I did an upgrade of my GX470 to Prado 2022 and the battery compartment became smaller than it used to be. So, the 90amps Solite Korean made battery no longer fit into the compartment.

I changed to a smaller but a korean tech Version.

I noticed my car is no longer going beyond 2nd gear. Technically it stuck on gear 2 and use to make a louder noise if I decided to move faster.

Just yesterday, a full tank fuel of 64,000 naira performed magic as i got a empty tank on getting to Ibadan.

I had to return back to lagos immediately i noticed the car is taking too much fuel and the highest gear i could drive with is the 2nd gear.

Please is there anyone in the house that is familiar with this issue in GX470 or the after upgraded to prado.

What is the cause of this issue? Is it the battery change?

Please take, shifting to D, R and more is aways done smoothly.

Please help.

I don't have to use to do expensive gear fix or jumping from one mechanic to the other.

Instead of enjoying your car like that. You go upgrade 😀😀🤣

Scan your vehicle

Could be a faulty valve body or ecu.

I think you should start first by scanning your car.
It's possible the car has erased Its memory or probably have gone into LIMP mode when you removed the battery.

First start by scanning the car and see if there's any code.

Yes. I scanned the complain was the ABS

Start from there

Abs has no relation to stuck gear. My car wey the abs dey off today on tomorrow.still dey move.work.
Alaye your gear don sapa
I won't say it has gone into lump mode
Bekos limp mode..your speedometer no go reqch 3k rpm.

Check ypur knock sensors
Check if oil still guage for gear.
If after every. Your fibre fit don burn.

Why it's called lexus.even if plugs don die.lexus go still move...but u go buy fuel taya.

God made it as lexus gx 470
But oppression and lack of contentment,
Pressure made u to take it to prado level.
Infact I no sabi how una dey reason sometimes.
Oppression is too much.
Gx470..tho na old model suv but e still stand tall.

[Kindly tell the mechanic to check the ABS sensor on the wheels.
He can loose and clean then test drive. author=Renwess post=136726198]Yes. I scanned the complain was the ABS[/quote]
