So, my 2011 RR is in with Craig getting gearbox oil and filter change and a number of other preventative maintenance items. Craig said he'll look over the car too as it's new to me, hopefully the bill won't be too horrendous!
Keeping everything crossed for a good report and a better drive home once it has fresh fluids and a check over.
Anything that anyone would recommend doing at those miles?
Thanks

It's in very safe hands, am sure Craig will make it purrrrr Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........

That mileage in that period of time, I imagine it will run like clockwork....

Much better off with that one, than a rarely used low miler, modern engines don't like being left idle...

Don't forget to give it the beans for 20mins every week, best bit of maintenance you can do...

Say Hi to Craig for me.... Pete

You bored of the Lexus forum already Pete  Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........

It does run well, the precious owner bought it new and it's just sat in top gear on the motorways which is perfect for modern engines. Getting new fluids so it's ready for another 131k! It's in great condition too, only minimal wear and a handful of stone chips which I guess is the advantage of being higher up!

Any suggestions on what I'd be wise to get replaced at that mileage? Does anyone have a higher mileage one?!

They just talk about polishing... one guy was moaning like he had an old LS400 and in 6 years it cost him £38 in repairs...!!!!! then the exhaust got a hole in it (20years old) and he had been quoted £300 to fix it... He finally got it done for £40 but still moaned....

It's like a different world...  Pete

get Craig to change the front and rear diff oils and transfer box oil...

^^^I was going to suggest that, you will be glad you have and you will know it has been done. the oil are not cheap per liter but you only use a small amount so this is realy something worth doing.

Enjoy you new pride and joy - and yes we expect pics post visit  l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l
