Hi to all I'm new here and with a lexus too...
But I'm having the same issue. I went to the mechanic yesterday and today and he said that the transmission looks good because when you start to run and drive normally, the transmission was giving the gears correctly but is only when the gears goes down (4 to 3rd).
Im very concerned with this problem
.My ES300 has 122k milles, the mechanic said that the fluid atf is in bad conditions ad must change it... Now my questions are:
1- Can i used this fluid?

2- Do you guys think that the problems will fix with the change of transmission fluid and the filter?
I was thinking about TPS but i don't have code of it.
Thanks...
