Your 2012 IS350’s oil should be changed according to Lexus’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your IS350 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.

More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Lexus IS350. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.
