Last Updated on June 2, 2021 by Christ
The Lexus GX is an SUV manufactured by Lexus since 2002 and mainly distributed in North America and Russia. On this occasion, I will try to explain to you how to reset the maintenance required light on the second generation of Lexus GX 460.
Today I turned on my car, and I get this on my diagnostic screen; it says maintenance required, which means it’s time for me to change the engine oil. So I already changed my oil go according to what Lexus recommends. I actually change it every thousand miles instead of 7,500 or 10,000 or whatever they prescribe; by using photosynthetic, I change mine at 5,000, so I always got to reset these things.
