This is an e-mail i got from Lexus Glasgow, regarding the 80,000 miles service.

Good Morning Mr Hutchison, Apologies for the delay in responding to your e-mail. The current cost of the 80k service inclusive of parts/labour and VAT is £175.00. Dependant on age/mileage the brake fluid and coolant may be due for renewal (coolant is changed every 4yrs/40k whichever first & brake fluid every 2 yrs from 1st date of reg). The costs respectively are £72.85 & £61.10 inclusive of VAT. For your info. the timing belt should be changed every 6yrs/100k whichever 1st. We can also provide courtesy cars or a collection/delivery service if required, usually about 4/5 working days noticed required for these), a normal booking without these requirements can be taken within 2 days. If you wish to confirm a booking, please do not hesitate to contact me. RegardsMark Mark Montgomerie

That's why i goto independant garage and provide my own bits. Just found a new garage right next to where i work in this new industrial estate and they do all cars, modding, developments etc. Right up my street this (no pun intended). Will try them out. I'm due a 80k service too, so i think i will get them to do the following :-

Needed.

Brake fluids (good time to install goodridge braided brake lines)

Coolant

Engine Oil + Oil filter

Gearbox Oil

Diff Oil? (need advice if it should be changed at 80k)

Check overall condition for wear and tear etc

Not Needed.

Spark plugs (already got denso plugs in, think they are long life ones)

Air filters (got induction kit)

Pollen filter (do this myself)

Anyone got anything else to add that i should change?

Here's a service schedule from Lexus :

Bear in mind it's kms not miles shown on it. They seem to change the diff oil at every other service.
