Default Should I buy ECP

I bought a 2015 brand new RX350 in Calgary Canada. Should I buy ECP?

The dealer said if I buy it 31 days before my vehicle registration day. It will include oil and filter program (includes 8 oil filter services and 1 tire rotation) which costs $1400. I need to pay $3910 for 96/120.

ALuke. Congrats on your RX. Take a look at this thread to see if extending the warranty is worth it. There's many comments in there already for both sides. For maintenance, I know you have to change the oil more frequently than owners in the US. The cost is generally about $100 here. With rotation it jumps up to about $150. I've paid much less for both. It's probably a few dollars more by you. Ask the dealer what they charge for these services and factor in how long you plan on keeping the RX. Eight oil changes seems like a lot. I've had my 450h for six years and only had six oil changes and 12 tire rotations.

I have both a 04 and 13 RX. Both have been extremely reliable Oil changes are a snap with the new filters being more accessible. Invest the $$$ in your 401 and enjoy the better value
