"No, it's not fixed, but not everyone has a problem with the transmission. If your wife drives in such a way that the transmission doesn't bother her, I'd recommend the ES330 wholeheartedly. Therefore, I'd suggest that she arrange for an extended road test before deciding."

Thanks for the advice. Could you be more specific on what she should be doing during the test drive to see if that particular ES had any of the tranny problems?

For example, should she punch it at a particular speed or going uphill?

I didn't know whether to write this post on this thread or start another. so here goes. My wife is really wanting the 2004 ES330. I've been reading about the tranny lag problems with the 02 and 03s. Can anyone tell me if Lexus fixed this problem on the 2004s?
