- We bought this 2007 Lexus ES350 from a dealer auction in our area but on the way home, the transmission started having issues and went into limp mode. Can I fix this transmission and flip this car?
My son's 2011 lexus es350 clutch shift solenoid was bad and got check engine light, we bought the clutch solenoid kit on eBay and they were replaced by mobile mechanic for $500 parts and labor total. So far so good 👍
The vsc and traction control lights are normal when check engine light is on. Anytime you get a check engine light on a Lexus you'll it'll disable vehicle stability control and traction control
How do i disable traction and vsc ?
@@peckhammarley1271 To disable traction control do you have to turn the vehicle off apply the E brake push the brake to turn the vehicle on pump the brake 3 times pump the E brake 3 times again that will disable traction control
Thanks for this video Adam. My Lexus’ tranny has the same problem. Good to know there is possibly hope for it.
Any updates?
@@marklance033 I had mine repaired for $2400. Find a mechanic with a good reputation. If they can find a low mileage used one they will replace it.
@WisdomWinss where??? They charging me $4200
It depends alot on what's wrong...if it's just soft parts they're local and don't require as much labor, verus hard internal parts that have to be ordered and shipped or gotten from Lexus dealer and that's a lot more labor opening case and so forth. Your $4200 may be justified@@johnnycalderon9951
I just bought a 2009 Es 350 and it appears to have a transmission leak. I took it back to the dealer and they had their mechanic fix it or so it appeared, only to find the same issue of leaking. I’m thinking just buying another very low mileage transmission. By the way, my Lexus ES 350 2009 only have 123,000 miles. The transmission shift smoothly but something is wrong because I can see the leaking, hear a rumbling, growling, vibration noise at 20 to 25 miles per hour. Give me some advice please.
Hi Adam, I have the same issue. I tried to open the pan, but there is one last screw its hard to open it since it has really narrow space. You can't use tools through it. Would you please let me know how you did it
I had to use a very smal 10mm wrench to get between the subframe
That or a 10mm nut driver bit stuck into a 1/4” drive 1/4” socket
Hey buddy, my name is frank and I live Riverside, CA. I have the same issue. Where did you get the parts from?
i bought an 08 at auction same thing trans would shift to 3rd but not past that i am getting solenoid codes as well
Where is this auction ? And when ? I’m guessing it’s for DIYers ?

Did you end up fixing this problem?
@@Anibal-uz3kz no She still in the warehouse
@@JoesGoldenGarageWere you able to fix it or is the car sitting still?
Hello. Was that a kit that you bought with all parts together? Send link if you have one.
My car still drive it just jerk really bad when I take off besides dat it’s holding up I just know ima have too get it fix asap I really think da ppl that’s fixing it don’t know what they doing
Some said updating tranny software to fix the flaring from 3rd to 4th when cold
I need this repair done. Where can I get someone to fix my car. Everyone wants to change my transmission out.
Were you able to fix it without changing the entire transmission?
Hey Adam I have the same problem with my Lexus es350 it not moving front or back please what did you change??
If its not moving at all your transmission could just be bad. How many miles are on your Lexus?
Just bought a 07 Lexus es 350 that has a shifting delay only after the second gear. It will shift to the next gears but just a hard pause then it shifts fine. Do you think I need shift solenoids?
Maybe but I would try a couple drain and fills first.
@@adamsgarage5119 Turned out to be the transmission. Got another one put in and it's doing good for now
@@llg7456Damn! How much did you spend?
@@Lorenzo-wl5xt $1200
Was there a follow up on this with all the improvements to the Lexus?? I can't find it.
Hello, can you help me? I have a 2007 Lexus. I turn it on and the transmission works. Then they spend about 2 minutes and the transmission stops working.
So.. im driving my car and all of the sudden it stoppeed. I step on the gas but it wen nowhere. I let it cool down and now its good. But as soon as the car warms up transmission dies. Help!!
