Disadvantages of the Toyota TG-80SC gearbox

  • This is a rare automatic transmission; it was only installed on the third-generation RX350 F-Sport model;
  • In the early years, owners complained about jerking and stumbling, but firmware updates fixed everything;
  • This transmission is also very sensitive to oil level, so watch for leaks;
  • The tiny heat exchanger quickly clogs and is best replaced every 100,000 km;
  • Other problems are related to contamination of the valve body by wear debris from the clutches.
