Questions About 2013 Lexus LS460’s Transmission

  • How much can I tow in a Lexus LS460? 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 LS460’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.

Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
