Difference between Lexus and Toyota Oil and Filter Change
Today, I took my RX330 to Oil and Filter change at a local Toyota dealership. They said they put Toyota's semi-synthetic oil and they stated 5 qts. I know some people here says that it needs more than 5 qts, if so, how much qts of oil does RX330 need?
Also they replaced the oil filter with Toyota's brand oil filter (90915-YZZG1) Made in USA. Is it okay?
They also checked everything inside (including battery, filters, etc). + washed the car.
All of these cost me $32 vs. if I were to take to Lexus, it'll cost me ~$60.
But what procedures does the Lexus dealer do when you take your car to the service for oil/filter change vs. above Toyota service?
Thanks in advance for your reply.

Nothing different. Just paying extra for the "L." And you get Starbucks coffee, free.

Toyota Oil Change
I just had my first oil change in my 350. Using Mobil One. Lexus Of Riverside wanted 160.00. I paid the local Toyota dealer 71.00.
I use to take my RX300 to Walmart. And they would charge 45.00. I tried to take it there this time. But they didnt have the filter for a 350.

$38 is not bad at all for a Lexus dealer. How come they vary a lot? Tells you some dealers are ready to gouge you every chance they get.

If the Lexus dealers were even in the same ballpark for service charges, I think a lot of us would prefer to get services done at the dealerships. However, I am not willing to spend $150 for an oil change and tire rotation even with the "free" wash and loaner.
