07lexgs350 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Motor seems to need plugs every 10k miles. Lexus did oil consumption test and said it uses an average amount of oil for the miles but I think it uses abkut a quart every 1200 which seems like a lot. Is there anything I can do to extend the life of the motor before I have to replace it? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenore Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I would get the valve stem seals replaced if they are the oil issue. They should have been able to tell you where the problem was occurring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samsonn25 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 High mileage synthetic oil like from Mobile 1 helps with the leaks becasue they added chemicals that actually swell up the seals and reduce the leaking, but some say the added sulfur will clog the cats.
