Transmission Issue 7-8 gear
I have heard of the fluid being low and causing the 1-2 shift to seem to slip or even the 2-3 shift to do same. I have noticed the same sort of issue with the 7-8 , but only those gears. is it possible this is just fluid levels being low?

I was going to set up a trans service with my lexus dealer , Hoping that it is just a bit low and this will correct this issue , anyone have any related issues like this, I've been searching all the trans issues and all I can figure is that's its low on fluid. but for it to do only the 7-8 shift

Hey man, mine is a little jerky going into 3rd (up or down) a lot of the time (sport manual of course) and ever so often going into 7th. I've been debating a full trans fluid flush and refill too.

I will check to see, and I will ask if this includes a filter too( which I think it should)

The 3.4 swap does not include a filter, I just got mine back from its 4th attempt at finally getting the level right and they nailed it, 100% better than its ever been (bell Lexus Scottsdale). Mine was jerking in and out of every gear and felt like crap in general, tech said he had to keep temp at EXACTLY 113 to get it right. Now it's butter smooth in all modes.

WOW really.... glad to hear that it is that sensitive to fluid levels, kind of puts my mind to rest ( was hoping it was not something worse) , and I'm not too happy with that cost if the filter is not being changed, I'm set to drop it off Monday and will call to double check before I do
