engine light break pad sensor

[lexico]

Hi I bought a used lexus is250 2008 in UK

1.)

If when I turn car on without putting engine on engine light shows as well as Battery light sign and nothing else, does there mean something is wrong.

I don't think these are there with engine on .

 

2.) Does the transmission automatic ever have problems as this and timing chain are hidden.

Hi J and welcome to the LOC.

Normally there should be no warning lights illuminated when the engine is running, with just the ignition on the Battery light will be on and then go out when the engine is started same with the check engine light.

The airbag light on the top of the right side of the instrument cluster should come on then go out after a few seconds.

You also mention the brake warning light is this on or off when the engine is running?
 

The transmissions rarely have problems and I’ve never heard of a timing chain failure on these engines with regular servicing of oil and filter.

You can download the owner’s manual via the link below

Also be aware that you need to use Super Unleaded petrol in this car because of the type of fuel injection system.

Any other questions feel free to ask.

Ok thanks

I notice full services don't include brake fluid change just top up and no auto trans fluid change? Does that ever need to be done
