Orlando, your dealership is ripping you off. You should review your warranty and maintenance guide that came with your car. The 15k service for your RC 350 F Sport according to Lexus is only the following: ❑ Inspect and adjust all fluid levels ❑ Replace Smart Key battery ❑ Reset maintenance reminder light ❑ Visually inspect brake pads, calipers and rotors ❑ Check installation of driver’s floor mat ❑ Road-test vehicle ❑ Inspect the following No real work here, and should only be charged 1hr labor. Obviously I would do this myself and save the $150. Engine air filter doesn't need to be changed until 30k. If I were you I would only take it in for the oil changes every 10k. Save yourself some money (a lot of money in your case) and skip the unnecessary 5k interval.

If you were to change the oil yourself and buy full synthetic oil and filter, it would cost about $17. 10 quarts of oil is about $12(after mail and rebate) and $5 for the oil filter. Lexus isn’t a BMW or Audi, they are reliable and cheap to maintain. It’s still a Toyota with a luxury brand name and I honestly wouldn’t buy any other cars due to the brand’s low cost in maintenance.

Most of the maintenance is just checking things you can do yourself, like oil levels, tire pressure, brake pads, etc. a normal mechanic will do all these things for cheap, like $150 vs. the $350 Lexus will charge you.

Here are my dislikes: 1) - The pockets on the door panels aren’t wide enough to get my hand in. They are too narrow and nearly useless. 2) As gorgeous as the interior is, there is nowhere to put anything aside from the glove compartment or center console. You can place things on the screen, but then it blocks your navigation or whatever your screen is set to display. You can use the cup holders but I commute with my travel mug, and believe it or not, the other cup holder is for my “ash tray” cup. Yes, I smoke in my car but you’d never know it. I shut the climate control, open all windows, and the roof as well. 3) Everything on the dash and console is lit up beautifully at night, but the buttons on the steering wheel are way too dim by comparison. I thought it was a problem, I brought it to the dealership who said that’s how it is, and nobody ever complained before. I am not convinced though, it’s such a drastic difference you’d think quality control or someone on the design team would have realized. Anyone else see the brightness difference on the steering wheel buttons? Same with the seat settings on the drivers door panel. They light up, but barely. None of these are showstoppers for me, I’d buy this car over in a heartbeat. If those are my only problems, I’ll take it and be grateful. It’s such an awesome looking, performing, and luxurious experience. The seats are amazingly comfortable. It drives more like a luxury car than a sports car. The comfort level is fantastic. The AWD handles the snow too, in fact, I can’t wait for it to snow.

Dealership usually charge people a lot more than necessary on the labor cost. I need to replace my full radiator unit on my 2011 Infiniti and dealer quote me $1,500 for oem parts and labor, plus tax. Then I visited my usual private garage (the place where i have my brake services done; and for some other family cars too). The owner quoted me $750 + tax for the same oem parts and work. So I figured that dealership maintenance cost is just a rip-off, I go to them mostly because of oil change that comes with car wash.

@orlandojacinto17 жыл бұрын
Each tire. I plan to shop around for tires. I'm sure the plan can be added with cost of the car, it will add extra interest to the financing. I would buy the plan separately using cash. I was considering buying the plan but it is not worth it to me anymore. The maintenance plans are more for customers that want to save money in terms of long term service costs and plan to keep their car for years. For example, I was told the 30K service maintenance is very expensive, buying a 30K maintenance plan in advance would save you up to 30% without the plan. I would ask the dealership for the break down of each plan. People leaving helpful comments here and doing my own research, I would rather DIY what I can without voiding the warranty. Then take my Lexus to the dealership for scheduled maintenance of things like an alignment and tune up. Adjusting the temperature while driving can be distracting at times. The black one was my first choice, but the one on the lot did not have the Mark Levinsion Audio and four-wheel steering. Thanks for the comment.

Hi Eleanor. The 15K mile maintenance service includes: Four wheel alignment, balance all tires, clean air filters (not change), replace the key fob battery, thorough inspection, top off all fluids, replace wiper blades, and clean the car inside out. Most of the cost is from the four wheel alignment and tire balance. I did get 15% (about $45) off the service from a mailer I received from the dealer. Next time, I plan to DIY some of the items myself. Btw...I mentioned my next oil change (recommended every 10K) is at 25K miles, it is actually at 20K. Synthetic oil is used that is why it cost about $90.00. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment.

