MAINTENANCE
EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Steering Linkage and Boots
With the vehicle stopped, check
for excessive freeplay in the steering
wheel. Inspect the linkage for bending
and damage and the dust boots for
deterioration, cracks and damage.
Replace any damaged parts. A
qualified technician should perform
these operations.
Timing Chain
The timing chain requires no
periodic inspection.
Tire Rotation
See your Owner’s Manual for tire
rotation requirements. Check tire
pressure and check tires for damage
and uneven wear. If the vehicle is
equipped with a spare tire, check the
condition and pressure of the spare.
Tire-Pressure Warning Sensors
A tire-pressure sensor is mounted on
each full-size wheel. These sensors
do not require periodic maintenance.
When a sensor’s long-life lithium bat-
tery becomes discharged, the battery
should be replaced by a qualified
technician following procedures in
Lexus service and repair publications.
Transfer Case Oil
Check for correct oil level and
inspect each component for signs of
leakage. If you discover any leakage,
have it repaired immediately by a
qualified technician. For correct oil,
refer to your Owner’s Manual.
Transmission
The transmission and transmission
fluid are a completely sealed unit.
Therefore, periodic checks and
replacement of the transmission
fluid are not required, and there is
no dipstick on the transmission.
Any repairs that require adding or
replacing fluid should be performed
by a qualified technician following
procedures in Lexus service and
repair publications.
Vacuum Pump for Brake Booster
Inspect at specified interval. If blade
requires replacement, use a new blade.
Never reuse the blade. A qualified
technician should perform this
inspection.
Wiper Blades
The wiper blades should not show
any signs of cracking, splitting, wear,
contamination or deformation.
The wiper blades should clear the
windshield without streaking
or skipping.
