whers best for service parts
Hi all,
Want to do a basic service on the car but don't know where's best to get the parts I need.
I want to change:- oil
Oil filter
Pollen filter
Spark plugs
Already changed belts but want to do these soon
Any help on brand and prive would be great
Thanks
i get my service items from my local motor factor they are blue print and not badly priced or you can get them off ebay.
I got my oils from opie, but as rabs say you will be able to get all that list from them
go to toyota!!the prices are cheaper than the factors
should be as all the lexus stuff comes in toyota boxes
Hi there,
Just been through the same myself. Local Lexus/Toyota dealership were competative on part prices, euro car parts very cheap but not sure of the quality.
Oil I got Mobil 3000 FE (from memory) 5 30 fully syth from Halfords as it was on sale at £29 for 5 litres, not 4 which is better.
If you need to mail order there is a lexus dealer that does mail order, google lexus parts and you will clearly see it.
Read an interesting report on oil filter quality, some are good, some very bad and of course you cannot tell from the outside so in general stick with the genuine parts.
Blueprint I have to say are naff too in my experience. Had a thermostat that simply didn't work properly and turned out to be more expensive than the genuine article.
Hope this helps.
