  • How much can my Lexus tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. Defying your IS250 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.
  • How often does my IS250 transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Lexus IS250 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 IS250 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Lexus IS250 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
