Your Guide to 2002 Lexus GS300 Scheduled Maintenance

You want your Lexus GS300 to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, your GS300 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine GS300 maintenance. Just follow your 2002 Lexus GS300 maintenance schedule!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Lexus themselves. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your GS300 running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2002 Lexus GS300 problems in the future.

Overview of Essential Lexus GS300 Maintenance Needs

Bring your 2002 Lexus GS300 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your GS300's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2002 Lexus GS300 be ready for a new battery? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Lexus GS300 battery, and so can frequent short drives. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your GS300 stranded. Your Lexus GS300 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2002 Lexus GS300 engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2002 GS300. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil.
