Lexus autobox just doesnt break like that. box might show signs of shifting problems and if ignored by the owner it then gives up...since the car was bought only today i would have it towed back to who ever sold it to you and get your money back or if you want to keep it, might be worth taking it to an auto box specialist for dignosis it might be something small like drain and refill box oil or big bills..

• Hi as noby 76 said these gearboxes just dont stop workiing it may just need a oil and filter change what mileage was on the clock when it went wrong but i would take it back and ask for your money back i think the mileage is stored in the computer

Mine has 130k on the clock and the oil is just starting to darken it runs perfect.

Perhaps return the car, or if not possible i'd presume its more likely to be an electrical problem perhaps or the selector mechanism. No fault lights on the dash?

Oh and in what way has the gearbox failed? We may be able to offer more help if you describe the actual problem or whats happening.

What isnt working on the speedo dials?

100k on clock and gear box is still solid - even checked the colour of the oil a few weekends ago and its still red. Did you take this for a test run when you bought it? Presume the 25 miles you have done is since you have bought it, if so i would take it back if you are concerned about the box - more info on the problem would help everyone on the forum to help you out.

Like everyone has said, the boxes are bullet proof

Whats gone wrong with the instruments?
