Oil change

Being that I changed my oil at 50k miles is the 55k oil change needed? I know full synthetic motor oil can last a long time so after 5k miles it should still be good right?

Not needed unless you want to.

Not really.. if you're using the 0W20 Toyota oil then they specifically say you don't have to do it until 10k miles later.

Lexus vehicles in which 0W-20 synthetic engine oil is required have been approved for extended oil and filter change intervals of 10,000-miles/12-months, whichever occurs first.