My car need work on da transmission as well I wish u was in Florida lol I love my Lexus I really don’t wonna sell it fr es 350 treat me good
What's wrong with it? Any faulty codes? P2714?
Hey Adam can the fix be applied to 2008 Es350?
Yeah I would assume so they are the same car mechanically
@@adamsgarage5119 how much did it cost you? I’m having thoughts about what to do with it
@@faisalvids505 Yeah so the solenoids kit I bought on Amazon for $160 and then I went to Oreillys and bought a filter and pan gasket kit for around $40. I also bought two gallons of compatible transmission fluid which was aroung $60. So total all in was about $260. The solenoid kit I bought is here: OEM U660E Remanufactured... www.amazon.com/dp/B08P8J55GK?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
@@adamsgarage5119 Fantastic! Thank you
@@faisalvids505 Just a fair warning though, taking the valve body out of the transmission was kind of a frustrating process haha hence no video footage of it. This project took around 2 days all said and done. Since the repair, Ive driven the car about 250 miles and havent had any issues. Good luck! Transmission issues are always a pain.
Young buck you should've let a real technician look at it
No money for that and it worked so…. Yeah
Ok some times when you think it's fix its all ways something else good luck 👍
adam where did you order your parts?
I ordered the solenoid kit off of amazon for $160 and get the filter and gasket kit at oreillys. I bought the fluid at walmart.
@@adamsgarage5119 hey man thanks for the reply. We bought a 2008 just like yours but we have $6300 in it and we bought it sightunseen from the auction (not recommended) it’s a beautiful one owner with all the service history through Carfax and when it got shipped to us it would shift through the first three gears but the last three gears are dead so I’m going to follow your video to a T is there any tips on removing that valve body?
@@JoesGoldenGarage Yeah one think I would make sure to do is keep track of all of the bolts you take out of the valve body. They are all different lengths and go in certain spots. Also make sure when you put it back in that the harnes connects properly. Also there is a thing on the side that is connected to the shifter in the car so make sure that lines up with the pin thats up in there or else it wont shift into drive. It wasnt too hard but theres not a lot of videos out there showing how to do it.
@@adamsgarage5119 cool. Very good thanks yeah I did a Conductor plate on a Mercedes Benz and almost missed getting that little notch lined up for the gearshift select
@@JoesGoldenGarage Yeah I wish you luck with your preject. Usually these have issues with solenoids because people do not change the fluid often enough and it gunks them up. Should be pretty straight forward.
so what was the main issue was it fixed?
One of the shift solenoids was getting stuck and the car would go into limp mode. After being replaced it drove perfect!
How much did it cost?
@@adamsgarage5119How much would you charge for this job? Solenoid stuck off in D position?
Any new videos coming?
Not on this car. Were having some renovations done on the shop but I might be able to do an IAA walk around video soon!
Where's part2
No part 2 on this one. Car is long gone.
@@adamsgarage5119 why haven't you posted? Everything ok?
@@marklance033 Yeah everything is fine. Ive been really busy lately and most of it is not really interesting.
@@adamsgarage5119 Hope you post soon
How did you change the transmisison fluid?
Behind the drivers wheel there is a fill bolt.
@@adamsgarage5119 can you post a short video on how to change transmission fluid on ES 350, you would get lots of views, because there is no such video specifically for ES 350 2007-12
@@northkarachigottalent4527 I don’t have this specific car anymore to make a video on but I found one here:
ruclips.net/video/4HvHXuo1Vd8/видео.htmlsi=7w-8Ms81Oq6ubjOX
Also, this is the same powertrain that is in the 07 Toyota Avalon so a video on that car would be the same procedure if the video above isn’t what you needed.
You dint torque any of that straight impact the whole way 😂. Good job tho.
Maybe he didn't mean to Mr. KLC or are you Mo. B Dick? ROTFLMAO #newnolimit #beatsbythepound
