2002 Gs300 Service Schedule

[iffy]

Can anyone please help with the service schedule on this car?

I would also like to know what extra maintenance should be carried out on this car in terms of diff oil and gearbox oil which I believe is a fill for life unit?

Go here and fill in your car age/type/mileage details. It's a USA site but the key maintenance details are little/no different. Worth a nose round the site in any case........

Thanks for the info.

Am I right in thinking that the gearbox and diff oil is not to be changed? I don't really believe in fill for life fluids. I have an e46 as well that gets a fluid change every 30000 miles or so.

It's a pleasure and thanks for your thank you.

Like you I don't believe in fill for life fluids - I changed my SC430 diff oil recently at 90k; looked ok but (v small) bits of metal stuck to the magnet suggest never done before - they are best out imo. Will do the same for the transmission later this year.

On my GS the diff oil will be changed at the 6 year service in October. My auto box is ECVT (so no gear change so faster response:) ) not sure what that needs but I always lean towards change - nothing lasts for ever......
