This beast consumes oil at the rate of 6 quarts per oil change interval. (The Lexus recommended 10,000 miles or 12 months). This is acceptable to Lexus but just be warned that you have to stay on top of the oil level on this jewel or else it will seize the engine. So this will always be on your mind while driving this car... Thanks Lexus. Just something to think about when purchasing your next Lexus.
