What to do when your Lexus is hesitating?

Why does my Lexus IS 250 not start?
It is possible that over time, the inner walls of the throttle body accumulate dirt and grime, blocking proper airflow.

Remove plastic engine cover.

(You may have to reset the clock and your radio preset buttons after reconnecting.) Try resetting your ECU and then drive kinda hard as much as you can for about 200 miles.
