Lexus ES 350 Maintenance Schedule

The first maintenance check for your Lexus ES 350 should occur at 5,000 miles or every six months, whichever comes first. This service includes a tire rotation and brake inspection. A regular tire rotation helps promote even wear, prolonging the life of your tires and improving overall vehicle handling. At the same time, a brake inspection ensures your brakes are in top condition to maintain safety.

Essential fluids such as engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid are also checked and topped off. Finally, wiper blades, lights, and other exterior features are thoroughly inspected.

The 10,000-mile mark introduces the following additional checks and services to keep your Lexus ES 350 in prime condition.

• Oil and filter change
• Cabin air filter replacement
• Comprehensive inspection

Fresh engine oil and a clean oil filter are vital for protecting the engine from wear and maintaining fuel efficiency. Replacing the cabin air filter ensures clean air circulation within the vehicle, enhancing passenger comfort. This visit also includes a more detailed inspection of the vehicle's braking system, steering components, and suspension to ensure everything functions properly.

When your Lexus ES 350 reaches 15,000 miles on the odometer, the maintenance focus shifts to deeper inspections and replacements. Brake fluid replacement, where old brake fluid is replaced, is essential to maintaining effective braking performance. There's also a coolant inspection to ensure the system functions appropriately to help prevent the engine from overheating. Additional inspections include the exhaust system and driveshafts, ensuring all components are in good working order.

The battery is also tested to ensure it holds a charge and performs well.

The 20,000-mile service is crucial for maintaining the smooth operation of your Lexus ES 350.

A tire rotation and inspection help maintain even wear and extend tire life, and an exhaust system inspection ensures that there are no leaks or damage, which can affect engine performance and emissions.

A steering and suspension check also ensures these components function correctly, contributing to a smooth and safe ride.

As your Lexus ES 350 reaches 25,000 miles, the focus is on maintaining interior and exterior components. It will be time to replace the engine filter, as a new engine air filter ensures optimal airflow to the engine, improving performance and fuel efficiency. Drive belts are also checked for wear and tear, which is crucial for adequately functioning various engine components.

The 30,000-mile service is a comprehensive checkup to keep your Lexus ES 350 running like new. Below are some of the procedures you can expect during this visit.
