Question Chasis Lubrication

This video does not apply to the ES right ? because ES has no lube points right ?
So what do you do for maintenance, spray the suspension components with silicone spray ?

There are no grease fittings. Best thing is to inspect for torn boots around steering and suspension parts and look for grease leakage or leaking shocks/struts or steering rack etc. Spraying Silicone may not do much or last very long. It may help protect the rubber boots on the ball joints, tie rod ends etc.
Spraying the door hinges, trunk and hood hinges and hood cable lock area under the hood with lithium grease or silicone will help keep them operating smoothly. Also keep the sunroof tracks clean and spray parts of it with silicone.
