My apologies. I didn’t realized I had chased a link away from the RX350 (2023-2025) forum. RXs only get one free oil change at 10k. I guess our engines don’t make metal like an IS does. 🙂
Cheers.
Well that explains a lot! Yeah I've also noticed this website does weird things.
The 5k mile oil changes on the IS500 have more to do with it being a high performance engine that operates under a lot of stress and generates high temperatures, potentially degrading the oil faster. It has nothing to do with metal shavings.
