1999 Lexus SC400 Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Lexus SC400 and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, your SC400 could be on the road well past the 200,000 mile mark. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine SC400 maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 1999 Lexus SC400!

Lexus knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your SC400 perform better, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 1999 Lexus SC400 problems.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1999 Lexus SC400 and our technicians will jump right in 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your SC400’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Could your 1999 Lexus SC400 be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Yours may need to be replaced sooner depending on your driving habits and climate. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your Lexus SC400 battery, and so can frequent short drives. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Lexus SC400 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can help your 1999 Lexus SC400's engine run smoother. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 1999 SC400. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. Not sure what type of oil to use for your 1999 Lexus SC400? We can help with that, too!

These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Components within your Lexus SC400's steering system require regular maintenance.

If you skip recommended Lexus SC400 services, you could be feeling the heat on the road – literally! A malfunctioning A/C system or overheating engine can wreak havoc on your car.
