2023 Lexus RX 350 Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on a 2023 Lexus RX 350 typically signals a severe misfire that can quickly overheat and damage the catalytic converter or other engine components. Immediate attention is critical: continued driving can escalate repair costs and create safety hazards. At Nalley Lexus Roswell, we prioritize flashing-light cases and provide fast towing coordination, priority diagnostics, and clear next steps from our factory-trained technicians. Repairs covered under warranty must be completed at a certified dealership to preserve coverage. Choosing our service center often saves you money immediately and long-term by preventing collateral damage and ensuring genuine parts and correct repairs.

2023 Lexus RX 350 Check Engine Light Codes

Common codes for the 2023 Lexus RX 350 include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0300–P0304 (random or cylinder misfires), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim lean conditions), and sensor faults like P0135 (oxygen sensor). Ignoring these codes can lead to higher fuel use, failed emissions tests, damaged catalytic converters, and more expensive repairs later. For example, leaving a misfire unaddressed can destroy the catalytic converter and raise repair costs dramatically. At Nalley Lexus Roswell we provide full code interpretation, OEM parts, and estimates that emphasize immediate and long-term savings compared with repeat repairs at lesser-equipped shops.

2023 Lexus RX 350 Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2023 Lexus RX 350 is technically simple with an OBD-II tool, but a reset without fixing the underlying issue can mask faults and void warranty coverage. Our dealership resets codes only after proper diagnostics and repairs, ensuring the root cause is addressed. Using Nalley Lexus Roswell for service preserves factory warranty requirements, guarantees OEM parts, and leverages factory-trained technicians who know Lexus systems intimately. This approach often costs less than independent shops in the long run by avoiding repeat visits and protecting vehicle value.
