Regular maintenance is essential to
obtaining the highest level of
performance, safety and reliability
from your Lexus. It can also enhance
your vehicle’s resale value. This section
of the
Warranty and Services Guide is
designed to help you make sure your
vehicle receives proper and timely
maintenance. It includes factory-
recommended maintenance guidelines
as well as logs in which to document
your vehicle’s maintenance history.
In addition to scheduled mainte-
nance, your Lexus requires ongoing
general maintenance such as fluid
checks and visual inspections. These
procedures are listed on pages
42–43 of this booklet and described
in detail in the “Maintenance”
section of the
Owner’s Manual .
it is especially important to check
your vehicle’s engine oil once a
month and to regularly replace
the engine oil and oil filter. Failure
to do so can cause oil starvation
and/or oil gelling, which can
result in severe damage to your
vehicle and require costly repairs
that are not covered by the new
vehicle Limited Warranty.
With proper maintenance and
care, your vehicle will last longer
and deliver more dependable,
economical performance. Follow
this booklet’s recommendations
and you’ll enjoy maximum reliability
and peace of mind from your
Lexus for many years to come.
