oil maint required
My car now displays oil service required and i have about 95xx miles on it. is it possible to just change the oil myself or do i have to take it in to lexus? what should i expect if i take it in? I would love any suggestions. thanks.

You don't have to take it in to Lexus. You can reference these threads on how to change your IS250 or IS350, and this thread on how to clear the 'Oil Maint Reqd' light, all of which are found in the FAQ's for the 2nd Generation IS.

Thanks for all the great advice and write ups. The first oil change at 5k, I sold out and took it to lexus. they did i for free the first time though. They wanted me to pay for the second one. I think that was the first time that I actually took my car anywhere to do an oil change for me. I always do them myself. Also does anyone have anythoughts on using amsoil or royal purple? thats what i always used for my other cars. Thanks again
