Problem overview

Some Lexus NX200t owners report experiencing a no crank issue following overheating, which could indicate serious underlying problems such as a blown head gasket or a malfunctioning cooling system. These overheating consequences can lead to severe damage, including warped cylinder heads and cracked engine blocks. Additionally, a blown head gasket is noted as a critical issue that necessitates immediate attention and a complex repair process. Some owners also find that the no crank condition may stem from other factors like a weak battery, alternator issues, or a failed starter, with a weak battery being a common cause of clicking noises and failure to start. Furthermore, those who have purchased gaskets for repairs emphasize the importance of ensuring the correct gaskets are used and properly installed to maintain engine and cooling system functionality. It is advisable for owners to address these issues promptly or consult a professional mechanic for effective resolution.
