How Much Does It Cost For 45k Rx300 Maintenance?

[john11]

Hi All,

I just bought an RX300, 2001, with 42K

My local lexus dealership recommends me to 45K tune up.

and it cost $425

Is this cost reasonable?

does anyone know, or have a list about maintenances that would be done at 45K?

Thanks,

the 45k is not really a full tune up, it is just fluid service. Spark plugs aren't replaced.

It is the same as a 15k service. The $425 is kinda high. My 15k serive was $310 and that was with tax. You may get a lower price at a Toyota Dealership and it is acceptable to go to them.

I just did my 45k myself and it cost me a total of $75 and 3 hours.

The suggested list of stuff is in the supplemental owners manual, but this list can vary from dealer to dealer.

For my ES it would have been/was basically

Oil and filter change,

Tranny/diff fluid drain and fill,

Replace air filter,

repalce cabin air filter (if needed)

check levels on brake, coolant and power steering fluid, top off if necessay

rotate tires
