1999 Lexus GS300 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.
  • How much can I tow in a Lexus GS300? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your GS300’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your GS300 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my GS300 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Lexus GS300’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Lexus's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Lexus GS300? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lexus GS300, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
