Questions About 2017 Lexus LS460’s Transmission

  • What can I tow in a Lexus? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem.

Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Lexus LS460? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lexus LS460, potentially causing transmission problems.
