Your Guide to 2008 Lexus LS460 Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Lexus LS460 and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, your LS460 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. But how do you know what service to get and when? It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine LS460 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2008 Lexus LS460!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Lexus themselves. 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, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your LS460 perform better, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2008 Lexus LS460 problems in the future.

Overview of Essential Lexus LS460 Maintenance Needs

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2008 Lexus LS460 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your LS460's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Could your 2008 Lexus LS460 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your LS460 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Lexus LS460 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 LS460 stranded. Your Lexus LS460 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2008 Lexus LS460 running newer, longer. See Lexus's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2008 LS460 in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2008 Lexus LS460.

These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Prevent damage or premature wear and tear on your Lexus LS460's steering system with regular maintenance.

If you fall behind on routine Lexus LS460 maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

Take an active role in maintaining your 2008 Lexus LS460. Get answers to common Lexus LS460 maintenance questions and learn more about caring for your vehicle.

  • What do I do if I hit a pothole in my Lexus LS460? Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When does my Lexus LS460 need high mileage oil? If your Lexus LS460 has ticked past 75,000 miles, consider switching to high mileage oil at your next oil change to give your engine what it needs to go another 75,000 (or more!). High mileage oil: make it a high priority!
  • Can Lexus dashboard warning lights wait? 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. Letting problems linger can mean bad news for your Lexus LS460, so be sure to take your car in for service as soon as you notice an illuminated dashboard light
