'05 RX330
The Maint Required light goes on roughly every 5K miles.
Can the dealer change the frequency to every 7500 miles?

Since the factory recommended service interval is 5,000 miles, my guess is
that the answer is no.

Initially, that's what I thought. However, there are 2 factory recommended
service intervals 5K and 7.5K, hence the question.

The Lexus web site lists personalized settings for 2005 and later vehicles,
and changing the maintenance required light interval was not among the
customizable settings. Perhaps a call to your local Lexus service
department would answer your question.

Black electrical tape is all that is needed to fix this.

Apply directly above light and it will never be seen again.
