2005 Lexus LX470 Questions & Answers

  • 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. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Lexus tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your LX470 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.
  • Does my LX470's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Lexus LX470’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Lexus LX470 leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lexus LX470, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
