Maintenance and care

■Engine oil consumption
●The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the quality of the
oil and the way the vehicle is driven.
●More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and frequent
acceleration and deceleration.
●A new engine consumes more oil.
●When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil may have
become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accurately.
●Oil consumption: Max. 1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 lmp.qt./600 miles (1.0 L per 1000
km)
●If you consume more than 1.1 qt. (1.0 L, 0.9 lmp.qt.) every 600 miles (1000 km),
contact your Lexus dealer.
