GS Hybrid Uneven Idle

I'm having an issue with my 2013 Lexus GS hybrid. It has 228951 km on it. The engine seems to be idling unevenly, and the error memory shows an error. I think it's a defective engine mount, maybe a faulty cable or plug connection.

Hey! I had something similar with my GS! Is it a really rough idle, almost like the engine's gonna stall? I was getting some weird vibrations too. I was thinking it was a failed mount. Did you check the mounting bracket for cracks or anything?

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, the idling is quite rough, and the vibrations are noticeable. I checked the mounting bracket visually but didn't see any obvious cracks. Do you remember if the error code you got pointed specifically to a motor mount or something else?

You know what, I don't remember the exact code. But the mech told me it was the mount. Honestly, it's probably best to just get it checked out at a workshop. They can diagnose it properly and tell you for sure.

Thanks for sharing your experience; it's been helpful. I took it to a local workshop, and the estimate is 95€ to replace the defective cable or plug connection.
