I purchased a 2011 lx about 3 weeks ago. Dealer did fluids/oil change before I bought it. Oil service light came on last week at about 5k. Truck is at +6k from purchase now. Should I change the oil already? It still looks clean, and it’s only been a couple weeks. What is a reasonable mileage number for regular changes, 5k seems very low. I’m also considering changing to Mobil one extended for the next change. Pros/cons?
Final sqod for today. Truck had new tires, but with 6k on them already I’m wondering at what mileage should I rotate?
Edit: Truck has 176k miles on it.

I change my engine oil every 5k in my LC. No exceptions. I also rotate the tires every interval.
I never thought much about the the info display that shows the position of the front wheels. But now that it has stopped appearing, its bugging me. Anyone know how to make it appear ? 2015 LC btw.
on a '15LX, you keep pressing the disp button on the steering wheel until it comes back....?
Looking at wheels for my rig and like the Method 310's

in 18" the only 5 luck option is the 150 PCD.. guessing that's the right 1 to suit the LX/LC200's? Will I need to run a spacer with them or are they the right offset that I can just put them on without any shenanigans?

5x150 is the correct bolt pattern.
110.5mm center bore is technically .5mm too big (stock is 110mm). You'll be lug-centric vs hub centric (this is how i run now).
the website says those methods are 18mm offset, but the stock offset is +60mm

Nice, I'll use that for my calcs..
Its also related to parking assist sensors being on. Somehow I had bumped the button and turned off the parking assist. Once that was back on, the tire angle display came back, either by selecting with the Disp button, or by just getting close enuf to something for the parking sensors to kick in.

I want to change to front turn signal lights to LEDs.
I don't see a way to access the bulb. Do I have to remove the entire headlight housing to access it?

You access them through the wheel wells. After removing a couple screws holding the fender liners, you can reach up in there and access the bulbs.
copy thanks. Will give it a try.
What's everyone's favorite conditioner for the early-run LC seats? My '11's interior (grey) is in great condition, and I'd like to keep it that way. I don't want any re-coloring or color restoration - just a recommendation on a conditioner others have had good experiences with.
I'm a big fan of Leather Honey. However, I don't know if it's the best choice for the seats, since I haven't found a definitive answer yet on whether the LC seats are actually genuine leather or not.

Did you have to remove the wheel to make room to remove the fender liner? Thanks!
The seating surfaces are leather, sides/back aren't.

Good question. I don't really remember whether I removed the wheels or not. I may have but you could probably turn the wheel in all the way and that should give you enough room to work. There's actually instructions in the owner's manual about how to change those bulbs. You may want to check there for more information.
