Good evening,

Yes, you can replace it with used but you are taking a chance if the used one is no good.

I attached a picture of one available from rockauto. It is pricey but so are all the parts for a Lexus.

I sent you a link for the throttle body. The price was around $400.00.

A new one from Lexus is around $700.00 to $800.00.

I would call around your area and see if someone can help you.

I'm going to get a diagnostic on it and make sure that what wrong and go from there. May have to set up a month. I just don't want anybody working one guy that work on Lexus say he been working on Lexus and he have never had to replace this part on Lexus. He suggested I get a diagnostic before I do any thing. Thank you again
