Wei,

i guess your new gs is coming along nicely....

after talking to you lately on soem of your driving adventure, i feel you might consider get an oil-change, may be mobil-ONE. does tustin lexus offer mobil-1? if not, bring few quarts yourself, and ask them to pour it in for you.

or, if you have time this week, i can take you to LONGO, they offer mobil-1. and they will hand-wash your car afterwards, save you at least $10-15 for car wash.

unless you have some where else you go for maintenance.

let me know. ... nice new GS.

will

This is what I did

500 mile checkup (free @ dealer)
1000 mile oil change (self)
3000 mile service (free @dealer) switch to synthetic
7,500 mile service at dealer
Oil change half way (self)
on +7,500 mile service at dealer
trans oil change at dealer @15,000 miles [little early but maybe OK with Texas heat and Austin hills]
