Your 2007 SC430’s oil should be changed according to Lexus’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above.

More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Lexus SC430. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.
