When the car was under warranty 2 years ago, the Lexus dealer diagnosed the parasitic leak and was to have repaired it. As it has occurred again I would prefer to go to a mechanic that has the necessary equipment and experience to resolve this parasitic leak.

So I am looking for recommendations for an auto repair service to fix my problem.

The battery was dead but the car started after being charged at my home prior to taking it to my mechanic.

I see we have the normal round of posts that have nothing to do with your question. I wish I was that bored!

So what you should be doing is take that information , I assume you keep your records, to a Lexus dealer like Wesley Chapel and tell them that it was just diagnosed to have the same leak, you'd like them to recheck their work.

Otherwise you're just using different tools to dig a larger hole.
