Othewise routine maintenance, Mobil1 via Lexus dealership. Lots of recalls of course.

Year - Model: 2006 IS350
Package: Luxury
Miles: 125,000
Beside regular maintenance, what has been broken and repaired?
- Dash was replaced twice by first owner in 2007. Fuel Pump died at 120,000. That was a fun $1300 mid roadtrip fix... Also, the dealers were hoarding fuel pumps and there were only 18 in the US, so I had to go with an aftermarket replacement.

- 2006 IS350 RWD
- 105k Miles
- Maintenance - 100k Tune Up+ (Water pump, coolant flush, oil change, oem to blitz filter, cabin filter change, spark plugs changed, and wipers)
So far still running strong just concerned about the transmission failure soon, semi downshifts and upshifts a bit aggressive and have already done the battery reset. Crossing fingers, I hope Lexus does a transmission recall due to the wear and tear on a "sealed" transmission.

07 IS350
Luxury package
130K
just did a suspension overhaul. the only thing that needs to be replaced now is the rear knuckle assembly. It has a bushing/bearing that connects to the lower control arm. Those are shot and that is what is making my car have little bounces when driving. i tried to replace just the bushing itself, but its a PITA. might just have to buy the whole new assembly.
engine is good!
