Questions About 1994 Lexus SC300’s Transmission

  • How much can I tow in a Lexus SC300? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small.

  • How often does my SC300 transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Lexus SC300 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Lexus, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
