Questions About 2015 Lexus GX460’s Transmission

  • How much can I tow in a Lexus GX460? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your GX460 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my GX460's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Lexus GX460 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Lexus GX460 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Lexus GX460 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.

You might even experience transmission failure.
