2006 Lexus IS250 Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Lexus? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lexus IS250? 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 IS250’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your IS250 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my IS250's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2006 IS250’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Lexus IS250 leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lexus IS250, 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.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
