Lightbulb How do you change ES300 spark plugs?

I would like to do this before I go into my 90K service. If its a diy, then I can save $$$ at the service. I have 102K right now. I know I know...I'm late. I'll get on it

Oh yeah I also need my brake rotors replaced, break pads, a/c expansion valve changed out, power steering pump replaced (I have the part) and my upper control arms re lubbed. I think thats it for now...Ohh yeah my tranny fluid needs to be chaged out as well. How much for all this stuff? I saw a breakfdown of the 90K service for V8 lexus cars. What about us 2nd gen ES owners?

Changing the spark plugs, brake rotors and brake pads, fluid changes are fairly easy to do for car diyers. However, if you haven't done it before I suggest you go to a shop that specialiazes in Lexus or the dealer. The dealer is gonna charge you more however. That way, you can just watch out the window how they do it so you'll know the next time around. I hate for you doing it for the first time and you break a spark plug, thread them incorrectly or worst yet, do the brakes incorrectly and you end up crashing.

My .02 cents
