Built around the 2015 GX 460 as Lexus released it, this service and repair manual is tied to your exact year, engine and trim, so the clearances, torque values and service intervals it gives for the 4.6L V8 (1UR-FE) are the ones published for this truck rather than figures carried over from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2015 GX 460. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two of them cover the passenger-side frontal air bag inflator module: an inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death. The second of those two applies to vehicles whose frontal air bag inflators had already been replaced under a prior recall using inflators of the same design, and those replacement inflators may explode as well. The third covers the fuel pump in the gasoline delivery system: if the fuel pump fails, the engine can stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 11 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are on record. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind the supplemental restraint system and the fuel delivery system are here.
From verifying an air bag inflator repair to tracing a stall back to fuel delivery or working through a scheduled service on the 1UR-FE, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2015 GX 460.
