2012 Lexus IS350 Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Lexus IS350 and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your IS350. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. There's no need to guess when it's time to get IS350 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2012 Lexus IS350!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Lexus themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your IS350 running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and prevent common 2012 Lexus IS350 problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2012 Lexus IS350 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your IS350’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2012 Lexus IS350? 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). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your IS350 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Lexus IS350 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty IS350) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Lexus IS350 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2012 Lexus IS350 engine. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2012 IS350. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2012 Lexus IS350.

Routine upkeep for your Lexus IS350 suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide the appropriate Lexus IS350 steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication.

If you skip recommended Lexus IS350 services, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.
