Ted7 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hello there, I'm new here so this is my first post. I live in Southern California, I owe a Lexus SC400 with high mileage (though it still looks and drive pretty cool). I just noticed a strange thing here with the transmission, 1st is ok, 2nd go really smooth, 3rd gear is a kick, 4th gear is smooth... Why the hell this kick from gear 2 to gear 3 ? Any idea ? Thx in advance if someone got any answer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF3 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 It's probably a transmission mount. It's a pretty common problem amongst high mileage cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the beginning of the end ? Can I live with it without worrying any further ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF3 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 it can be fixed, but I'd suggest replacing all of your mounts on the engine and Transmission so that you don't have to worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
