2012 Lexus LFA Owners Manual - Page 588

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE BASICS Maintenance Interval Lexus recommends that you obtain maintenance for your vehicle every 12 months or 6,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Follow All Recommendations Make sure to follow all maintenance recommendations for the LFA, including: Engine Oil and Filters Replace engine oil and oil filters at 24 months, or at 6,000 miles, or when the "OIL MAINTENANCE REQUIRED" message is displayed on the meter, whichever comes first. If engine oil needs replacement, replace with SAE 5W-50 Mobil 1. If this oil is not available, another oil of equivalent quality may be used. If an alternate oil is used, do not start the engine if the engine coolant or oil temperature is below 5° F (-15° C), and do not drive the vehicle under extreme load conditions. When engine oil and oil filters are replaced, reset oil-maintenance display reminder. Brake Pads Replace brake pads when a minimum thickness of 2.0 mm is measured or when "BRAKE PAD WEAR" is displayed on the meter, whichever occurs first. Replace parking brake pads when a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm is measured. Ensuring That All Recommended Maintenance is Performed Recommended maintenance by interval is detailed in the maintenance schedule on pages 52-71. This maintenance includes: • General maintenance (performed at every service interval; see page 49) • Interval-specific maintenance (performed at the time or mileage interval indicated, whichever occurs first; see page 50) • Road test (performed at every service interval; see page 51) MAINTENANCE 48 • All additional maintenance items for your current time/mileage interval How to Use the Maintenance Schedule
