2013 Lexus GS350 Oil Change Q&A

  • Should I check my Lexus GS350 motor oil level? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your GS350’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Lexus GS350 oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce 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 GS350 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Lexus GS350 oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Lexus GS350 oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Lexus GS350 to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Lexus GS350 oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Does my GS350's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? You should replace your Lexus GS350 during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
