EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS
MAINTENANCE
Scheduled Maintenance Log72
Timing Chain
The timing chain requires no periodic
inspection.
Tire-Pressure Warning Sensors
A tire-pressure sensor is mounted on
each full-size wheel. These sensors
do not require periodic maintenance.
When a sensor’s long-life lithium bat-
tery becomes discharged, the battery
should be replaced by a qualified
technician following procedures in
Lexus service and repair publications.
Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated according
to the instructions in your Owner’s
Manual. When rotating tires, check
tire pressure and check tires for dam-
age and uneven wear. If the spare is
not rotated, check the condition and
pressure of the spare.
Transfer Case Oil
Check for correct oil level and
inspect each component for signs of
leakage. If you discover any leakage,
have it repaired immediately by a
qualified technician. For correct oil,
refer to your Owner’s Manual.
Transmission
The transmission and transmission
fluid are a completely sealed unit.
Therefore, periodic checks and
replacement of the transmission fluid
are not required, and there is no dip-
stick on the transmission. Any repairs
that require adding or replacing fluid
should be performed by a qualified
technician following precedures in
Lexus service and repair publications.
