Just got back from dealership and did the engine and transmission ECU flash to the latest program versions.
Experienced one clunk as I was leaving the dealership, but have not experienced one since. Drove around my neighborhood at 35 mph and slower, coasted, slowed to a stop, and its all super smooth. Engine braking works fine, downshifting works fine, and NO CLUNK!
After 5 rounds of transmission fluid changes, this has been the fix i was looking for. Best $147 dollars spent at the dealership.

My dealership just back to me on the jerking problem. they qouted me a bill of 12k USD. 6k was just for the ECU and the rest for full servicing of the transmission. I see this as an extortion. Is there a site where i can check the official price for original parts or even a site where i can complain this.
for those who have replaced their ecu from their dealer, how much was it exactly?

Did you buy a used ECU? Who replaced and remarried it? I found a used one with the same part # and have a mechanic who says he can reprogram it.

I thought my car was cursed but it just seems like all of our cars are cursed not only with this but the dreaded carbon build up amongst others.
Its silly how Lexus can't even diagnose their own problem, I wonder how many people in the US got ripped off by the dealer saying they must change the transmission only having to be something much cheaper in the end.
Anyway, I guess I have to look for someone to get me an ECU and install it. I may try Lexus customer care first and see what they can do.
My transmission jerk (coming to a stop under 10mph) just started happening recently I believe, I'm at about 103k miles.
