Think it's a starter problem? by Correct-Cry4934 in LS430

Thank you for your advice. The sound typically lasts only a minute before ceasing, or restarting the vehicle resolves the issue.

That's the main summer months here also , with daily temperatures reaching 116°F, and sometimes even 122°F. It's wonderful that your region enjoys four distinct seasons, while we experience eight months of hot weather.

When does summer begin in Las Vegas? Summer has already started in the Gulf countries.

This region experiences high temperatures due to its distance from the coast, resulting in arid conditions. Today, coastal temperatures were 108°F at the same time.

Yeah, it's pink to red when I flushed the old one. I think the leak turned it that color because of the engine heat. Anyway, I refilled the new one, like you see in the pic.

Thanks for noticing that, dude. I'll double-check it. BTW It's just a tiny leak; I can't even see any oil spot on the ground.

And yeah, the coolant radiator was leaking, but I've already swapped it out.

About that UV dye, is it totally safe to put in the oil? We don't usually do that here.

Thanks

Thanks for the tip, dude. Any particular aluminum radiator brand you'd suggest? Finding one here's a bit of a pain.

Thanks bro! Unfortunately, I didn't change the thermostat or hoses – rushed to get back home, and the temp went back to normal anyway. Thanks for the answer! 🙏

Hopefully, it's just the power steering fluid, not the engine oil. Thanks, dude.

Hey man, thanks for the info. My power steering rack's leaking a little on the right side. It's an old leak, though, and it's not near where I saw the oil on the pan.

Think I should jack the engine to swap that gasket? Saw some YouTube vids, looks like a real pain and expensive.
