2005 es 330
Hey, just inherited a 2005 ES330 from my grandma. Car has just under 47K miles, real gem. She is 96 and drove to and from the grocery store for 11 years. Some highway use but limited. Going to change fluids soon. What's recommended for oil/Trans. Not sure if it's sealed I have to look. Cars are not new to me, have a 1987 buick Grand national that I race. I'm pretty good with a wrench so I'm confident with this car. Any issues with this year?

No real issues with the car, especially with such low mileage. Some will tell you to change the water pump and timing belt because of age, but you are fine waiting on it for a bit. Oil is normal 5w-30, for ATF Toyota type 4 fluid only. It's not sealed and the drain bolt is a 10mm Allen if I remember correctly. If you plan on doing a drain and fill, you'll get out about 3-4 quarts
