Problem overview

Some Lexus GX460 owners report experiencing issues related to the secondary air pump, such as illuminated dashboard lights indicating a problem, which can lead to sluggish acceleration and decreased performance. These symptoms often arise from a clogged secondary air pump, a critical component of the vehicle's emissions control system. Owners may notice the Check Engine Light turning on, and in severe cases, the vehicle may enter limp mode, further impacting performance. Additionally, a clogged secondary air pump can result in higher emissions and potential failure to pass emissions tests. It is crucial for owners to address these issues promptly to ensure the vehicle operates efficiently and remains compliant with emissions standards. Consulting a qualified technician for inspection and repair is recommended if these symptoms occur.
