2006-2007-2008 Lexus IS 350

On certain vehicles, the use of selected ethanol fuels may cause the aluminum fuel rails to corrode. This could result in plugged fuel injectors, causing a rough engine idle and/or the illumination of the engine warning lamp. Corrosion may also cause a pinhole to develop on the fuel rail, resulting in fuel leakage. Dealers will replace the fuel rails.
It's interesting that the LSh isn't in there... unless it uses it different fuel rail than its siblings.
