Questions About 2009 Lexus ES350’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Lexus's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. 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 offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your ES350’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your ES350 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my ES350's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2009 ES350’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Lexus. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Lexus ES350 transmission fluid leak? Yes. Lexus ES350 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Where can I get my  Lexus ES350 transmission fixed? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair ES350 transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Can I still drive my Lexus ES350 if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your ES350 if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
