There may or may not be a difference in reliability and quality and you would have no way to tell the difference. I would get one from an Lexus dealership or order one online from an Lexus dealership. It will cost more, but think of it as insurance.

I personally would use the recommended coolant as it is made to be fully compatible with your cooling system. Using the wrong coolant on some of today's engines, with all the aluminum in them, can cause premature corrosion. Corrosion in the cooling system is NOT a good thing.
