Maintenance for Your 1999 Lexus LS400

How often should I service my 1999 Lexus LS400?

Here’s Why 1999 Lexus LS400 Scheduled Maintenance Matters

Take care of your Lexus LS400 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 LS400. But how do you know what service to get and when? Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your LS400, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1999 Lexus LS400!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Lexus, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; 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. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your LS400 perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 1999 Lexus LS400 problems later.

Learn About Vital Maintenance Needs for Your Lexus LS400

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1999 Lexus LS400 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 LS400’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1999 Lexus LS400 be ready for a new battery? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your LS400 may need a replacement battery sooner. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Lexus LS400 battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Lexus LS400 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1999 Lexus LS400's engine run smoother. To learn how often Lexus recommends you have the oil changed in your 1999 LS400, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1999 Lexus LS400? We can help with that, too!

Maintaining your Lexus LS400 steering and suspension system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. When it comes to steering and suspension, you want to catch small problems before they turn into big (and expensive) ones. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, provide Lexus LS400 steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Lexus LS400's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Lexus LS400 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Lexus LS400 cooling, heating, and climate control system. Need a new Lexus LS400 radiator? We’ve got your back. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your one-stop shop for 1999 Lexus LS400 maintenance and repairs.

  • When should I have Lexus LS400 alignment checked? You know your Lexus LS400 better than anyone else, so you’ll know if something doesn’t feel right while driving. Have your alignment checked (and adjusted if necessary) as soon as you notice a pulling steering wheel to prevent suspension damage or uneven tire wear.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Lexus LS400? Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Lexus LS400 engines.
  •  Why are my Lexus dashboard lights on? It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible. An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should.
