Questions About 1993 Lexus SC400’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Lexus? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Lexus SC400? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your SC400’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your SC400 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my SC400's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Lexus SC400 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 my Lexus SC400 leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Lexus SC400, 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.
  • Who fixes Lexus SC400 transmission leaks? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair SC400 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Lexus SC400 if there is a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your SC400 to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
