93LSOwner Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I think the reason that nobody replied is that nobody in LOC lives in NC. I live in High Point, NC. There is another expert "Tansupplyman" his from Greensboro, NC. He knows alot, try to pm him. I bought my Lexus last month but haven't taken it to a Lexus dealer. 1. 611 Edgewood St Kernersville, NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93LSOwner Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 1. Flow Lexus 611 Edgewood St Kernersville, NC This is the one that 1-800-25Lexus "1-800-255-3987" recommended me to go to. Check in the yellow pages at www.Yahoo.com there is the one named Johson Lexus. But I don't know if he performs 90k service. Here is the link to this yellow page.

90LS400Lexus Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I have not talked to my uncle yet to see where he takes my aunts Lexus over in Raleigh. I do know that they bought it at Johnson Lexus in Raleigh and that may be where they take it for service. I think it rarely needs anything, other than routine maintainence. As a side note- I do not live to far from the northwestern North Carolina state line. I live about 55 miles from Boone, NC- which is in the high country of upstate North Carolina. We are at a much lower elevation here in Tri-Cities, TN though- as we are on the other side of the spine of the mountain. In reply to 93LS's reply- I have heard that Flow Lexus was a good dealer. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1UZ-FE Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I work at Johnson Lexus here in Raleigh, NC. It is a superior dealer. I dont know about other dealers but at this lexus, we give you a free car wash with any service (inspection, oil change, anything!) I am a detail guy so i might end up washing your car.

1UZ-FE Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 also, i hope that u know that you will be paying BIG $$$. I just bought a 94 LS and got a pre-purchase inspection on it. They said that i needed a 90k service and that it would run me about $1,000 and all employees get half off parts and labor. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyview Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 I called Johnson Lexus and they wanted $1,400 for the 90K service which doesn't include a new water pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1UZ-FE Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 did you want to avoid the high costs of a dealer? if so, just look in a phone book for other small shops that might specialize in lexus. My car got its 90,000 mile service done at triangle impots on capital blvd right near the lexus dealership. They have a guy there who is a lexus tech. if u need more info on this shop, just tell me.

93LSOwner Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Well, since we are talking about Lexus shops in NC. Can some tell me if there is a small Lexus shop around High Point/Greensboro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyview Posted February 14, 2004 Author Share Posted February 14, 2004 Thanks for the lead ... I'll give Triange Imports a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF3 Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 2XLexV8 wanted to post this, but apparently he/she ended up reporting it to us(moderators). 2XLexV8 Replies: Have you asked about good Toyota service departments? I work at a small SC Toyota dealership with several dozen regular Lexus clients. We recently serviced an LS400, including starter (not contacts), tune up, and other routine items for around $1100. We use Lexus parts unless the part numbers are interchangeable. My wife's project car, '92 SC400 with 145K, goes in this week for water pump, timing belt, front main seal, valve cover seals, tune up, and transmission drain and refill. Most of the parts are from a Charlotte, NC Lexus dealership. The non-employee estimate is just under $1000, parts and labor. Lexus wants nearly $1000 for a normal 150K service, and an additional ~$300 for the water pump. Oil change: $23.95 vs $44.95. Coffee is free at both places.

93LSOwner Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Mine has 146,000 miles on it and just bought it. So, I never encountered a 90k service. What does it realy include, for such a high price for a service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
