Default 2001 GS300 eshift/tranny issue

Hey guys,

I bought my dad's 2001 GS300 with 183k miles recently that is having some transmission issue. When you go WOT on the freeway it sometimes hesitates to go to the next gear and it also refuses to go to "M" eshift mode. It's not throwing any cel for the transmission. Other than that the car runs strong and I bought it dirt cheap

I've search the 2nd gen GS section and google but haven't found anything.


Thanks
Tim
