Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 Transmission Intermittently Does Not Engage Into Drive For 6 Seconds
I have had an issue with my GX470 almost since I bought it in 2008. It will sometimes not engage in drive after backing out of a parking space.
It usually happens when it is warm and the car has been driving for awhile then I park for lunch or an errand. I come back start up the car put it into reverse backout of the car space and nothing for a good 5-6 seconds. Seems a lot longer when cars are waiting to take your space and honking.
Anyway I have been reporting it to Lexus at every service and getting a no trouble found. Over time it is occurring more regularly and it even happened at the dealership but of course I was the only one in my car at the time.
S-10 :: 2001 4 Wheel Drive Won't Engage
I have an 01 s10 with the 3 switch 4x4. When I switch into 4hi I hear the click at the dash and I hear the switch on the transfer case but it doesn't engage in 4x4. The lights o. The dash act normal and says its in 4 wheel. I've had problems with the switch on the front of the transfer case in the past and was able to clean it and it was OK for awhile and now nothing. I replaced that switch and hear it working but still not engaging. I did notice a bad vac line on the firewall but not sure where it goes yet. Is there an order I should be checking components? What should I look for next? Also should mention in 2hi I get a whining noise like a shaft is spinning but when in 4hi the noise goes away and it drives like its in 2hi.

on a 93' 4 runner that will not engage 4 wheel drive. The 4 wheel manual shifter works fine, and the linkage underneath looks fine; however, the indicator does not light up - and it definately only has rear wheel drive.

View 3 RepliesS-10 :: 2003 4 Wheel Drive With Automatic Transmission - Front Axle Will Not Engage
Its a automatic transmission with a v6 4.3 vortec. The front axle will not engage, it is not the acuator (I replaced it and the cable) you can pull the cable and the axle will engage. There is a low buzzing noise(coming from the drivers side) until you give it gas. This noise stops when the front axle is engaged. The transfer case will go from hi to low without any problems.

I have just switched from GM to Ford and have a new F250 4x4 XLT. I am wondering how to engage 4 wheel drive correctly. I have the manual shifter and the manual lock hubs. However during my test drive I shifted the lever into 4H and 4L and it seemed to engage just fine. Do I need to lock my hubs as well? Or if im just in a wet spot can i just shift into 4h without locking my hubs? I know if I am in anything serious I need to lock the hubs. I just want to be sure before I get into a tricky situation. My 02 GM all i had to do was push a button and it shifted automatically.

I recently purchased a 2003 F350 FX4 Dually with the 7.3L Diesel. It has locking hubs and electric shift in the cab.
I have had locking hubs before that you had to engage to shift into 4 wheel drive and I have had trucks without locking hubs.
My truck didn't come with a manual, so I am looking for instructions for the proper use of this system.
Lexus GX 2010+ :: Transmission Not Wanting To Engage After Being Put In Drive
We recently had an issue with our 2011 GX460. My wife first experienced the transmission not wanting to engage after being put in drive. Once it did engage there was a loud bang/pop noise, then no issues afterwards. The same thing happened to me this weekend. It was weird, like the brakes had frozen up then suddenly released and the transmission slammed into gear. We bought the vehicle used a couple months ago with 39k miles. With factory warranty remaining it will be heading to the dealer shortly.

The transmission went out on my 2006 gs300 it is a rear wheel drive car but i am having a hard time finding anything but an awd transmission for that year. Where I can get one? Or I was talking to a mechanic and he was saying the the only difference between the two trannies is a adapter to go from awd to 2 wheel drive cars so I might be able to use an awd trans and pull the adapter of.
View 1 RepliesLexus GX 2004-09 :: Transmission Would Not Engage In R Or D?
I have a 2006 Gx 470, which is the wife's car.
Yesterday I couldn't drive the car when 4WD shifter was in neutral.
The transmission would not engage in R or D.
Same thing when the car was put in low for the 4WD shifter.
However, it seems to drive normally when the shifter is in H.
When I went to put the shifter in Park from either the low or Neutral position it would have a high grinding noise.
Car is in the shop as we speak.

View 10 RepliesLexus IS 2014+ :: Slight Vibration In Steering Wheel At Low Idle (in Drive)
I'm not sure if this is normal, but I have noticed a slight vibration in the steering wheel. This happens when the engine is completely warmed up and If I'm sitting at a complete stop in drive (no air conditioning, seat warmers, or headlights on) it happens. It is not a vibration where the idle goes up and down. The rpm gauge shows that it is between a consistent 550-600 rpms. When the headlights or air is on, the idle goes to around 700-750 and the steering wheel vibrations go away. I do not have any cel on and I know the car is not miss firing. I think it's just because the low idle.
