Keeping up with oil changes is imperative to the health and longevity of your Lexus. Clean engine oil provides lubrication to the engine ensuring the components move properly, eliminates sludge or debris from going through the engine, improves fuel mileage, and maintains a proper temperature within the engine.
Between scheduled oil changes, you can check your oil levels at home to ensure there aren’t any leaks or issues which may need attention. We recommend that you check your engine’s oil once a month, or before any long trips. Doing this will ensure the best performance of the vehicle, and help you avoid costly repairs and unnecessary issues. Follow the steps below to quickly and accurately check your oil levels at home:
