Were you ever able to fix this? It drives me craZy as well, and happens the MOST when i slow down at a stop sign and then accelerate again.

Hi everyone,
I just got a used GS350. At about 20-25mph, it can sometime hesitate/jerk when I am driving without much acceleration. If I press the accelerator hard, the car accelerates without much problem.
I tried searching through the forum but couldn't find anyone with the same problem except maybe the LS460 https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...low-speed.html
I have tried cleaning the MAF with CRC cleaner + resetting the ECU by unplugging the battery for 10minutes but I still have the problem. Strangely, I didn't have to recalibrate the windows after plugging out the battery, but the GPS did the long initial boot-up..
Anybody with similar problems?

Hi Guy's.
I had this happen to my 07 gs300, VSC light coming on, jerky when warm etc..... and getting the P2757 error code, I drained the transmission, took the transmission oil pan off, and replaced shift solenoid valve SLU... OEM part number 3528030050... then put a new transmission oil filter in, and replaced the trans fluid.... and wow... it shifts beautifully ... drives like a new car again,. Problem solved..... and has around 150K on it,.... I wonder how many GS300 transmissions have been replaced due to this being the only problem

I'm having the same or similar issues on my 06 gs430. This started happening when I was fixing my rear driver wheel hub. I had the car lifted and was leaning on that side for 2 days. Maybe since I had it lifted and left alone for those 2 days, possibly some small particles might have accumulated on the solonoids? It never happened before this. I just purchased a used low miles trans just incase, but since this swap is a big job, would like to see if the trans is not the issue. I have heard some of the members having the same issues. They replaced the trans from the dealer and it was not fixed. Some have stated that it was the ecu problem. The ecu was holding the trans solonoid longer.
So what could it be?
