Listo

Thanks for replying Nutmegs! I only found out the car had the problem 40kms after buying it in a private sale. I don't know what to do with it now to be honest. I can't sell it like this and can't drive it. I'm starting to accept the cheapest option will be to just replace the transmission. It's funny, the whole reason I love Lexus is their reliability (and comfort).

Hey mate, did you get this done? I've got the same car and looking like I will need to do this too as I just keep paying for professionals to tell me its fixed when it's not.

Hi everyone. I just joined this forum after doing my head in on this same problem. Gears intermittently fail to go past 3rd or 4th and getting recurring codes P2714 and P0761. Sometimes one or the other. I took it to Lexus Blackburn who charged me just under $200 to reset the computer and told me with confidence it was fixed. As I drove away 200m down the road, it slipped back to 3rd again. I drove it back and they assured me it was fixed and it might take a day or two. This was massive BS. Took it to an automatic transmission specialist who were baffled. They switched the solenoids and it still had the same problem. They sent the computer off to get repaired. The computer technician said it was damaged and that they fixed it, $1500 later (including the transmission service) and it's still doing it. Can anyone tell me anything at all that may be helpful? Thank you so much in advance!
