My car has just about done 10k since last service. Now I know its due a cam-belt change asap. But need to give it an oil change, and going to buy a K+N filter too. But do I need to change spark plugs? They were done with last service.

How difficult is an oil change??

Yeah thats spot on, got a couple of questions though, if you don't mind.
Is it worth using engine flush to clean the engine before new oil goes in? And would it matter if I did the change on a hill??? Can use a drive if needed, but it won't be outside my house (so won't have all my tools handy)

nope i would never use engine flush,the lexus engine runs really clean i would only recomend this if the oil in your car was like tar!!to be honest you'd be better on a level surface but you could do the oil and filter change on the hill and then drive to a level surface and check.........................
i would do it on the drive though as for tools all you need is a jack,14mm spanner and a oil filter removal tool.......should take you no longer than 15mins but remember to run the car for approx 10mins to warm up the oil,it comes out faster....
