2003 Lexus GS300 Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Lexus GS300 engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your GS300’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Lexus GS300 oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Lexus exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.

  • What does it mean if my Lexus GS300 oil light comes on? Your Lexus GS300 oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change.
