2013 Lexus IS250 Transmission Q&A

  • 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. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Lexus tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your IS250 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my IS250's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Lexus IS250 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 transmission fluid leak from my Lexus IS250? Yes. Lexus IS250 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.

You might even experience transmission failure.
