What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 2000 Lexus LS400?
You want your Lexus LS400 to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your LS400 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get LS400 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2000 Lexus LS400!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Lexus, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like 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 LS400 running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2000 Lexus LS400 problems in the future.
Bring your 2000 Lexus LS400 to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services 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. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your LS400's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.
Could your 2000 Lexus LS400 be ready for a new battery? 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 LS400 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Lexus LS400 battery. It can be tempting to try and get as much life out of your battery as possible, but it’s smart to check it regularly and replace it before it gets too weak. Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your LS400 stranded. 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 support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2000 Lexus LS400 running newer, longer. See Lexus's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2000 LS400 in the chart at the top of this page. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2000 Lexus LS400.
