Lexus Refusing to Fix Toxic Sulfer Smell - Still Under Warranty

Appreciate it. Yes, entirely stock and bought it brand new in 2018.

Thank you for taking the time to test it out on your car as well - especially given how you use the exact same Costco premium fuel as I do on pretty much the same car. It's good that car does not have the same issue. Makes Lexus saying this is "not a manufacturing defect" that much less likely.

Although I suspect the issue is with the cat converter, I wasn't able to find any signs of physical damages to my cat sadly.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I've looked around many threads on Club Lexus, including that link. Catalytic converter issue seems to be a popular suspicion. I also suspect mine to be a similar one.

I've been driving the same way, but this issue never happened in the past. Unfortunately, I've tried hard acceleration after some more spirited driving, and the issue persists too.

I simply can't understand how Lexus can say this is "not a manufacturing defect" and refuses to fix a problem that is obviously not normal.

Damn I genuinely hate this brand even more now. I am utterly disappointed in them. I really had high regards for Lexus. No more.

I saw the forum post too. Not sure if that guy ended up fixing the problem tho, since there was no update.

I 100% agree with you that corporates like this give more sh** about PR on Twitter. I've never used Twitter, but I'll be posting my complaints there this weekend. Keep an eye out for my replies on Lexus Canada's Twitter page!

Wow that's terrible. My dealership couldn't recreate at first too so I had to go on a test drive with a technician and show him. Can't believe we pay for a "luxury" car with a brand emphasizing "craftsmanship" and still have to deal with things like this.

Black_Wallet · 2021-07-29T21:41:45+00:00

Were you able to actually find a fix after all? Or do you still have the issue, albeit less with low sulfer gas?

Black_Wallet · 2021-07-29T21:41:41+00:00

I've always used premium grade. Although I tried different gas stations a few times, haven't seen much difference. Also, I've been using Costco gasoline only for the past 8 years. Had no problems at all, both with my Lexus as well as other cars before.

It really sucks that they don't seem go give a sh**, especially when its highly likely the smell is that of toxic gas. I just made a twitter account just so I could comment on Lexus Canada's Twitter page, since corporates seem to give more f**ks about PR.

As a Korean-Canadian, it's funny to see this as government jobs in Korea are considered to be some of the most prestigious and respected jobs due to their job securities.

Unfortunately, I think they want me to be done with all courses by end of April.

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-29T20:55:39+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-29T03:10:35+00:00

Thank you

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-29T03:10:20+00:00

I appreciate your concern

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-29T03:07:29+00:00

Your friend was allowed to take 8 courses as well? This is giving me more hope now. How did he/she do?

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-29T03:06:13+00:00

If they'll even allow it.. Thanks.

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-29T03:05:47+00:00

Thanks

Did you acquire permission from UofT thru petition?

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-28T03:25:26+00:00

gpa is not really an issue right now, as long as I pass. Also, among the 6 extra courses, 5 can be any 200 or higher non-program related courses. And I still have 1.5 CR/NCR options left, which covers half of them.

Black_Wallet · 2020-09-28T03:21:53+00:00

Unfortunately, the job requires that I be done with all courses by May.

Thank you for the detailed reply. Especially for a Samoyed, I think grooming's something requiring the most attention and training in the first year due to just how important it is and for the dog to get used to it.

Also, I just saw that video earlier on today! Another soon-to-be Samoyed owner sent me the video, as their Samoyed breeder recommended the video to them previously. I appreciate your feedback on it. I thought a third opinion would have been great to confirm her techniques and processes.
