I'd recommend Red Sun Auto Repair in Rocklin. They did my pre-purchase inspection, were reasonable, and I'll be going there next time I need something. They've got a ton of Lexus knowledge and were great to work with. Don't take my word for it though. Perfect Yelp reviews on the place might help you too.

I'll happily do your head gaskets had a reasonable price, I'm down in Stockton. I can tow your car down.

Default Good indy shop

There's Japan Motors in West Sacramento (916-372-0500). Owner is a very competent certified Lexus Master Mechanic. Inspected my car and took the time to show me (while car was on lift) exactly what needed to done and why. No Lexus dealer will do this. Dealer quote to do lower castor bushings was 1k. Japan Motors quote was 550 w/ alignment. Motor mounts 680. Super clean shop and nice low key people. Very pleased to find a good reasonably priced alternative to dealer service.
