I go along with Code58, great plugs, and timing belt did look great at 100k miles. Just dont ever put plugs other than the Denso, or NGK iridium. They are a top notch plug and probably would go an easy 180k miles.

Returning to the original topic of this thread...

Just over 120,000 miles now with my 2002. All major services done at Lexus dealerships. Oil changes at Toyota and independents. Only Toyota spec fluid. No additive nor snake oil.

Issues:
Warped front rotors - replaced under warranty at 42K
Screeching belts - replaced under warranty at 45K?
Broken antenna - drove through a car wash
Weak hatch lift when cold - replaced myself a few months ago

That's it! Amazingly reliable.

Default 137k and still going strong

Did most routine oil changes at Toyota. Toyota for 30 and 120k; Lexus for 60k and Independant mechanic for 90k. Changed belt/water pump and plugs at 90k. Wear and tear replacement of Tires/battery/headlights/wipers/pads. Rotors are still original. Had to change driver side door lock actuator ~200. Rear hatch goes up slowly when opened but learnt to live with it. Planning to change the original transmission fluid (Drain/Fill) next weekend.

Oh...it is a 2001 FWD Silversport (Black)

If all goes well I will have new shoes...RX330 18" wheels and 255/55/18 Michelin Latitude HP 109V

It's done at 90K. Plugs done at 120K by the book.
