TweekdRacing Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I have a 2002 Es300. It has a 5 speed trans. IF I put the gear selector in D it never shifts out of 4th gear. If i put it in 4 and drive it stays in 4 and manually shifting into D does nothing. The car revs at about 3200 rpms 60 Mph and 3600 at 80 MPH. I know this is to high and I'm pretty sure it's not going into Overdrive. Anyone know anyhting about this? Am i missing a switch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexusfreak Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Welcome to the site!Its definately not going into overdrive. Mine runs at 2400 RPM or so at 75. Agreed. Is the car still under the powertrain warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to find out the purchase date. Powertrain is 6 years or 70k miles......get the in service date. Awefully low mileage to have a tranny with an overdrive problem.

SW03ES Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Its probably just a computer problem. Get the in service date, because you're just there on the warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Shanley Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I'm having the same problem. In "D" it never makes it out of 4th gear. Definitely over 3000 RPM at 70 MPH. Did you resolve it? -Matt Shanley (New User) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you resolve it?-Matt Shanley (New User) Welcome Matt......what is your mileage currently & if below 70k miles do you know if it falls under the 6 year/70k powertrain warranty?

Matt Shanley Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 It has... wait for it.... less than 20k miles!!! We just bought it from my wife's Grandmother who can no longer drive. I don't know, however, if it's past the six years. If it's not we are just under the wire. I should point out that when I move the shifter from park to drive, 4th gear lights up. If I move it to 4th and back it still says 4th. If I move it to 3rd 2nd 1st the instrument panel reflects the changes. Basically the car can not tell the difference between the shifter in 4th or drive positions. -Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
