2564-1. Before driving
LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
NOTICE
■When encountering flooded roads
Do not drive on a road that has flooded after heavy rain etc. Doing so may cause
the following serious damage to the vehicle:
●Engine stalling
●Short in electrical components
●Engine damage caused by water immersion
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle is flooded, be sure to
have your Lexus dealer check the following:
●Brake function
●Changes in quantity and quality of oil and fluid used for the engine, transmission,
transfer (AWD models), differential, etc.
●Lubricant condition for the propeller shaft, bearings and suspension joints (where
possible), and the function of all joints, bearings, etc.

5186-2. Maintenance
LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
What about do-it-yourself maintenance?
Many of the maintenance items are easy to do yourself if you have a little mechan-
ical ability and a few basic automotive tools. Simple instructions for how to per-
form them are presented in this section.
Note, however, that some maintenance tasks require special tools and skills.
These are best performed by qualified technicians. Even if you are an experi-
enced do-it-yourself mechanic, we recommend that repairs and maintenance be
conducted by your Lexus dealer who will keep a record of maintenance on your
vehicle. This record could be helpful should you ever require Warranty Service.
■Does your vehicle need repairs?
Be on the alert for changes in performance and sounds, and visual tip-offs that indi-
cate service is needed. Some important clues are:
●Engine missing, stumbling or pinging
●Appreciable loss of power
●Strange engine noises
●A fluid leak under the vehicle (However, water dripping from the air conditioning
system after use is normal.)
●Change in exhaust sound (This may indicate a dangerous carbon monoxide leak.
Drive with the windows open and have the exhaust system checked immediately.)
●Flat-looking tires, excessive tire squeal when cornering, uneven tire wear
●Vehicle pulls to one side when driven straight on a level road
●Strange noises related to suspension movement
●Loss of brake effectiveness, spongy feeling brake pedal, pedal almost touches the
floor, vehicle pulls to one side when braking
●Engine coolant temperature continually higher than normal ( P. 125)
If you notice any of these clues, take your vehicle to your Lexus dealer as soon as
possible. Your vehicle may need adjustment or repair.
