Every torque figure, clearance and diagnostic routine in this 2006 Lexus GS 300 service and repair manual is tied to this exact year, engine and drivetrain, covering the 3.0L V6 (3GR-FSE) as Lexus built it for 2006 rather than a value carried over from a neighboring year of the GS line.

Known issues on the 2006 GS 300. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the gasoline fuel delivery hoses, lines, piping and fittings: due to anti-corrosion plating remnants, fuel may leak from where the fuel pressure sensor is attached to the fuel delivery pipe, and a fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire. The second covers the accelerator pedal on certain all-wheel-drive cars, where a plastic pad embedded in the floor carpet may interfere with the operation of the accelerator pedal: the pedal could temporarily become stuck in a partially depressed position rather than return to the idle position, which may result in unintended and sustained vehicle speeds and make it difficult to stop, increasing the risk of a crash. No owner complaints and no technical service bulletins are recorded for this year. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind both of those systems are here.
From pressure-testing the fuel delivery line to checking pedal return and floor clearance or working a scheduled service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2006 GS 300.
