2020 Lexus RC350 Questions & Answers

  • 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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use 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 RC350 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my RC350's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Lexus RC350 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Lexus's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Lexus RC350 leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Lexus RC350 can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your RC350 ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
