Currently at 113k. I have some Maintence Questions

Hello, All.

I have a 2004 TL 6MT that i bought 2 years ago with 58k. I currently have 113k on it and had 0 issues.

My buddy works at Lexus and does all the work there for cheap.

What maintence shoul dbe done at 113k, other then the 105k TB/WP/Plugs.

I did the following:
Tires
Brakes
PS Fluid flush
cabin filter
plugs
tranny flush
Cleaned intake filter

This weekend he will do:
Radiator flush
Bleed brake lines

Anything else i should do?

fully flush the brake fluid until all new clean fluid comes out DOT4 is fine

the TL order is special: driver front then clockwise around the car LF RF RR LR-very important to tell your buddy that
radiator flush with the 105- have to drain the coolant for that anyway

Seafoam will remove built up carbon and crud-restore like new performance
Do that in gas and vac port a week before plugs if possible, but any time is ok
and some in the oil 30 minutes driving before oil change

valve adjust can be added to the 105- some of the same covers involved and easy for the tech to see alignment marks with the cams exposed

You're 8,000 miles past due on replacing the timing belt. Along with that, you should also replace the water pump, any pulleys or tensioners, and the serpentine belt, and probably the coolant hoses.

Looks like you got it all handled. I can't think of anything you haven't taken care of. Well done.
