Every torque figure, clearance and service procedure in this 2018 Lexus GS F service and repair manual is written for the car as Lexus built it that year, around the 5.0L V8 (2UR-GSE), so nothing here is a close-enough value carried over from an adjacent model year or a different GS variant.

Known issues on the 2018 GS F. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it covers the gasoline fuel delivery system, specifically the fuel pump: Toyota is recalling certain 2016-2018 Lexus GS F vehicles equipped with 5.0L V8 2UR-GSE engines, on which a cracked cover may leak fuel, which, in the presence of an ignition source, can increase the risk. No complaints have been filed with NHTSA for the year, but Lexus has issued 25 technical service bulletins covering this car. The diagnostic and repair procedures behind the fuel delivery system and every system those bulletins touch are here.
Whether you are working through the fuel delivery system, the 2UR-GSE valvetrain or simply hitting a scheduled service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2018 GS F.
