Lexus ES300 Shift Cable

Lexus ES300 Shift Cable provides the driver with simple and accurate control over the automatic gearbox by connecting it to the transmission manual lever using a manual control lever console shifter. Earlier models throughout the ES300 range saw Lexus and many of its rivals stick to rigid rods or levers, but this time the move to a flexible Shift Cable reduced cabin vibration and freed up interior space for the popular floor mounted shifter. Within the ES300 family, the Lexus design remained consistent, that of a steel core inside a low friction sheath, but minor updates were made to improve the coating materials to fight stretch and corrosion, keeping the Shift Cable responsive mile after mile. Unlike today's electronic shift by wire systems which rely on sensors instead of a mechanical connection, the ES300 still retains the feel of a physical Shift Cable which allows the driver to immediately feel when their gear is engaged. Routine inspection for fraying, bending, or excessive play can ensure the Lexus sedan continues to reward owners, and replacement of a worn Shift Cable is straightforward thanks to its accessible routing beneath the console.

Should you need to purchase new auto parts for your vehicle, we strongly suggest you consider the genuine Lexus ES300 Shift Cable available on LexusPartsNow.com. Our OEM Lexus ES300 Shift Cable come with the reassurance of the manufacturer's warranty, a hassle-free return policy, and speedy delivery service, all at affordable prices online.
