Lexus Oil Change FAQs

How do I know when my Lexus needs its oil changed?

If your engine produces knocking or grinding sounds while it runs, it's probably because it lacks proper lubrication and an oil change may be required. Failure to address these sounds may lead to irreversible engine damage. If you also experiences burning smells in your car or the "check engine" light illuminates, it's likely that your Lexus needs an oil change.

Should I have my oil filter replaced when I change my oil?

Yes. The expert technicians at Lexus recommend changing your oil filter every time you change your oil to avoid unwanted contaminants. The previous oil change contributes to unwanted pollutants in an old oil filter, which is why we always take care of it.

How often should my vehicle get an oil change?

It is vital to keep your vehicle running smoothly by getting your oil changed regularly. Typically, this is recommended every 7,500 miles, but it can vary depending on factors like driving habits, oil quality, and the car's age.

What does clean motor oil look like?

The color of motor oil shifts based on how long it's been inside your car's engine and any ongoing mechanical issues. New oil will typically have an amber hue, while older oil will appear darker.
