Default What needs to be done at 25k miles?

My car is almost at 25k. What needs to be inspected and changed at 25k? At 20k, all I did was changed my oil.

No one said that was his first oil change.

http://www.lexus.com/maintenance should have more information for you. Best of luck!

iirc, 20k you shouldve changed oil, brake pads, cabin filter, and tires (if you still had stock tires).

I just did my 30k (nothing at 25k): oil change, brake fluid change, cabin filter, and engine (intake) filter.

I did my covered service by the dealer with oil changed at 10k. I did an oil change by myself at 20k. I didn't do anything to the fluids yet though.

You're suppose to change your brake pads 20k? I don't hear any squeaky noise on a daily basis expect on a few cold morning days. If 25k don't need anything to change then, I'll just wait til 30k and just reset the notification. I know 30k is the first most comprehensive inspection

Hey guys, do you guys know where I can get the pink coolant for the radiator? It looks kind of low and I rather add the oil myself then go to the dealer and get charged for it. Does anyone know what the pink coolant container on the left side of the engine

I had the stock F-Sport pads, they are notoriously low mileage.

Agree on that, but brake pads and tires are replaced based upon wear, not mileage. They should be inspected regularly, but condition determines if they need to be replaced.

Yes, brake pads were inspected by my oil change guy. They were DONE. Changed them out with a help of a friend. Here's a picture of the pads (new vs stock f-sport) at around 19,500 mi. 20k can give you a good baseline of what to expected. But you're absolutely right, mileage will vary.

This is under normal driving conditions. I've heard f-sport pads being done after 1 track session.

I just had mine inspected at about 13k miles, and I have "just over half" of the pads left. I think yeah, it depends on how you use em. I just commute, with the occasional back road drive, but not really any heavy braking unless I must.

Best thing I ever did was to replace the stock pads to ones that worked just as well but didn’t dust like sin! 20K miles on them now, and still plenty of life left.

yep, replaced my pads with low dust ones was a great move.
