Lexus Oil Change Service in Chicago, IL
Regularly changing the oil in your Lexus is arguably one of the most simple yet crucial ways to ensure its longevity. For this important service, trust the experienced technicians at McGrath Lexus of Chicago! Our dealership proudly represents the McGrath Imports dealer group.
The Importance of Oil Changes
There’s so much to explore in the Chicago metropolitan area, and for that, you need your trusty Lexus vehicle to work properly for dependable travels whenever you need. In particular, the health of the engine located underneath the hood is very important, because it powers the wheels to help you reach exciting destinations like 31st Street Beach. But the internal combustion process inherently puts the powertrain under a lot of stress due to all the friction and heat it creates. This is where oil comes in. It lubricates the engine internally so that all the parts move smoothly without getting too hot, preventing excessive wear and tear in the long run.
Warning Signs
If you’re not sure when your Lexus ES or RX is due for an oil change, here are some warning signs you can look out for to determine whether to make an appointment at our Service Department sooner rather than later. Oil degrades with age, losing its lubricative quality over time. Hence, when it needs to be replaced, excessive friction inside the engine can cause it to overheat. Moreover, internal parts won’t move as smoothly together, leading to knocking and other odd sounds. In the worst case scenario, the problem may be so severe that smoke begins to come out from under the hood! If this happens, you should visit our dealership for service right away.
Synthetic vs Conventional Oil
During your oil change service, you may be given the choice between conventional and synthetic options. The former is refined crude oil procured from nature, while the latter is a version engineered in laboratories. If you value accessibility and affordability, conventional oil is your best bet. Synthetic oil is pricier in comparison, but its chemical composition allows it to last longer, meaning you may be able to go longer between oil changes by using it. Whichever option you choose, you’ll be able to resume your cruises up and down Interstate 90 after our technicians are done changing the oil in your Lexus. We hope to see you soon at our convenient location!
How Often Should I Get an Oil Change for My Lexus?
- Oil changes are generally recommended every 5,000 to 10,000 miles!

Easy to work with
“ Been looking to upgrade to a newer vehicle for a long time. Would be first time buying something this new along with financing. Tom Hong helped me just about every step of the way into getting my new (to me) 4runner. Any questions I had I’d send an email to him and I’d get a response within minutes. Kept me up to date on price changes, appointments. Took the extra step of letting me inspect the underside of the vehicle to make sure it was clean which a lot of places I’ve been to didn’t let me do. Overall everyone is very friendly and easy to work with. thank you Tom for getting me into my new 4runner! ”

Easiest car buying experience
“ Easiest car buying experiences ever. Our sales specialist, Kevin Jovaisas, was awesome. He was very friendly, transparent with the price and rebates/discounts, very knowledgeable about the car and helped my wife with the Genesis app, asked us what we wanted in the deal, and made everything work for both parties. I would highly recommend Kevin and his team and would definitely refer them to my friends and family for future Hyundai or Genesis purchases. ”
Highly recommend
“ I went with my dad because he was in the market for a new car. He had a Mercedes Benz. He ended up getting a genesis gv 70 and the car is insanely beautiful. Much better quality and a cooler looking car compared to Mercedes. My man Kevin took the time to help us and go over the car. Buying a car is a stressful experience but Kevin made it a very relaxed environment. He called me the next day to see how everything was going which I certainly appreciated. He made it a very personable experience. The only downside in my opinion is the location of the dealer. It’s on a very busy street. And I initially didn’t know where I was able to park my car. Overall, I recommend going to this location and asking for Kevin if you are in the market for a new car. Thanks guys! ”

This is my place now
“ Came in on a whim and worked with Ryan Lewin. If not for the courtesy and professionalism I would have waited, shopped around, or just plain missed an awesome opportunity! Dealership was clean and well prepared for my visit. The process was smooth easy and most importantly quick and efficient! I’m leaving here without a complaint in the world and happy to own an Acura. This is my place now, this is where I’ll be coming for vehicles. Thanks McGrath Acura and thanks Ryan Lewin! ”
“ This would be my 2nd purchase at this location. When I tell you they don't mess around.... they don't mess around. Each time, I came in with what I wanted to spend and they pointed me right in that direction. No waiting around for them to get my hopes up for hours and then slam an amount down I didn't want to spend. THEY ARE THE BEST AROUND. I can not wait to see the new location. I WILL never go to another place to purchase a vehicle. ”
