★ Top Answer
The ideal choice for transmission fluid in a 2009 Lexus RX350 is Toyota genuine ATF WS. It's recommended to have the fluid replaced every 30,000 miles to maintain the transmission's longevity. Over time, due to heat and aging, the fluid's viscosity can decrease, potentially leading to transmission slipping issues. The RX350's dipstick can be found on the driver's side of the engine compartment below the cover. Changing the filter can be quite challenging, especially for those without mechanical skills. If you’re not confident in your abilities, consider having the dealership handle it, although some may refuse to perform the task.
