My nav screen display informed me to contact my service person for the 15K service, so I telephoned the service department at my Lexus dealership today to find out about the 15K service. They told me that it was a comprehensive service that would involve, among other things, oil change, tire rotation, transmission/differential fluids, wiper blades, etc., and that it's going to cost around $470. I'm curious to learn what others have been paying for this service.

Thanks!

I recommend that you bring it to Toyota dealer for much less.

Check your manual on what it recommends, if you have a 04+ you do not need to change the transmition fluid, it has a lifetime fluid. Just be careful your dealer is not doing things that should not be done, thus costing you more money. I make a copy of the maintenance schedule and highlight what I want done when I bring it in and leave them a copy. I also make sure they write it on the service order and cancel out their automated service scuedule. Hope this helps.

I paid $370 for the 15k service two weeks ago.... But I'm in Chicago.....

Call around... Or as was suggested above, call the Toyota shops. I called them, got a price quote of $360..... For the $10 buck, I would rather deal with the Lexus dealer.... And get the loaner to drive...

Compare what Lexus suggests for your type of driving. I had the 5000 mile service performed every 5000 miles so far (18000 miles).

I just paid $480 plus tax for my 15k service at Desert Lexus. It looks like they replace the three wipers, add "fuel injection cleaner" to the gas tank, and replace two air filters automatically, whether or not the car needs it.

I've since emailed them requesting that for all future service, to only rotate the tires and change the oil. Anything else; call me first after inspection and determination that something indeeds needs to be replaced.

I had the local Toyota dealer change the oil for $34.95. I had the Lexus dealer perform the "clunk fix" which replaced the driveshaft so I didn't have to pay for that part of the service. I did the cabin filter myself and did the visual inspections myself. I don't expect the 30k service to cost much more (just replacing the air filter in addition to the same stuff done at 15k).
