For optimal performance, it is recommended to use 5w-30 oil for the Lexus IS350 and change it every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Failing to replace the oil may lead to engine issues, as high-quality oil is essential for smooth engine operation. Neglecting to maintain the oil can result in engine failure, characterized by a burning smell. It is crucial to address any signs of engine trouble promptly to prevent potential catastrophic events like an explosion. Additionally, poor gas mileage or engine knocking noises may also indicate oil-related problems.

    According to my manual, I need to use 0W-20 oil. I'll double-check that. I recently purchased an IS 350 F Sport, and its engine doesn't have a turbo.
