Hi all,
The transmission on my 2002 Lexus ES300 is acting up. I know a bit about a lot of things, but cars aren't one of them (other than regular maintenance). I've been "taken" by auto shops in the past, and have yet to find one that I like or trust .
The transmission is finicky and jerky, so that the car is hard to drive smoothly. If I'm very careful and press or release the accelerator very smoothly and slowly, it shifts fine. Anything else and it sort of "clunks" and can't decide which gear to choose. Once it does decide, it's often the wrong gear.
I can provide more details if needed. I don't expect any miracles; just hoping to have an idea of what to expect when I bring it in. Thanks!
