotty!

Aquaman Dude nice. I traded my ford into the Toyota dealership. Ahaha

[@cristobalcardona5592]

Not really, they usually come with something that has to be replaced even if only the battery! If new just put gas and if it breaks down or if something is bad get it fixed for free. I bough an used ES 350 2008 I've spent so far $700 with no check engine light on and passing emissions! One owner car etc! It came with rubber vvti line, bad cv joint rubber, bad radiator cap, bad leaky gas cap(small leak), weak battery bad side speakers and cabin filter I could had save the money on this maintenance and many come with 50,000 free maintenance at least where I would buy it.

Just bought mine from Beverly Hills Lexus for $14k. 2008 RX400h hybrid. It was a trade in by an old lady. Perfect condition with on 60k miles on the odometer. Love it

[@benpitts9753]

Got a used 2004 RX330 several years ago .. approaching 250k miles runs like a champ. Problem with the catalytic converter though. Costs about 600 to repair but all in all a great vehicle.

[@kellingtonlink956]

Your timing was perfect. I was just (2 days ago) looking at replacing my wife’s 2012 VW with something. I was considering a 2010 RX350 with 155,ooo km’s. It wasn’t exactly cheap, but I feel way more confident about these RX’s after watching today’s video. Thanks Scotty!

[@0dallas]

Double check the steering rack! those are prone to leak on the 2010s. and if you replace it or it was replaced with an aftermarket one, you'll be replacing it in the future. otherwise bullet proof!!

[@cblackmail]

Definitely use OEM Lexus parts. You will be glad.

[@BigChubbyGuy]

Just bought a 2009 for my wife about 6 months ago and we are loving it! It’s everything Scotty said it is in the video. I avoided the 2007s because some of them have an oil drop from the timing chain cover that is harmless but costs a lot to fix.

[@hedga001]

[@jeffevrard6353]

Thanks for the video Scotty. I actually did some research and traded in my 2013 Subaru Forester for a 2009 Lexus RX 350. Took a tiny hit on the tech but man what a jump in quality, ride and road noise. Much nicer car. Another bonus is that this model shares parts with the GS, so there are lots of spare parts out there. My alternator went out and I bought a salvaged OEM GS alternator for $60. Whole repair cost me under $300.

[@beefen7921]

i did the same.. traded my '11 Forester 2.5x base manual (141kishh miles) to a 2007 RX350 with 87k and NEVER looked back!.. these cars are solid!.. Can't even compare Subies to it.

@@503945158 Regular maintenance and fluid changes. Our biggest issue (though its not something I'm too worried about given the fact that the car was given to us for free) is that its jerky when applying throttle after decelerating. I'm thinking its fuel injection related as the transmission fluid looks great.

[@machinist7230]

@@eleanormassaro5195 the Explorer and the Durango arent crossovers, they're actual SUVs - full frame, 4wd instead of awd, rwd instead of fwd on road etc. Both are considered midsized SUVs, compared to something like my 3/4 ton Suburban, which is much bigger, heavier (approx 6000 lbs) with a much highrr towing capacity(10k lbs). Honestly though, the RX350 is much better suited to the role of "daily driver, including snow days," that can seat 4 adults comfortably) than my junior "Canyonero" - better mpg, easier to find parking places etc.
