Lexus UX 200/250h CVT Gearbox Service Malaysia
K120 CVT fluid (Toyota CVTF TC) every 20,000 km. Drain and fill. The K120 is robust — failures are rare with regular fluid changes. Symptoms of CVT wear: hesitation at low speed, gear-hunting, burning smell.
Lexus UX Gearbox / Transmission Service
- UX 200 (M20A-FKS): Direct Shift CVT (K120) — use Toyota CVTF TC fluid; change at 20,000 km for long service life
- UX 250h: eCVT — no conventional CVT fluid change needed; hybrid transaxle is sealed
- UX 200 CVT shudder: if UX 200 shudders during light acceleration from stops — CVTF change usually resolves it
- Only Toyota CVTF TC for UX 200: using incorrect fluid on Direct Shift CVT causes chain wear and premature failure
