The transmission was rebuilt on 11/15/13 at 242,600 miles and has gone out again at 250,379. Many others on the internet have had similar problems with their Rx300 transmissions. My brother also has an Rx300 and his transmission failed too. The planetary gears are often the problem. There should be a recall by Lexus to deal with this defective design.
