Ignore "krava's" reply, he's obviously drunk and can't type.
NO, you do not need to go to Lexus dealer to change oil or do ANY other maintenance. I usually go to a Toyota dealer for a $27 oil change and other maintenance. Same parts and same training. But you can take your car anywhere you want.

I trust my serivce advisor and the mechanic, and I always bring 2 jugs of 5 quarts Mobil 1 to the dealership, and they always returned the unused back!!! Besides, the service bay is opened to the customers, so I am able to see how they work on my toys!!!
