Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum. Searched before posting this thread, but did not found such issue.
So, I'm owner since 1y and half of LX450 and when I get the car the oil in gearbox was far above maximum level on cold measurement and hot.
Then 2-3 moths and ~1000 miles I serviced the car. Change all fluids, repair a lot of stuffs and also changed the oil in gearbox with filter. Also the gearbox was removed from the car and sealing was changed.
Car started shifting very smooth...
From time to time I was checking the oil levels, and oil started to raise.
Checked the coolant, no change in level, the oil in gearbox is still red and did not change the color.
Suddenly after 1500 miles gearbox started to leak a lot.
So currently car is in service again, we will remove gearbox again and we will try to find where this leak comes.
But question is why oil is rising the level, we checked transfer box oil and it's just where should be.
Is someone knows why oil is rising?
