How Often to Get 2019 Lexus RC300 Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2019 Lexus RC300? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 2019 RC300’s oil should be changed according to Lexus’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your RC300 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Lexus if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Lexus RC300. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

What Kind of Oil Should I Get for My Lexus RC300?

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2019 Lexus RC300 motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Lexus has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 2019 RC300. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, keep the engine cool, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine. During an oil change, an auto technician will change your RC300’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your RC300 by taking into account your driving habits, and the number of miles on your odometer.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2019 Lexus RC300

  • What can low oil do to my Lexus RC300 engine? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and eventually lead to Lexus RC300 engine failure. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Lexus RC300 oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Lexus RC300 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Lexus RC300? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Lexus RC300 oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Lexus RC300? Your Lexus RC300 oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Do I need to replace my RC300’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Lexus RC300, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
