Welcome to the club. I also have the same problem. As quoted from Lexus Customer Service, "It has been determined that your concern with the transmission is a normal characteristic for the 2001 GS 300. No defects in materials and/or workmanship were found."
It is hard be believe that this inherit annoying problem can't be fixed.
