Expected Repairs 50,000 to 100,000 2004 LS
I will soon be at about 50,000 miles as my 4 year warranty expires on my (bot new) 2004 LS430 with ML. What can I expect over the next 2-3 years (12-15K/year) in the way of major repairs not covered by warranty?

Timing Belt ( water pump ), Plugs, Tranny Flush, Coolant Flush, O2 sensor, Ball Joints, Belts, Hoses, Strut Seals
are these items you guys generally do just to do, or wait till you have issues. I realize the Timing Belt, hoses and belts are a good idea (and water pump due to ease). Plugs are a good idea. Tranny fluid is suppose to never be changed if I remember a post I read (but some felt it a good idea), Coolant Flush (is this recommended by Lexus), 02 sensor? Strut Seals? Can you go into a little more detail on these?
