The 07 Lx470 went in today for this major service. Looking forward to getting her back tomorrow. Just love driving this vehicle.

I paid 805 at my Lexus dealer for my 04 ES. That included drive belts and water pump, that was with a 20% discount. My local independent shop is good, but the Lexus dealer works on these cars all day. I want it done right, plus I got to drive a 2010 ES for a loaner. Hope everything goes good for you.

That's a huge chunk of change! Then again it's from the dealer so no surprise there.

Was curious about the cost of the 90k service myself. My Lexus dealer quote was $1986.00. Ouch!! Decided to price it all out myself and with exactly the same parts was able to bring it to my local neighborhood Toyota moonlighter mechanic. Parts ran $189.00 and labor plus fluid was $575.00. With the savings I decided to replace all 4 tires, rear shocks and the bank 2 #1 oxygen sensor. Total cost for everything was under $1400.00
