A3/B4? That is an awesome report.

I will post the obligatory warning that this engine has a timing belt which has a 90K change interval. Hopefully it has been done; my friend went to 120K prior to changing the one on her Tundra.

 

[JimKo]

Thanks, yes I do know that the timing belt was changed at 88K miles.

That makes it a known unknown; where's Rumsfeld?

 

[JimKo]

You're right. That is the only repair receipt that was inside the owners manual book. It sure makes that unknown known

if any work was done at a lexus dealership, you can create an account on lexus.com and see if any was done.

Great oil and report. GC is still a PAO based oil fwiw.

 

[Boss302fan]

That is one of the best engines ever made... Nice report.

Did you change idlers?
Absolutely required on older subarus

Wow. That reads like a VOA.
