Thanks for that, will give the bg244 a try. Anyone got a good link that shows how to clean the EGR valve, in the IS220d, step by step, haven't done an EGR valve before. Thanks!

Hi, looking for some opinions on this. Have 2008 IS220d sport, 20K miles on clock. About 1 year ago car developed a rough start (from cold start only), was brought back to dealership who said that this was a known problem and that Lexus had issued a kit to fix the problem. Kit was fitted, no charge, and car was fine until recently, as problem has returned. The car never fails to start, but strugles to fire, and is not a battery problem. Also, lately the idle has changed. Was always very quiet car, but now when sitting in traffic, can clearly hear the engine idling inside the car, and sometimes the idle has a loud 'crack' to it, if you know what I mean. There are no performance issues, car is driving/accelerating normally, no smoke and not burning oil. Car was recently serviced and had no improvement on these issues. The dealership insists it is a problem with 'bad fuel' which I don't accept. Any ideas, any help appreciated? Thanks, PCOCP.

Just saying hello, I'm new to the forum and after looking around for a while I can see I will be making good use of the info available here. Driving 2008 IS220d Sport, and love it. Take it easy!
