How long should brakes last on Lexus RX 300?
As with the brakes on any vehicle, the lifespan of the brakes is very dependent upon how, where, and in what environmental conditions the vehicle is driven as well as how well the vehicle is maintained. The type of brakes used also have an impact, organic, semi-metallic, or metallic linings have different rates of wear (organic is shortest, metallic is longest) 2-5 years should not be an unreasonable expectation under average conditions using semi-metallic brake linings.
How does Lexus rx330 snow mode work?
I have herd that snow mode is only for when you start your vehicle up and not when driving.

To change the Backup light-bulb & the Running light-bulb for a Lexus RX 330 2004
You first have to remove the felt covered piece on the interior of the tailgate. If you look closely, there's a felt covered tab in the center. You pop that off first.

Once the entire felt piece is removed, you have to remove the large plastic piece above it to get to the light bulb.
You will see the socket twist about an eight of a turn pull out gently, pull bulb straight out.
Work in reverse to put back.

The EPA specifies "regular" grade gasoline for the 2005 Lexus RX330. By contrast, the Acura MDX, all years, specifies "premium" grade, according to the EPA. My understanding is that the grade they state is the grade they tested with. And, btw, better mileage will NEVER be achieved by switching to premium. If your car pings with regular, you need to upgrade. If it runs fine with regular and you switch to premium, all you will notice is a lighter wallet...FACT
