Because this 2011 Lexus LX 570 service and repair manual is keyed to one year, one engine and one trim, the specifications and torque values in it are the ones Lexus published for the 5.7L V8 (3UR-FE) in 2011, not figures carried across from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2011 LX 570. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two of them concern the passenger-side frontal air bag inflator module. In the first, the seat belt tension sensor wire harness may break over time and deactivate the front passenger air bag, the knee air bag and the passenger seat-mounted side air bag, and in the event of a crash deactivated air bags can increase the risk of injury. In the second, the vehicle may be equipped with an incorrect driver or front passenger air bag that may not deploy as intended in a crash, leaving it out of compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208, Occupant Crash Protection. The third covers the accelerator pedal, which can get stuck in the wide open position after being trapped by an unsecured or incompatible driver's floor mat; a stuck open pedal may result in very high vehicle speeds and make the vehicle difficult to stop, which could cause a crash, serious injury or death. Owners have filed one complaint for the year and Lexus has issued 25 technical service bulletins. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From tracing an air bag circuit to a pedal and floor mat inspection or a scheduled service on the 5.7L V8, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2011 LX 570.
