galtom Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Yes, serious. Translation of short forms can be tricky :-). Google tranny and see where you got one on your car (go for images it will be easier to find!) ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenore Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 That generation of RX300's had a lot of Transmission failure when not maintained. That is why the 15k miles changes, however Mobil1 Full synthetic fluid can be used as well as Amsoil, and some others that are compatible.
