2002 Lexus LX470 Maintenance

You want your Lexus LX470 to last as long as possible. With proactive maintenance, your LX470 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your LX470, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2002 Lexus LX470!

This recommended maintenance schedule is written by the auto manufacturer, Lexus themselves. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your LX470 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2002 Lexus LX470 problems in the future.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2002 Lexus LX470 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with 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 LX470's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2002 Lexus LX470? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your LX470 may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Lexus LX470 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, you may find yourself (and your trusty LX470) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Lexus LX470 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
