Just wondering if anyone has ever changed the oil themselves on an IS200..??

The car is nearing the 4 year mark - so I figured its time to pull out "ye ol spanner..."

whats the go with removing all the plastic underneath and I cant seem to located the oil filter... is it hidden by lexus to discourage us cheap drivers who buy nice cars but no longer need the $400.00 / 10,000k service... for an oil change and a few ticks on a sheet of paper...

Dont get me wrong - Lexus does a great job every time !

Just curious to know ...

Well, yes I've done mine, but it's a 3SGE......

Just another Toyota really, filter will be hidden somewhere under manifold, and you will prob need a hammer and screwdriver to start it turning, if you don't have the fancy gripping tool to rotate it.

Mind the mess on the garage floor...

keith :P
