The Ikon

With the SRT T/C could you explain a lil' on this? How did it cause your car to lose idle? why not get the bad T/C exchanged for another good unit? Did the T/C help shave at least .5 off your 1/4 mile times?

*I also see you have a VW too Check out my antique VW Karmann Ghia in this thread:

***RodLs, I got a rebuilt (all new oem parts except case)tranny under warranty in 2000 and it was close to $2500 complete with a 2 year 24K mile warranty. My car had about 85K at the time and the car was not shifting as a 400 should, it was determined to had a some bad internal part after they torn the case apart.

i like being part of the "in" crowd but not like this. happened to me too, but my car is older - 93 with almost 150k. same problem with me. its gotten as bad as me having to put the car in neutral, gas it with my right foot (to keep the engine alive), brake with my left, all to have it stall on me when the green came up as i put it in gear. dayam this problem. keep us posted though...

I can't believe that there are this many people in this limited forum with this exposure.

For the group here that have responded with the same problem, I can't help but realize that there are potentially thousands more that are also experiencing this same problem with their vehicles.

It would seem to me that a problem of this magnitude would have warranted a recall by the manufacturer.

I suggest you all check the recall history on your vehicles and see if there was a recall issued for this problem. I realize this would have been quite a few years ago, but it may have slipped the minds of Lexus service departments and you are entitled to a recall service repair.

It's just a thought, but this problem seems wide spread.
