An '08 Lexus GS350 with a 3.5 L V6 engine holds about 6.8 quarts of oil with the filter. The manual recommends using SAE 5W-30 for better fuel efficiency and cold weather starting. You can use SAE 10W-30 as an alternative, but it's best to switch back to 5W-30 next time. If you're unable to do the oil change yourself, you can always take your car to the dealer for maintenance. An oil change at the dealer usually costs between $120 and $160 for parts and labor.
For the 2008 Lexus GS 350, you'll need 6.8 Quarts of oil with the filter.
The 2008 Lexus GS350 requires 6.9 quarts of Mobil 1 or Valvoline full synthetic 5W30 oil. If you choose to change the oil yourself with a high-quality oil filter, it will cost you approximately $50. This includes $42 for two 5-quart jugs of oil and $8 for a Fram 20,000-mile full synthetic filter. Additional tools needed for the job, like a jack and jack stands, oil catcher, socket wrench set, and a 64mm oil filter removal cup, are essential for every DIY enthusiast to have in their toolbox. Just a fun fact!
