Default Maintenance

I have 14 years and 43,500 miles on my 2007 RX. Except for the obvious maintenance, eg, tires, brakes, oil changes, the only problem I've had is a failed water pump at about 42,000 miles.

What I'm curious about and would appreciate some advice about is what long term service is critical to have done at this time.

Thanks

Other than fluid changes for Trans, Rear Diff, Transfer Case, Power Steering, and Brakes, I can't think of anything else.

Wow, I thought my 84,000 on a 2008 was low miles. These are great dependable SUVs. The only thing I’ve had besides normal maintenance is a steering u joint that locked up.

I thought I had the last 2nd gen RX with less than 50K miles but I guess not.
