Fitment is the point of this 2010 Lexus IS 250C service and repair manual: it is scoped to the 2010 model year and to the trims Lexus built that year, so the specifications and torque sequences you work to are the ones written for your car rather than values borrowed from an adjacent year of the IS line.

Known issues on the 2010 IS 250C. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers visibility and the wipers: inoperative wipers could reduce driver visibility and increase the risk of a vehicle crash. The second and third both cover the passenger-side frontal air bag inflator module — in one, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants; in the other, an inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. Owners have filed 11 complaints for the year and Lexus has issued 82 technical service bulletins. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
Whether the work is a wiper system that has stopped responding, an air bag inflator inspection or a scheduled service interval, it holds you to the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2010 IS 250C.
