Does any one have experience towing a Lexus RX350. I know you will have to use a transmission pump (ie, Remco LP7). My previous tow vehicle was a Saturn Vue, it is now being used by a Collage graduate ( grandson) . With out buying another car I would like to use the RX as our tow vehicle.

Marty, I have a friend I've traveled thousands of miles with, he has a RX350 with the Remco and has had no problems except battery discharge issues even with a 10AMP Toad Charger wired in.

He's continuing to diagnose that issue.

Marty have 2007 Allure and I towed a 2007 Lexus RX350 with a Remco LP7 for 10000 miles and then the Transmission on the Lexus failed. After many letters and finger pointing (Lexus and Remco) i gave up and paid the repair and purchased a 2009 Jeep Liberity. I'd follow what the Manufucture says.
