How to make your Lexus last forever!!!

I’ve been using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and Shell gasoline top tier! Also did two transmission fluid drain and fills with Amsoil Signature. Gotta do a third soon and also did my spark plugs at 60k miles. Nearly approaching 70k!

Great recommendations! I’ve adopted a few of them (except for gas and oil type) over the last 6 years, and I totally agree. Keeping an eye on oil, using a good air filter (OEM), the correct antifreeze type, spark plugs (every 100K miles or less), coils, and suspension parts will definitely keep your car running great. I own a 2007 LS460 with 315K miles on it. I was planning to sell it at the beginning of this year because I wanted a newer car, but I decided to keep it until it doesn’t run anymore. Great video!

[@EddieGS350]

Damnnn crazy at 300k+ miles. What gas oil you normally use?

[@unamsoft]

@@EddieGS350 I used Castrol (full-Syn). and OEM filter. I changed oil every 4K - like a clock.

[@noahmonte8581]

Make sure to keep up on transmission maintenance! I bought mine at 83k miles, previous owners didn't do any fluod changes. I didnt notice it until I got it done, but it shifts wayyyyy smoother now in all of the gears. I believe 60k miles is the best time to swap the fluid but all i know is that the "lifetime fluid" is a lie.

[@EddieGS350]

ahh I didn't mention it cause well I didn't want to make another boring vid on "keep up with your maint" but yeah totally agree. I did a drain and fill at around 45k miles. Gonna do another at 60k.

thanks for watching!

[@theshortmike4508]

Yeah I ended up buying a used one with 150k miles my transmission died around 156k miles. Lady never changed that transmission fluid 🙈

[@tomb427]

The shocks are made with a pre set travel setting and putting lowering springs in kills the tubes due to more travel. Others saying they are 7 years are lying or put oem springs in.

[@EddieGS350]

Ahh I have friends who have had springs on their cars for several years in real life. Ofc a car lowered on springs will wear out faster giving exact same conditions. But my theory is that by avoiding all pot holes bumpy roads you can go just as long as someone with stock springs.

[@captainsparklezx13]

The oil discussion comes up a lot with the 2GR and I think it really just comes down to changing your oil often even before it's due + using the same brand every time + not being over/under filled. I started using Castrol GTX which is a conventional oil every 3,000 miles and my 2006 is buttery smooth and burns maybe 0.5q between changes. But lots of people want to use a full synthetic oil so they can wait 5,000mi. Also what you said about Chevron is true, our cars like something about their additive package.

[@EddieGS350]

yooo! Castrol was good to me too lol. My old ES 300 got to 280k miles on Castrol, but it was burning 1 qt every 3-5k lol. Not bad for a 280k engine tho.

[@captainsparklezx13]

@@EddieGS350 Yeah that's not bad at all for so many miles. Toyota engines are happy burning a little oil anyways. What eventually gave out on your ES?

great video , I have a 2013 gs 350 and with 370,000 km on it.i love my gs and plan to keep it for ever!! Im really surprised you recommend pennzoil.ive only heard negative things about that oil.stuff like " its recycled oil, the viscosity is sucks etc" however I see your not the only person that uses it so i will probably try it out. thanks bruh!!

[@EddieGS350]

Ooh I was never a big penzoil guy too until they came out with the ultra platinum line. Been using it for 5 years now.

[@truonghthe]

