How much should I expect to pay for this service? Is this something that needs to be done at a Lexus dealership or can any shop that does flushes like this handle the job?

Thanks.

 

Rather than preform maintenance tasks individually, I would recommend giving a list to a mechanic, they can do a coolant flush while doing another task at the same time....
also the more done at the same time may save you an hour or more of labor, they should also offer a discount, hence, will save you $$$.

 

I paid 140$ for a full flush at Lexus dealer back in March. That was in Denver, now I live in California so prob double here. I usually do drain and fills myself, but I was there getting tires and asked. When service writer told me 140, I went with it. Much lower than I would have thought and definitely worth it.

 

That is reasonable considering the fact that almost 10 Liters of coolant is required & they do not give away Toyota coolant.

 

For RX330 3MZ-FE Engine

1:Radiator drain and fill need ~7 Liter coolant only that means one gallon Toyota Lognlife coolant [~$30 free shipping] mix one gallon distill water are good enough.

2:Radiator drain and fill plus engine block drain will need around 9.5 Liter, but the Bank 2 drain plug almost unaccessible, I can live w/o open.
