    Do you know if there is a seal that can easily be popped out where that smaller circle is at 10:28? It's next to the larger circle with the "X." I was told my leak could be coming from there or on the other side where the gear selector shaft is. Was told to purchase "two Timken 221207 seals. Transmission does not come out. One side takes 3 minutes to change. Other side you remove part of exhaust, shift attachment then seal. About 45 minutes. Pan doesn’t even come off. Seal pops out from outside." I can't find any videos on how to replace them though and want to have a visual and make sure I'm doing it right.

      if u have the different sleeve like I had to get you could slam it as low as you want pretty much. the only problem that people struggle with when slamming it with these coilovers is that the springs are not stiff enough and u need to either get different springs or just get a nicer set of coilovers. but if you want to ride at the same height as me or maybe a little lower you could probably make it work

      replacing fluids, adding some platinum lubegard additive to ur tranny, make sure your cooling system for your transmission is working (like your electric fans), make sure your fluid levels are good, replace those shift solenoids, and replace the filter👍🏻 your doing about all the right things man. I dont think I would recommend a shift kit to fix any of your problems, but a shift kit is fun. if you have any transmission fault codes I would check those as well. but yeah, just keep checking all your bases!

    Hello, how are you? I have a Lexus like yours. I love it, but I have a problem with the anti-lock gear. It lights up on the speedometer, TRC OFF, and the engine chuck, and I do not know the solution. I hope you help.🎉😢
