2008 350awd problem
My VSC and check engine light have come on. In addition now the auto trans will not shift past 4 gear with in auto or with me doing it manually. My local shop who has worked on this car before and is very good put the computer reader on it and got a P0500 for vehicle speed sensor "A". Today they put it on the real monitor and it reads a different code that says check engine code but does not reveal the code to read.
I really don't want to go to my dealer and get it hard. The car has 175,000 and until now has run great. I tried the gas cap fix to no avail. The shop did a reset when i first got there and it last 75 yards. I am in central Ohio if anyone knows a good shop.
Thanks in advance for the help.

By the way....you've put a lot of miles on your GS 350.....is this your first problem with the car? Have you had your transmission serviced? I always crave input from those with higher mileage cars...

First shop couldn't retrieve the codes. Another Lexus feature. So I ended up at the dealer. Turns out that a mouse chewed into my transmission harness. Shop repaired harness now car is fine.

Glad you got it fixed....i tell people all the time....sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and take it to them....instead of guessing and/or driving around causing more damage.