I had to put Chevron to shut my fuel pump chirps up. Initially I thought a loose belt tensioner. After digging it the fuel pump making noise despite the recall has been done. I do feed her Texas Buccee's 93 premium no Ethanol gas and so far she seem to be happy. As far as MPG difference between gas brand, I do not notice as much. Because once the right foot is down on the pedal the GSF would drop from 29 highway MPG to 16 MPG. FYI any Toyota part that contains YZZ mean it a lower grade part that made to compete with aftermarket part so it cheaper than original part but still conform to Toyota/Lexus quality requirement. I put original air filter and cabin filter for my GSF. I been used Mobil 1 oil for years in other vehicle, however I notice once switched to Pennzoil the motor seem to rev more freely. If I drove the car more often I would use Asmoil full synthetic, but right now the yearly avg is 2700 miles. Things you did not mentioned in the video as follow. Trying to avoid multiple short trips, rev the car out when engine oil temp not to operating temp. I am not sure your F sport has oil temp read out, but in my GSF it has coolant and engine oil temp read out. Oil change interval is another factor, every 6 months/5000 miles or 12 months/5000 miles if you use synthetic as oiil change cost is cheaper than motor replacement cost. Cabin air filter and engine air filter is due every 12 months/12k miles (I do it every other oil change interval). Replace transmission fluid and rear differential every 60k miles. Engine coolant is every 5 years/60k miles (stick with Toyota pink coolant). Another maint item often over looked is A/C. Every vehicle I owned, I have A/C evacuated and recharge up to factory specs every 5 years. This to avoid lack of lubrication of compressor. Full evac and recharge cost $145 vs system replacement $2500.

[@EddieGS350]

Man, I'm so jealous you got an oil temp gauge. The GS doesn't even have a sensor that an OBDII scanner can read. Good tip on the A/C!! That one was new to me for sure. What's funny is my family has had really bad luck with cars and A/Cs. I'll look into that for my GS, might be the first car where the A/C doesn't break in the middle of summer.

[@possession3929]

woiuld you get a transmission flush or drain n fill at lexus for 60k on the gs

Hey Eddie! New subscriber here. I recently bought a 23' IS 350 last month! It was a tough choice between a 20' GS 350 and the new 21+ IS 350s, but went with the IS. Anyways, I saw Lexus made an F-Sport intake filter (Part # PTR0353141AA). Do you think these will be a decent second option since it is OEM? Those will fit my car and i'm sure theres a version for the GS as well. I already bought it and it is arriving tomorrow. I've seen those other videos comparing intake filters, and the graph in your video was in regards to K&N. Only reason I bought it is because it is made by Lexus and that part will fit my intake as well. Interesting you mentioned the ECO mode for climate controls. I never noticed that until now in my car. Going to swap to ECO and see how well that works. Hopefully I dont notice a difference haha. Btw, i've seen a bunch of your videos and from I recall I dont think you have any LED door projector puddle lights. It is a very cheap mod and will project the lexus or fsport logo on the ground when you open the door. Might be something you'd be interested in and possibly even make a vid out of? I recently bought the V3 on lexusacc.com with the Lexus logo, looks just like the OEM lights lexus puts in some of their newer lines.

Ahhh bro! What's funny is I was about to make a vid on it!!! I was going to compare the F Sport filter vs the OEM and see how good it filters.

When I used Mobil 1 I did start burning a little bit of oil but when I switched to Penz it stopped, so I think the filter worked pretty good. I had my F Sport intake for like 50k miles before i sold my IS. Honestly if you live in an area like florida that has very little dirt/particles. I'd run it no probs. And ahh thanks bro!

Ahh you are lucky, your car doesn't have the picky fuel pump. The 16-17 models are prone to the chirps. Tbh there are times when I fill up with Costco cause im cheap lol. There are times I get the chirps and there are times I don't but with Chevron I never chirp.

aww man the dealer charges an arm and leg for it lol. The penz got some good data behind it and ofc I can get it pretty cheap at wally world lol.

I go back and forth with Chevron and Costco. For some reason chevron gas last longer and I get better MPG. Great informative video for any GS owner.🫡

[@EddieGS350]

Yoo Fonzi, I gotta ask since you are local lol. Which Costco you go to? Azusa or Rowland? I do go to the Costco usually Azusa, here and there cause Im cheap but it makes me chirp sometimes. I got the years with the bad fuel pumps lol.

@@EddieGS350 I actually live in San Bernardino at the moment but I do agree with you chevron does make a difference compared to cheaper Costco gas.
