This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Lexus themselves. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your LS500 running for longer, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2018 Lexus LS500 problems later.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2018 Lexus LS500? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Lexus LS500 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your LS500 stranded. Your Lexus LS500 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2018 Lexus LS500 running newer, longer. To learn how often Lexus recommends you have the oil changed in your 2018 LS500, check out the information table at the beginning 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 2018 Lexus LS500.

  • What should I do after hitting a pothole in my Lexus LS500? You know your Lexus LS500 better than anyone else, so you’ll know if something doesn’t feel right while driving.
