Lexus LS 460/500h Fuel System Service Malaysia
LS 460 direct injection — clean injectors every 60,000–80,000 km to maintain atomisation quality (carbon buildup on injector tips worsens over time). LS 500h bi-injection requires less frequent cleaning. Fuel pump lifespan: 150,000–200,000 km. Use RON 97 for optimal LS performance.
