I have had a few vehicles with Walmart only GY tires and they all performed well. The vehicles I had them on were all used as daily drivers only

08 Lexus RX350 144k miles pan drop, it appears fa Tory filter was replaced in the past as it’s not OEM, old pan gasket was brittle Out: Fltran filter, mix of unknown fluid and Valvoline extended ATF In: Beck Arney filter, Valvoline extended ATF

08 Lexus rx350 144k miles, drain and fill Out: pink coolant In: Peak concentrate pink, distilled water approx 50/50

Went to Walmart this morning in San Diego area, no clearance filters at all

I would run synthetic 5 or 10w30 if the builder approves

Supertech full syn 5w30

I have flushed a few Toyota cooling systems and used prestone all makes all models antifreeze. They all ran like normal, no leaks, no problems. It’s best if you stick w OEM coolant so you don’t have to worry about compatibility

You’re right about splitting hairs. They are all about the same price so pick the one you like best. If it was me, I would roll w the tiger paws. Kumho performed fine on my daily driver commuter cars, not a fan of falken or Summis, only had experience w Toyo all terrains and they were fine

My GF’s 2021 Lexus GX460 Out: Stock OEM Dunlop AT23, balding at less than 25k miles, not a fan In: Kumho Crugen HP71 (under $1100 for all 4 installed, out the door)

Sorry you have to do the work again. All the felpro gaskets I used on Toyota vehicles have been good to go.

On my daughters 08 Lexus rx350, I did a drain and fill only at 143k miles. At 150k I will drop the pan, replace filter and fill w new fluid. That will be good until well after 200k

Any of those oils would be good, including 10w30.

This was not an option. The ducting is still there, I just had to cut open the area where there was suppose to be the access panel. There are DIY vids online for gmt800
