HI, it soulds to me as if your very low on transmission fluid, have you checked it ?

Yes, you are right

Lexus got back to me today saying my transmission fluid is low which is as a result of broken drive shaft seal

The seal cost £12 and it will cost me £300 to replace it

PLS DOES ANYONE HAVE THE PART NUMBER FOR THIS SEAL, THIS IS THE SEAL THAT PREVENT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID FROM LEAKING THRU THE DRIVE SHAFT
