kkensley Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 I have recently bought a 95 Es 300, but it didnt come with an owners manual. Does anyone know what kind of oil I should put in it with my first oil change this weekend? I have 190k on my car and Im thinking I should put some high milage synthetic oil in it, does anyone agree? Also I have been feeding it 92 and 94 octane is that a bad or good idea? Thanks guys and gals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys and gals If you go to www.Lexus.com and register under the Owners section or call 1-800-25-LEXUS, you can request and owners manual to be sent to your free of charge. Your oil question is not a bad one, however it is a question that always opens heated arguments and a series of opinions to be posted up, AGAIN. Please use the SEARCH function and search All Forums on the word "synthetic" (open the search up to 7 days and older) and you will see what I mean. I am closing this thread not because I don't want you to post, but I don't want a rehashing of the age old debate. Welcome to the club, but usually the easy questions have been asked and answered. Just take a minute to get used to the search function and you will save a lot of time by not having to wait for replys to your questions. Here is a link to the gas octane question.

Toysrme Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Forget high mileage oil. 5w-30 synthetic. Mobil1 synthetic in 5 quart jugs is normally $18-20 at Wall-marts across the nation. If it were me, I would flush it first. Anyways, the first thing you should do is flush the transmission fluid out. Even better if you add an aux. cooler. There are a zillion posts on what to do when you buy one on this forum, look some up. It's a good idea on your engine to run mostly premium.
