Default Orange County Mechanic

Fairly New Lexus IS350 Owner. Looking for a quality shop in Orange County (near Mission Viejo) that I can take car for scheduled maintenance. I'm up for my 60k service and dealer wants $1100. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I remember my 60k it was around 1400 at Longo, I go to Luxury Motorworks but that is in Los Angeles County off the 210, but they give you a loaner car.

Good luck on finding a place.

Wow... I had no idea that a 60k mile service was that expensive at the dealership. I bought all the parts from a Lexus dealership online and I serviced mine over the last two days:

- replaced engine air filter
- replaced cabin air filter
- replaced spark plugs
- changed engine oil w/ Mobile 1

I believe the 60k service also includes a brake fluid flush. Unfortunately, I've never done that before and a bit hesitant to do it. Local mechanics want $100 for the brake fluid flush... I'm still debating what I should do.
