2020 Lexus LC500 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your 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 I tow in a Lexus LC500? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your LC500’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your LC500 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my LC500's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2020 LC500’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.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Lexus LC500? Yes. Lexus LC500 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Where can I get my  Lexus LC500 transmission fixed? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair LC500 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Can I still drive my Lexus LC500 if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your LC500 with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
