Lexus' Gear Vibrates At High Speed by drhappy(m): 5:36pm On Sep 22, 2014 |
Good evening to all the auto gurus in the house. I was on Benin-Ore expressway earlier today enroute Ibadan from Asaba and I noticed that the gear of my car (RX300) kept vibrating whenever the speedometer needle got to the 160km/hr(100miles/hr) mark.The car itself didn't vibrate at that speed though and the gear selection was very smooth until that point.I also realized that the gear vibration was more marked when going uphill. It occurred thrice so I left it between 120 and 140 till I got to Ore without any issue.The other parts of the trip were at low speed due to the nature of the roads. Is this a normal phenomenon for that Lexus brand or something is wrong with the gear box?Car is less than 3 months in my care and I have been paying adequate attention to the manufacturer's instructions. Nice evening to y'all. |

Sounds like an engine mount/transaxle issue, physical and visual inspection is required. 1 Like |

Ask your mechanic to check your transmission mount and also your engine mounts too 1 Like |

drhappy: Good evening to all the auto gurus in the house. If you notice vibration between 90 to 110 KMPH ONLY it's likely you need to balance the wheels. Try balancing the wheels first it doesn't cost much. |
