Default First Major Service for IS250

This question is important to me as my car just got up to 20K miles after buying it in 2009. I was lucky enough to even pull the plastic off the truck and be the only driver who ever drove it.

So far i have had only oil changes, air and cabin filter changes along with tire rotations. 3 years later this car still runs great.

What was it? Where did you get it serviced from? and How much did it costs?

I apologize if there are other threads like this!

Even 30k is not really a "MAJOR" service. You just need an oil change, brake fluid flush, cabin filter and engine filter change and differential fluid (AWD only) I believe.

Yup... nearest to actual "major" service is 60k when you do the same stuff plus spark plugs.


Every 5k- oil change

Every 15k- check air and cabin filters

Every 30- Change brake fluid (and the 15k filters if you haven't already)

Every 60k- Change spark plugs

100k- Change coolant.

That's it as far as scheduled service.
