Driving Belts
Hello,
My 2005 RX330 needed new driving belts at 48,000 miles. Dealer said these were not covered under warranty. Warranty book does not list them as not covered. Should I contact Lexus?
Thanks,

I have a 99 RX and that does not use the serpentine belt. The serpentine in other Lexus use a self tensioning idler.
'99 uses two belts (each around $15 from dealer).
There is a write-up in RX300 so I would not repeat it here.
Just be careful that the tension needs to be correct. I bought a tension gauge to set it properly.
