your owners manual ha maintenance schedule --dont have do online search for it usually can find a free download -- if want a service / repair manual auto stores online search

To reset "Maintenance Notice" on the display, turn the ignition key to ON, with engine off. Select the "Maintenance Schedule' key by using the button to right or left. Using the button select the "Reset" key and push the "Enter" button.

Hi Gary,

There is a small dilema here. The Owner's Manual for your Lincoln says to refer to the Maintenance schedule to find the proper interval for replacing your transmission fluid. Here is where the problem arises: The Maintenance schedule published for your vehicle says to replace the transmission fluid at 30,000 mile intervals for several transmission models. Then it "excepts" the models that are not lsted by transmission model number in the preceeding text - yours is not listed.

Then, when I go to the service manual and search by your vehicle (2000 Lincoln LS) it says to replace the transmission fluid at 30,000 mile intervals without any exceptions.

Here is what I recommend to my customers:

CHECK the fluid every 30,000 miles and REPLACE the fluid and filter every 60,000 miles. I have found that this works for almost every make and model out there. I have several customers with over 300,000 miles on their cars that have never had transmission overhauls.

there is no actual symptoms to timing belt replacement, the only thing is to follow the maintenance schedule from manufacturer

If you don't have the owners manual a Saturn dealership will have the schedule for you. Just ask.

The lexus 2004 RX330 owners maual doesn't have the maintenance schedule in it. No charts, no recommended replacement of parts, fluids. Where do I get the RX330 maintenance schedule? ...and not just at what mileage service is due!

Normal maintenance schedule at 75,000 miles:
Replace transmission fluid.
replace engine oil.
Rotate tires.
replace engine oil filter.
inspect brakes.
check parking brake adjustment.
inspect tie rod ends, steering gearbox and boots.
inspect suspension components.
inspect driveshaft boots.
inspect brake hoses and lines.
check all fluid levels.
inspect cooling system hoses.
inspect exhaust system.
inspect fuel lines and connections.

(At 90,000 do all of above plus:
replace air cleaner element.
inspect and adjust drive belts.
replace cabin air filter.)

No, it has a timing chain that will not require maintenance. Maybe he meant the external drive belts. They should be changed on schedule.
