I think the build sheet is under My Vehicle Specs. You just need to explore the site a bit as some stuff is hidden behind somewhat cryptic titles.

Hello all,
I'm new to this forum as well as a recent owner of a new-to-me 2010 RX 350, so this may be a dumb question but...I've read that some folks run their synthetic motor oil 10,000 miles or only change the oil once a year, but they change the filter after 5000 miles...I've not done my first oil change on this car ( I plan to do my own rather than visit the dealer) but I've been changing my own oil for many many many years...I always change both the filter AND the oil...but how can you change the filter and NOT the oil?...
Thanks in advance

Hello! I signed up for this forum a couple of years ago but really haven't used it much. I owned a 2015 that is aging and I have been getting oil change frequencies that my dealership recommended every 5,000 miles or 3 months. I finding from this forum and other sources that the synthetic oil does not need to be changed so frequently. I am retired now and don't put alot of miles on my car and want to know what would be the best frequency for me but also, is the dealership still making that recommendation to be frugal, following old standard or just plain want me in there sooner than I need to be?

Thank you!
It actually is quite far but I decided not to go to the dealer any longer. The last event was being told that I needed a new drive belt which was fine 3 months prior. I took it elsewhere and they told me there was nothing wrong with it. That shop has just switched hands and they are starting to tell me I need to do a whole bunch of stuff now.
I will search again for someone I feel that I can trust.
Best Regards!
