wow. I'm at 77k. Tell us about the maintenance and any repairs you've had at 205k.Originally Posted by prestonswife
Anyone have more miles on their es350 than me? I am currently at 205k miles, it's a 2019.
Oil changes every 10k miles until i reached well over 100k . Now I go every 5k. I've done all maintenance suggested at certain mileage, such as coolant flushes, transmission flushes, spark plug changes, drive belt replacement, etc. Haven't had any repairs needed. I have my car serviced at a Toyota dealership with same service advisor, every time.
200,000 miles and running strong is surely why Lexus vehicles command a premium on the used car market.

I now have my first lexus but I have had a few toyotas. Same deal. The Corolla we had went over 200,000 and had a camry for 25 years. Everyone in my family had it at some point and it was still going when we sold it. I assume my Lexus will be just as good......Hondas are probably right up there too. And I have a 12 year old acura that has never had a repair. These are all good cars.

Sadly my Audi Q5 2016 passed out at exactly 100k mile on it. It had about 30k USD in repairs over time on it. I don't understand how people rave about german cars. I had a Toyota solar for 15 years and when I sold it, it had about 80k miles on it. A person was purchasing the car for his daughter and was surprised how well the car was working.Originally Posted by prestonswife

I now have the 2023 ES 350 and am kinda itching to get a tesla model 3 at least

I bought a 1998 GS400 in 2007 with 173Kkm In 2021 I sold it with about 540Kkm still running geat. Also had a 1992 Cressida with close to 600Kkm when I sold it still running. Sold our 2005 Sienna two years ago after owning for 14 years. That van hardly needed anything more than oil changes and brakes - unbelievably reliable and worryfree. Oh, and also had one of those Camrys forever too. Almost everytime I am in the market or a new car I am always intrigued by thought of buying a high end BMW or Audi but always settle back on old reliable Toyota/Lexus. I am fully expecting my 2022 UL ES300h to run several hundred thousand km. I'm up to 40Kkm

Wow OP, that is a lot miles. I thought my 80 mile per day commute was a lot, but jeesh. How is the interior holding up? Squeaks, rattles? Seat condition?

Good job at maintaining. You should create a spreadsheet of all your maintenance items listed there, for other members to follow. For example, how often do you change the transmission fluid, drive belts, and coolants. Do you change the transmission filter too.Originally Posted by prestonswife

I agree that 5k is better than 10k, I am glad you switched that out.
