Thank you. I looked at the owners manual, and it is the check engine light. I have 88K miles, so it could be a warning for 90K service. I live in Sacramento, and do not relish a day in Milpitas, but I need to get quotes to get that done.
Do you know whether the 90K service prompts a Check Engine icon?

I know in the newer models a service light comes on, not the check engine. The check engine may mean you need some additional work in addition to the 90k service.
Too bad you live far away, as Exact would diagnose the check engine for free, whereas other places will probably commit you to the repair job and not give free diagnosis and a quote. By the time you have a diagnosis, they already have you signed up for the job and just ask for your OK to move forward with the work. It's difficult to tell them at that point that you want to shop around.
Your best bet is to call Sandy & John at Exact, tell them you are in SAC but referred by ClubLexus. They can atleast quote you the 90k service and DO NOTE their service includes a spark plug change that the dealers don't include. That's got to be atleast an extra $100 to the cost. Highly recommended to change plugs, but you can option not to do it. If you need a loaner car, they can set you up with Enterprise rental.
If you go to the dealer they loan a car for free or so you think. Get the quote from Exact on the 90k and add the cost of rental car and it should still be significantly less than the dealer.
We have local members in SAC, but so far they haven't recommended any local shops, some of them do come to Milpitas.
If you choose to do business in your local area, let us know who you go to and what they charge, but please do get a quote from Exact as the savings may be worth it to you to come down.

Call my good friend Teo at Aqua Boys Marine (yes they do cars too) @ 916-397-0900. Tell them Craig told you to contact him regarding. He has done all work on all the family cars-and most importantly, located in Sac., W.Sac to be EXACT (got pun? )

I just spoke with Exact today and they said check engine is not 90 k maintenance. Also to clarify, they will waive diagnostic fee if you do the 90k service. Unfortunately too many people come by for free diag. and then do the fix themselves, so they now will charge for diag alone and not charge if you decide to do the 90k work. Oh well.

Exact Labor Charges Control Arm bushings
Hi folks:
How much does Exact Motorsport charge to put in daizen control arm bushings into my 1992 LS400. I figured that by now, they would have pretty much mastered the technique and perhaps found an easy way to put it in.

An LS400 might be different from a GS bushing install in the number of bushings and degree of difficulty. I know the SC is quite different in bushing set up than the GS.
You should just give Sandy a call and then you could tell us what they charge for the LS.

Just need to make some clarification here.
I held a meet 2 weeks ago and those who attended received a 20% discount coupon. That discount was available ONLY to those who attended the meet and it does not expire until July 31.
Almost every major meet I hold this year we will give out discount coupons, raffle prizes, etc.
The discount coupons all have different expirations and I have given Exact discounts more than once this year so there are two expiration dates from them.
There will be some type of discount/raffle prizes given out at the upcoming BOS meet as well, not to mention Double Rapid Rewards points good towards the BIG GRAND PRIZES awarded at the EOS meet later this year.

Is Exact capable? 20x11.5 rim, tire dismount
I was wondering if anyone had experience with Exact with regards to dismounting a really wide rim. 20 x 11.5 in, with a stretch of 275/30. I believe rims this wide require a special machine.
Thanks
Thanks

They did my 20 x 11 rim with a 295/25. I wouldn't think a half inch wider will be much of a difference.
Just call Sandy to be sure.
