thatnks for the comments, where is that throttle cable located for the tranny?

Thank You for your input,

do you know if it is difficult to replace the driveshaft bushings on our cars? any special tool i need for the job? Thanks!

No one has anything to say at all? i forgot to also mention that i hear a squeeking sound when i shift P-R and P-D and is most noticible when the car is cold. This is really irritating sometimes and I'm sure the lexus didnt make this sound when it was new so I know something is going on.... cmon guys, anything at all?

Today i went and got my car lifted to check out my exhaust system because im going to upgrade it.

to my suprise the oil pan from the tranny and engine were both leaking. keep in mind that i just did a major tune-up with lexus.

and they also found all 3 mounts to be broken. the 2 motor mounts and the transmission mount.

any ideas on the repairs that should be charge to replace transmission mounts.

Lexus quoted me at $83 for the trans mount. I got the part # and got the same mount for $46 from Toyota.

Hi, my 1997 SC300 always jerks when I go from Park-Reverse-Drive. I changed the transmission mount and got all new rotors and brake pads, and it still jerks. The entire car kind of leaps forward when I engage from P-D and leaps backward when I go from P-R.

Now, this is my first car that is RWD, I am used to front drive cars and I don't know if this is normal or what? Can the differential mount be the cause of this happening? If so, should I replace the whole mount or just the bushings? Thanks. And if it helps the car has 100K+ miles on it and I always do fluid changes, although I never changed out the diff. fluid but it is on my to-do list. Thanks in advance! :)

Really? no one has anything to say? Cmon people, I know you're better then this.

Hi, I am ready to purchase a lexus sc300, probably with around 40,000-80,000 miles. Can some of you tell me if this car has transmision problems? or other major problems with the engine?

I also want to know this car's biggest weakness.

Thanks, all the help is appreciated. B)

Hey, does anyone know where I can view some videos of Lexus GS. I've been trying to find videos all day on the net but still no luck. I'm specifically looking for videos that show the car in acceleration (o-60) and in other forms of performance(slalom,braking,etc.)

Thanks in advance!
