2017 Lexus GX 460 Service and Repair Manual

Fitment is what separates this 2017 Lexus GX 460 service and repair manual from a generic one: it is tied to this model year, to the 4.6L V8 (1UR-FE) under the hood and to the trim you actually own, so the specification you read is the one Lexus published for this truck rather than a close approximation carried over from an adjacent year.

Known issues on the 2017 GX 460. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year, and all three land on the same component: the frontal passenger-side air bag inflator module. Two of them cover inflators that may explode, where an inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death; the earlier of the pair reaches vehicles sold, or ever registered, in the states and territories Toyota groups as Zone A, while the later one reaches vehicles whose driver or passenger frontal air bag inflators had previously been replaced under a prior recall using inflators of the same design. The third covers a single 2017 GX 460, the one manufactured November 16, 2016, fitted with a Takata PSPI-LD front passenger air bag inflator that may have been manufactured without ignition booster tablets; the improper inflation of the passenger air bag may increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash. Owners have filed 14 complaints for the year. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind that system are here.

Whether you are verifying that an inflator replacement was carried out correctly or working through a scheduled service on the 4.6L V8, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for this 2017 GX 460.
