msat, I have the same thing. 2011 rx350. It feels to me like it's in the steering column. The guy I bought the car from said it was a gasket in the steering column that wore out. Have you solved it yet?

yes , its amber color and looks like a section view of a tire.

Same is happening to me now.' Have you solved this issue?

I just bought a used 2011 RX350. There are drips under the transfer case. The fluid was changed 3 weeks before I bot it, so I took it back there. They let me hang out with the mechanic. He thought it was not cleaned off from the change, and I had purchased new fill plug gasket, so I asked him to change the gasket just in case, which he did. No charge as the work was under warrantee. I did notice a squirt of lube flew out when he removed the fill plug. I think they may have over filled it a bit? One question I have; is there a vent of some kind or overflow tube on top of the transfer case that could be causing the leak? Has anyone else had this leak at 100,000 miles? Was it a bad gasket? If so which one? There seems to be a few gaskets as far as I can tell from looking at pics online. Thanks for any help.

zieke great idea

Hi all, just joined and new Lexus owner. Amazed I was, when I tried to take a wheel off. I have 3 different wrenches which seem the right size, one came with the car, one was a multi lug wrench from my old car, and a socket wrench. However, ALL of them just seemed to strip the nuts because the wheel didnt leave enough room to get the socket deep enough around the lug nut to apply the force necessary. This is very unsafe, if we have a flat out on the road, we are stuck. So my only thought is to buy a new set of lug nuts with the taller size socket grip area. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you solve it?
