Transmission problem ls430 yr2001 in Lexus LS400 / Lexus LS430 / LS460 / LS600 / Toyota Celsior Club Posted May 3, 2017 Hi guys, vehicle: LS430 yr: 2001 problems: after accelerating to kickdown. Wheels spun a bit i think. Car lost power and went into limp mode. Vsc and check engine light camp on stopped car. Turned of ignition.waited a minute .restarted .all good car drove ok for a coiple of days just now went around the corner to iga.few minutes drive. All good... got back in car after shopping. car seemed to have trouble shiponf through lower gear and seemed " jittery" and lack of power. Seemed to settle at constant speed of 60kms or so what could be the problem? tranmission fluid looks ok.kinda reddish brown could it be the vehicle speed sensors? Usa side forum poster took the VSS out and cleaned them .after that reported all good. dave