30k miles car change oil filter and oil every 10k, break fluid, a quarter of transmission fluid (not flush), break fluid and possibly power steering fluid. that's all u need for 30k miles. if you dont know what you are doing ofc you'll get ripped of at any dealership. the service you got probably u have to pay $100 outside. Considering lexus is a luxury car, your service is still cheap. mbenz service A $275, Service B almost $500 now.

If I could afford an LC500 or even the RC F I would of bought it but I went a totally different direction and bought a new and custom ordered 21 challenger TA392 widebody.

Stop taking it to a stealer ship, you can take it to a trusted shop. Just because you have a Lexus doesn't mean you have to take it there for service. I have had many Lexus vehicles and I own 2 now.

Here's what I hate about my 2017 Lexus RC350 F Sport AWD. 1) The entire center stack. The design isn't very nice. Mazda and Kia have nicer center stacks. Look at the buttons for "Media" in this video; they're just plastic nubs. It's terrible. 2) The track pad! WHY?! That thing is an abomination. It's slow to respond, inconsistent, and hard to predict where your cursor will go since it snaps to buttons. You'd think that would help, but it doesn't since you still have to look at the screen to know what's selected. 3) The infotainment system UI. This is related to the track pad, but look at how many things show up in multiple places for no reason. Climate information display, for example, shows up on the nav screen when you make a change. Why? There's a dedicated display to show that all the time! Why repeat it? Better yet, why have the cheap car looking display at all. Just put that information in the nav screen. 4) The back seat has no cup holders at all and yet the RC F (I had one for four days) has TWO cup holders in the back seat. Again, WHY?! No one wants to sit in the back of an RC F and even if they do, you sure don't want them drinking anything! Those cup holders should be in the RC350. 5) No touch screen or Android Auto. Look Lexus, you make really nice cars but why are you reinventing the wheel? Let Google and Apple integrate with your cars and stop wasting money on your track pad and infotainment! Especially the voice command thing. It just doesn't work very reliably. Here's what I love about my Lexus RC350. 1) I leased it and I get to give it back! 2) Since it's leased, I don't pay for maintenance! Lexus pays for it; it's their car after all. 3) The AWD in the snow is really amazing. 4) The seats are quite comfortable and I'm glad to have both heated and cooled options. 5) It's just enough fun that I'm not constantly on the verge of losing my license (that's what the RC F is for, stupid fun). I really do like the car. It is a fun car as a daily driver and despite that center stack business, it has a very nice and comfortable interior. I just don't see myself wanting to keep it long term. There are too many other interesting options out there.
@orlandojacinto16 жыл бұрын
Yes the center console is very bad Lexus should not have put the screen so deep into the console. The problem with the infotainment system is the software, slight improvement with the 2018. I traded for an RC F back in April, it so fun to drive! As you know, the seats in the RC F are just as comfortable. However, the drive is not as comfortable (feel more of the road) as the RC350 but I like it nonetheless since it's sportier.
@SirRadd6 жыл бұрын
Ride quality of the RC F was one of the main reasons I gave it back after just 4 days. Everyone that drove with me was getting car sick within minutes. It was a blast to drive that car, but only for me. Lexus tried really hard to get me to keep the RC F, but that was partly because they really didn't want to pay to fix the paint on my RC350. It was covered in holograms and scratches from a bad polish job. In the end, they paid for the fix and I kept the RC350. Also, my wife didn't even realize that I had the RC F instead of the RC350. They're very similar in appearance, both inside and out. I just couldn't see the value in doing the swap, but I won't lie, for a day or so I was very tempted! :-)
@orlandojacinto16 жыл бұрын
I do miss the smooth ride of the RC350, but the RC F is so much fun to drive. The cabin can be loud at times from the V8 along with the road noise depending on road you were driving on that made people car sick. The V8 at idle during stops was annoying at first but I got use to it, passengers don't like.
