Additional Notes

  • The automatic transmission fluid capacity for the Lexus ES 350 (XV40) is 6.5 liters across all four configurations listed, covering both Canadian and U.S. markets for the 2007-2012 model years.
  • A 6.5-liter service fill is consistent with a partial drain-and-fill procedure rather than a full overhaul capacity, as automatic transmissions typically hold more fluid in total when the torque converter and all passages are included.
  • The Canadian-market ES 350 for 2007-2009 carries a 96,000 km change interval under normal use conditions, alongside a 16,000 km check interval.
  • For the Canadian-market 2010-2012 configuration, the 96,000 km change interval present in the 2007-2009 row is absent, leaving only the 16,000 km check interval under normal use.
  • The 16,000 km check interval specified for Canadian configurations reflects a periodic inspection of fluid level and condition rather than a full fluid replacement.
  • The U.S.-market ES 350 under normal use conditions carries no change interval in the specifications, with only the 6.5-liter capacity listed for the full 2007-2012 span.
  • Under severe use conditions, the U.S.-market ES 350 carries a change interval of 60,000 miles or 72 months, whichever comes first, applied across the full 2007-2012 model year range.
  • The 72-month time limit paired with the 60,000-mile mileage threshold in the U.S. severe-use row means fluid replacement is triggered by whichever of the two conditions is reached earlier, a dual-trigger structure common in severe-duty maintenance schedules.
