2015 LX with 110k on the clock. decent maintenance records. scheduled to hit a toyota dealer on Friday and have the following listed:
front and rear diff fluid change.
xfer case fluid change
transmission flush and new filter
serpentine belt with tensioner
flush radiator and new anti freeze
spark plugs
air filter
water pump and thermostat

radiator hoses look good, also asked for inspection. vehicle is awesome, rides great. is there and end date for suspension to look at replacement with the AHC system? I dont do extreme stuff anymore, but live on a dirt road off a dirt road now in rural arkansas and hit trails occasionally. not to mention the roads are usually rutted up from logging activity.

thanks for any assistance. been without LC for a few years. previously owned a few 80 series, RJ77, PZJ75, FJ60 and thousands of miles in 100 series and 200 series for work in middle east.
 
Probably fine at your mileage, but as a "while you're in there" I'd have the idler pulley also replaced with the belt and tensioner. It's a cheap part and adds like 60 seconds to the job so might as well IMO. However my original only just barely started making noises at 170k miles so you're also probably fine for a while if you don't want to.

If AHC fluid hasn't been replaced I'd consider having them replace the fluid also. I'm assuming with it having good maintenance history some things have been left off this list because they've been done recently. (oil change, brakes/fluid, etc).
 
You are probably getting towards the point of considering AHC accumulator replacement. It's a DIY job for a shade tree mechanic, and much more cost effective to DIY than to have a dealership perform. AHC fluid change is part and parcel.

Make sure you put gas in and press the skinny pedal!
 
I would add cabin filter, but do it yourself. Many on here have had dealers break the HVAC recirc/fresh mechanism by failing to put the system in recirculate before accessing the filter.
 
Might as well replace the fan support bracket\bearing too (16380-38010)

Clean the sunroof drains
Can you shift into 4lo and activate the center diff lock?
