Good Morning guys,

The wife traded in her 2005 Ford Escape for an 08 RX350. Let me just say that it was QUITE the upgrade...this car is very nice! It has 85000 mikes on it but Lexus/Toyota has a good reputation so it should last us a while! I just bought a 2012 Toyota Tundra 5.7 CrewMax so we won't be car shopping for a loooooong time.

Do these things take a K&N air filter ok? I know some cars are a bit sensitive when it comes to messing with the air flow. Any other cheap mods that any of you guys could recommend would be great!!

Thanks very much in advance

It's the AWD 3.5 liter in a sweet sage green color...I can't remember what they call it. Pics to come once the wife gets home.

Hello,
I don't have the K&N filter but I added the Weapon R CAI; I love it and issues with MAF or other engine codes.

Thanks! I'll look into that

welcome to CL.....if you use K&N just make sure you dont over oiled the filter......

Welcome to CL, as stated above if you do use one ease up on the oil. There are filters out there that don't require oiling. That might be a better route.

Welcome to the forum, Gruvn350.

I am sure you will find this a welcome spot to visit. Many questions are answered here every day and first time owners of the RX always have questions. I would recommend you visit Lexus.com and register the vehicle there. This will give you info on that vehicle's service records, recalls completed and user manuals if you didn't get them with the vehicle.

You are approaching the 90k mile service which is costly but will give you a complete rundown on the condition of the vehicle. If you are inclined to DIY or have a local mechanic you can get the cost down. Toyota will also perform most service items for less than the Lexus dealership if you are interested in saving money.

Please search the forum and also take advantage of the special discounts and offers from our supporting vendors.

Welcome to Club Lexus and I hope you visit often.
