Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The new 5 speed transmission on my '03 lexus seems a little strange. if i drive about 35 mph and then slow down to about 5 mph and than try to accelerate there is a hesitation. it's as if the transmission can not decide on what gear to go into. when it finally does there's a slight lurch forward. this situation is very dangerous when trying to pass another vehicle. *nlm
