What happens if my Lexus IS F spark plugs fail?

Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Lexus’s recommendations.

What should I do if I see leaks under my IS F?

Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.

Are some driving habits better for my Lexus IS F engine than others?

Hard stops and starts can lead to premature wear on your engine’s components. Lighten up that lead foot and opt for steady, fluid starts and stops instead. Your engine (and your passengers!) will thank you.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Lexus IS F

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Lexus IS F engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option.

The result? Restored fuel system performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your IS F can determine what kind of service it needs.
