I have to do the 100,000 mile timing belt change soon but the mechanic at Lexology here in Cali said I'll be okay for a few more thousand miles.



Hey Mate, Nice 430, what exhaust are you running? Ive got an 06 GS430 here in NZ.

362,000km. Engine internals are good I think.( but the piston rings had to go. I did a compression test when I first got it got decent enough results. Installed a catch can to try prevent buildup. Changed a solenoid on the transmission was barely drive able thankfully it gave me a code made my life easy. Just yesterday replaced both upstream sensors with new Denso. Now I only have 2 codes for downstream sensor. Think I might have vsc this winter boyzz

'07 gs350 AWD. Just turned over 140k. Previous owner drove it 30k without doing more than an oil change (20k after buying it). This species, man. Did brakes, serpentine, fluids, filters. Thankfully the first owner did the water pump. Trans and diff flushes are up next. Still shifts smooth, but I hope it's not too late.

"Samsonn25", that's impressive. Any high mileage maintenance we should know about? I know you have a hybrid but still. And I love that the battery's been on its way out for 80k. That's the guest that spends three hours in the foyer 'leaving' the party.

wow, it's more than impressive! Did you have any cost of overship lookup? I am looking for hybrid myself, did you find any problems with car related to check hybrid system warring except worst gas mileage?

Default 2008 GS350 with 229,425

I bought my GS 350 from a dealership in 2009 with 25K miles on it. My goal was to get to 200K, I've already got 229K and it's going strong. I have all scheduled maintenance done religiously.
As far as problems, the fuel pump went out at about 150K, and the alternator went out last September at 215K. Other than that, no problems whatsoever. It does burn a some oil now, about a quart every 3K miles or so. This is the best car I've ever owned and I now plan on keeping it till it hits 300K miles.

when she was a baby, looks just as good today
