Lexus 01 RX300 shifting issue

Asked by STMO333 Feb 21, 2021 at 06:34 PM about the 2001 Lexus RX 300 AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I shift into drive... the transmission shifts through the gears until the last one.  
Going 60 mph with 4k rpm is not good.  The overdrive light is off, I've cycled it
but no help. This doesn't happen all time and if it does I turn the car off, wait
then restart it and it works ok for awhile.  What's up?

1 Answer

If you are lucky it might just be a bad shift solenoid. Have a transmission shop diagnose it.
