  1. Just had it completed yesterday 7/22/15. My quote from local lexus dealer for my 2004 LS430 luxury package 90K service and new brakes front and rear plus tax was over $2200 plus extras. Had it done by my local mechanic shop for $1800 which included front & rear brake pads and rotors, drain & replace radiator coolant, cabin air filter, engine air filter, brake fluid drain & replace, oil & filter replace, and serpentine belt ($35) & idler pulley replace (Toyota parts & all OEM or better). Timing belt replace cost $370 for timing belt kit which includes timing belt, waterpump & gasket, belt tensioners & idler pulley (Toyota parts & all OEM or better) & 5.0 hours labor at $500. Transmission and rear differential fluids were perfect and not touched. I got and inspected all parts and found visible wear on the serpentine belt only. The brake pads were 80% worn rear and front 5/32"or better. The timing belt and waterpump bearing and gasket and all pulleys looked pristine. The cabin air filter was badly impacted with black dirt & engine air filter was OK. The rotors looked pristine. I got tire rotation and interior detailing gratis. My mechanic is in his early 40s and has over14 years with this shop.
