2017 Lexus ES300h Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Lexus's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Lexus? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your ES300h’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my ES300h's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Lexus ES300h’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Lexus, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Lexus ES300h leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Lexus ES300h can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your ES300h ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
  • Who fixes Lexus ES300h transmission leaks? When your ES300h transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Should I avoid driving my Lexus ES300h if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your ES300h to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
