Love turtle wax ice wax spray. Detail shops are a scam the technology has gone way beyond needing them 😜

LX570/Landcruiser uses a special 75 way oil in the transfer case real expensive stuff 80 bucks later if you go off road dusty dirty roads consistently then they consider that severe service and recommend a 30,000 mile transfer case chain if you tow trailers and boats they recommend a 30,000 mile...

Thanks for the responses. I'll pass your wisdom on to the LC/LX guys

Also no problem Shown from oil analysis from these members

Several members of the Land Cruiser forum have noticed white milky substance in there oil fill cap. Normally see it with cold temperatures short trips but others don’t see this happening. typically it’s 0W 20 synthetic any thoughts would be appreciated

They use Kendall 0w20. They might’ve taken the sample right when they opened it up and drain the oil and maybe the titanium more of it settles to the bottom of the pan that’s only reason I could think there be 84 ppm. The more the titanium the merrier that’s not a problem in my book everything...

Lexus calls it sequential multi port? Cost more but it’s better you don’t have your valves carboning up like you do on direct injection

Since Lexus 5.7 L engine uses both direct and port injection it doesn’t have the carbon problems that direct injected engines do that’s why Toyota engines last forever they engineer more for longevity and durability.

Looks like the titanium is a good thing and since I change my oil/filter every 5000 miles I’m not too concerned about any problem. Looks like the dealer must be using Castrol 0W 20 that has the titanium which is a good thing

Actually it’s both port and direct injected

I'll probably extend the OCI after a couple of years when I no longer get free oil/filter changes from my Lexus dealer. It won't be 10k miles but maybe 7.5k miles. I also wondered where the ti came from??
