Default 2022 lexus rx 350 vibrations

Hi, I know the topic of vibration has been discussed many times before. my lexus has 9000 miles . the center pipe was recently replaced.L-SB-0003-23. I noticed that after starting the car, the vibrations in the steering wheel, center console and driver's seat are less, much less. but the best thing is that these vibrations do not occur in the P position . appear in position R or D. in the P or N position they are almost imperceptible. maybe someone had this case. could it be a problem with the gearbox?

Sounds like you still have some exhaust vibration. When in reverse or drive, the engine rpms drop to a lower level, where apparently the vibrations originate. In park and neutral, the rpms go up where you have less vibes. Should have nothing to do with the transmission. Do you feel these vibrations while out on the road, or just while standing still?

Hi, the vibrations occur when stationary. But I have a problem with the gearbox jerking, I think between 1st and 2nd gear. I thought the vibrations and jerking would indicate a damaged gearbox

Being that you had the pipe replaced for the vibration TSB, I've read on here about some owners still having the problem. Didn't know you have shifting problems. I'd bring it to the dealer and have the transmission checked out.

I went to the dealer about the transmission and they can't see any problems with it. The Lexus is slowly becoming a real piece of ****.

Vibration may come from defective or damaged engine mount. Also, I suggest asking dealer to wipe out/reset “transmission memory”.

They did a reset. The service technician drove 30 miles, adjusted something, but it didn't help. I'll check the engine mount. I also heard that Lexus made a new mount that's better. I couldn't find any information about this mount

do you have any updates?
is it because of a bad engine mount?
I have the same issue, I can feel the vibration when holding the steering wheel, either idle or driving.

It's the characteristic of this vehicle. We all have this problem.

I dunno, after years of driving pickup trucks and four wheel drives, this car rides smooth as silk.

I have a 2019 with 68K miles on it. Bought it CPO so still currently under warranty until June 2026. I have never felt this. Curious what ends up being the cause.
