Recommended maintenance + PDF Manual for GX470...
I just bought a 2008 GX470 and I'm looking for recommendations on what exactly to do in terms of preventative maintenance right away. I know about all the fluids and filters, but curious about the "heater Ts" from the 100 series and if this has the same issues as well as anything else specific...

Post number 3 has the tech manuals as well.
new to the forum but a long time GX owner- 16 yrs owning an 05, several years on a 17 GX-460
mine has 358,000 on the clock and currently under going a make over BUT as far as maintenance goes I am very experienced.
I have changed my oil and filter every 5000 for life, still uses no oil and runs great
normal stuff such as plugs, PCV valve, diff and trans case fluids-every 100,000
tranny fluid and filter-50,000
Ac cabin filter-50,000
I had to do VC gaskets and such at about 250,000, they were leaking a bit.
both exhaust manifolds have been replaced over time
timing belt/W pump every 90,000
normal wear stuff such as brakes etc.
Overall the 470 is the best vehicle I've ever owned.
The wife used it as a daily driver until it reached 300,000 and I bought her a 460, the daughter took it over until recently and now its getting changed into my hunting rig.
358,000 and it still leaks no oil, burns none, drives good, shifts good.
Like I said, it's undergoing a rebirth but I just couldn't part with it.
