INSPECTION DETAILS - J. ROAD TEST
A comprehensive road test is vital in order to ensure that a perfect automobile is delivered to a Lexus
customer. We recommend that you map out a specific road test course that includes a variety of road
conditions including stop and go, highway speed and rough road surfaces. This will help you check for
squeaks, rattles, drifts, pulls and a variety of other conditions that must be corrected prior to delivery.
NOTE:
Make sure protective covers are in place on the seats and carpet prior to starting the road test.
FILL UP FUEL TANK
Fill the fuel tank to the "FULL" level with unleaded fuel that
has a Research Octane No. 91 (Octane Rating 96) or
higher. Up to E15 gasoline only.
ENGINE TRANSMISSION OPERATION
a) Check that the engine will not start if the shift lever is in
any other range except for "P" or "N" position.
b) Check that the shift lever cannot be moved from the "P"
position without depressing the brake pedal.
c) Check for smooth up-shift and down-shift operation over
a broad range of driving conditions.
d) Check for smooth up-shift and down-shift operation
when the shift lever is in the "S" range.
• Check that the transmission shifts up when the shift
lever is moved front.
• Check that the transmission shifts down when the shift
lever is moved back.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
With the "ENGINE" switch in the ACCESSORY or "IG-ON"
