I had that problem. When accelerating hard the car sifted into third really hard. When the ECU fix came out they reprogrammed my ECU and Gave me a new trac unit. Check your VIN. When I got the car back everything was OK. The car rides perfect now.

yea,
i heard and got all the info on this back when it wasnt a problem for me..
but i also heard from a well informed lexus employee that by fixing the trac/ ecu problem., it can slow down ur IS300

so i am hesitant to do so...
