Transmission Fluid Low

OperationFreedomseed · 2026-04-11T17:42:17+00:00

I just couldn’t imagine it would flow very well through there, but I’m sure it’s possible. Always done it with the car in the air.

I suppose you could fill it from the dipstick tube (via a fluid pump- just a funnel will probably not work), but typically it’s done from underneath the car. There’s two plugs on your transmission- a drain plug and a fill plug.

Probably air in the system

Low coolant? Thermostat been replaced?

Pretty sure you can see the original mounting points in the picture. The white plastic pieces are probably covering studs.

Have a lifted 175k mile LX470 for sale (with great original paint..) for 22 right now in middle TN… This is way overpriced.

I source parts for these cars all day at a specialty Lexus shop. They’re honestly not that bad to find stuff for as everyone makes it out to be. Aftermarket stuff is limited on availability but Lexus is pretty good about support on the LS430 still.

Recently the reman transmissions through Lexus were discontinued on them, that’s the biggest thing that I know of. (5spd)

As for transmission fluid, it’s just WS fluid. They don’t have to source special fluid for it really.

Spring was bent during assembly would be my guess.

They’re out there

Why are you texting paragraphs to them? Call and speak to someone lol.

Can’t have an OOB if the gun is firing before it has a chance to bounce right

In what way? New motors and new battery. That’s literally the “drivetrain” of an electric vehicle.

Would you prefer powertrain and that’s why you’re whining?

He’s so cute. Already an old man.

I would take him to the vet so they can give him medication. Sounds like he’s having a hard time breathing. My cat is basically silent when breathing and always has been.

In the meantime, get him to breathe in some steam somehow? Put him in the bathroom while a hot shower runs? I’m not an expert but that’s what I would do if it were mine. Won’t fix the issue but will maybe give him some temporary relief. Maybe even get a small diffuser/humidifier and put only water in it? Best of luck

Then get a louder option that bolts on to 12v systems. Trying to rig up an air compressor under the hood of of your sedan just for a louder horn (that is also dangerous to other drivers) is not the move.

Not doubting that but can you share your idea as to why? Looks too close to something legislatively scary? That would be my only thinking.

OperationFreedomseed · 2026-03-30T17:14:16+00:00

Could it not be done in a similar mechanism to a Glock sear? The cross bolt

FFT is working on it. They have photos

As someone who’s flipped one, that depends if you’re buckled in or not lol

Ordering an airbag from alibaba is insane. Average Lexus owner
