walkingon2001 Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 I have a 1994 ES300 with 135k miles 1. What should I get done for 135k miles? 2. My car jerks/jumps up then down when shifted from parking to reverse, what is the problem? Last major service was done at 118k miles in 2006, I called, each dealer quote me differently. For $450 at Fremont, CA. This is what I'm getting. Replace engine oil and filter Replace EFI air intake filter Replace transmission fluid Replace differential fluid Inspect engine coolant Inspect battery electrolyte Inspect power steering fluid Inspect and adjust handbrake Balance front tires Inspect tires and set pressures Inspect brake pads and rotors Rotate tires Inspect undercarriage Inspect alternator drive belt Lubricate chassis and hinges Inspect wiper blades Inspect and fill washer fluid Inspect all lights Add fuel treatment to clean out the fuel injectors Complimentary car wash What are some of the things that's actually needed? thanks. =]
camlex Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 we don't know what service you did in past. can't help. inspect Dogbone mount.
busoptr Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 I have a 94 also, you should check your motor mounts or transmission mounts with that park to reverse issue jerking. Also check your valve cover gaskets for seepage or leaks. The dogbone mount is real easy to replace. You can buy a dog bone mount at pep boys for $ 26.00.

Most of those you can easily do yourself. Inspect wiper blades, PS & washer fluid? And why do they only suggest to balance the front tires only & after do a tire rotation? Also, isn't the diif fluid just tranny fluid anyway? When you do a drain & fill on your tranny & not a seperate fluid? I could be wrong however because of the model year. When was the last time you had a complete tune up on the car? Tell them for that price, you will bring all the necessary parts to them to install. ;)
mburnickas Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Lexusfreak- You can't get mad at the guy on the price since that is 100% typical Lexus prices. Lexus LOVES the good-old inspect deal...It is free money! But he is paying normal prices; $450 for about $100 worth of material..but he gets a free hack wash job too!
