MAINTENANCE Scheduled Maintenance Log70 Engine Coolant
When inspecting, visually check
the level of the engine coolant on the
see-through reservoir. Add coolant
as necessary. When replacing, drain
the cooling system and refill with
coolant. Always use Genuine Toyota
Super Long-Life Coolant or similar
high-quality non-silicate, non-amine,
non-nitrate, non-borate ethylene-
glycol coolant with long-life hybrid
organic acid technology (i.e., a
combination of low phosphates and
organic acids). A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Check the radiator and condenser
for blockage by leaves, dirt or insects
and clean if necessary. Also check
the hose connections for corrosion
and condition of installation.
n ote: Initial replacement of engine
coolant is at 120 months/100,000
miles. Replace every 60 months/
50,000 miles thereafter. Engine Oil and Oil Filter
Replace the oil filter and drain and
refill the engine oil at specified
intervals. SAE 0W-20 oil is the best
choice for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather. If SAE
0W-20 is not available, SAE 5W-20
may be used; however, it must be
replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the
next oil change. See your Lexus
dealer for oil specifically formulated
for your vehicle’s engine.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
replaceable oil-filter element and oil-
filter cap O-ring; replace both at each
oil change. For instructions on how to
reset the reminder light, refer to your
Owner’s Manual.
n ote: If you do the majority of your
driving under any of the special
operating conditions indicated on
page 44, you should replace the
engine oil and oil filter every six
months or 5,000 miles, regardless
of the oil used or the certification
of the vehicle.
