Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 2GR-FE timing chain require periodic replacement on the XV40 ES 350?
The 2GR-FE uses a timing chain rather than a belt, so there is no fixed replacement interval. However, high-mileage 2006–2009 ES 350 engines are known to develop chain tensioner rattle, particularly at cold start. This manual covers full tensioner inspection, chain slack measurement, and replacement procedures with factory torque values.
Does this manual cover the Toyota Camry XV40 as well, since it shares the same platform?
This manual is specific to the Lexus ES 350 XV40. While the ES 350 shares its underpinnings with the Toyota Camry XV40, the Lexus variant has unique trim, wiring schematics, and electronic systems—including the Smart Key system and optional Mark Levinson audio—all of which are fully documented here.
Are the complete wiring diagrams for the Smart Key and navigation systems included?
Yes. The electrical section contains full schematic coverage for the Smart Key entry and start system, navigation unit, Mark Levinson premium audio, dual-zone climate control, and all body electrical circuits. Each diagram includes wire colors, connector pinouts, splice points, and ground references.

The manual is delivered as a PDF file. After purchase you receive an instant download link with no shipping wait.
