2019 Lexus RX450h Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Lexus's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lexus RX450h? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your RX450h’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your RX450h is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my RX450h's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Lexus RX450h’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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Lexus RX450h transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Lexus RX450h can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your RX450h ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues.
