Engine just blew (2 Viewers)

I’m a 08/2024 build date, 51k miles and looks like my engine just took a dump. Rip…

That's a big bummer! My '26 OT+ is coming in next month. I specifically waited to order this truck in the hopes that they get the engine issue resolved. However, I'm still hearing of people having issues on 25's and 26's. Please keep us updated on the findings and ultimate resolution.

Not that it matters entirely, but how frequently did you change oil?

Did you have a tune or aftermarket HP/Torque increase?

Did a change at 100 miles, 1k miles, and every 5k. Waiting on a tow, so just keeping myself busy

Damn...I had the similar intentions with mine. Plan on draining at 500, 1500 and every 4-5K after. Please update when you know more. Thank you!

Recently went back to stock for a long roadtrip, but i’ve had one for 10k miles. Never pushed it hard.

Dang, sucks. Sorry to hear this. Please keep us informed.

Oh Man...sorry to hear that.....When you are able to, can you let us know exactly what happened? Were you just driving and lost power, or did something literally blow up?

Damn!!! And 51K miles already? I thought I had high miles at about 33k.

Crusing on the highway, check engine light popped with reduced power message/limp mode. Stopped and engine was vibrating like crazy.

That's just out of standard warranty. I hope Lexus does the right thing.

I believe the power train warranty is 6 years or 70,000 miles.

At signing, the dealer convinced me on the 120k extended, thankful for that upsell now.

The silver lining is you get a new engine at 51k - basically a new car again.
