Default HELP! 40K+ SERVICE FOR MY GS300!!!

Hello people,

I haven't been on the site in a while! Good to be back.

I have a 1998 Lexus GS300 with about 43,000 miles on it now. I change the oil frequently but the last dealer service I did on the car was back when it had 34,000 miles. Is there a service that you recommend at this mileage now? I also wanted to know if any of you know of a good place where I can service my Lexus in the Los Angeles area OTHER THAN a dealership. I obviously do not want to pay the crazy prices that they all seem to offer. Please let me know. Any autohorized Lexus service places or just places that you recommend that know about the Lexus gem? Thanks!

What LA Area Lexus dealers have you used so far? I have used Longo Lexus with very satisfying results in both service and price. If you like, I can refer a good contact their for you.
