pichon50 Posted June 21, 2002 Share Posted June 21, 2002 Maybe someone can help me. I dont know if it my driving style or if it is just now that I am noticing it. Lately when i accelerate harder than normal the car seems to stay a couple of seconds longer in second gear and than when it shifts to third the car lunges forward. It feels as if the car wants to shift to 3rd but can't for some reason. I can't remember this ever happening before until these last couple of weeks. Has anyone experienced this with their IS 300.

feen78 Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 that happens, its the way the computer control the transmission shift. just think the with the e-shift you control when it goes to the next gear, lexus is known for smoothness so this isn't perfected yet. what i do to handle this porblem is put the e-shift on 3 the car will atuomatically go to 3rd and no further. then you choose when to change gears. oh yea third is a great power gear for this vehicl B) e it helps when street racing.
