Common problem. Do a search on "transmission" here and over at Club Lexus for info. Your transmission is not your only problem, your caps lock button is stuck. My 2000 RX300 went for 151k miles before the tranmission died. The only service that I did was change the fluid 10k miles ago. Maybe if I had stayed with the old fluid it would have gone another 100k miles. I went to my Lexus dealer that had performed all of the service on the car and explained about all the failure that I read on this forum. They replace the transmission and only charged me for the labor. So now my car has a Lexus rebuilt tranny that should last another 200k miles for $1700 plus tax. If you were loyal to a Lexus dealer you can make your case and save over $2k in parts.
