A760E Solenoid Kit 2008, new and ready to install. Fits the A760E. Ships fast from the USA.
This is a new shift solenoid kit for the Aisin A760E six-speed, listed for the 2008 Lexus GS350. If your GS is stuck in one gear, skipping a gear on the way up, dropping into a limp mode after a cold start, or showing a check engine light with S1 through S4 solenoid performance codes, the on/off solenoids on the valve body are one of the first things to look at.
The product photo shows five on/off solenoids, the short-bodied style with the mounting tab and single connector. In the A760E family those positions are S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR. The long linear solenoids (SLT line pressure, SLU lockup and the SL1-SL3 clutch apply solenoids) are not pictured, so if your code or symptom points at one of those, the nine-piece A760E shift solenoid set is the better fit.
S1 through S4 open and close to stage the shift valves, and the transmission computer picks a combination for each gear. The SR solenoid shares the same oil circuit. Sonnax points out a detail that matters when you diagnose this unit: on these six-speeds the on/off solenoids are fed regulated line pressure from the manual valve with no restricting orifice, so a leak anywhere in that feed starves all of them at once. When that happens the computer blames whichever solenoids were commanded for the gear that failed, even though every coil may test fine.
Those performance codes can also set when a clutch is slipping, because the ratio check cannot tell a weak solenoid from a worn pack. Road test with a scan tool, watch commanded gear against actual ratio, and check the pan for friction material before ordering. Measure each solenoid's resistance and bench-click it with a fused 12-volt lead; our bench testing transmission solenoids guide walks through it. If shifts are late and firm rather than missing, the Aisin harsh or delayed shift guide helps separate pressure faults from mechanical ones.
The listing names the 2008 Lexus GS350 with the A760E six-speed. Toyota and Lexus used several closely related six-speed codes in that era, including the A761E and A960E, and their solenoid styles are not all identical. Read the code on the transmission ID plate, compare the connector colors and mounting tabs to the photo, or send us your year and VIN before you order. Every part we carry for this family is on the Aisin transmission page, and a 2007 A760E solenoid kit is also listed.
If the pan shows heavy clutch debris, solenoids alone will not fix it; plan for a rebuild with a kit such as the A760E master rebuild kit.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
No. The photo shows five on/off solenoids (the S1-S4 and SR style). SLT, SLU and the SL1-SL3 linear solenoids are not part of this kit; the nine-piece set covers those.
Only if the S2 solenoid or its circuit is the cause. The same code sets when a clutch slips or when solenoid feed pressure leaks past the bore plug behind SR, so road test with a scan tool and inspect the pan first.
Check the ID plate on the transmission case or your build data. If it reads A761E or A960E, or you are not sure, send us the year and VIN and we will confirm before you order.
Toyota WS (World Standard) ATF. Set the level with the engine running and the fluid at operating temperature, using the check plug.
Yes. Clear the codes and reset the transmission adaptive values with a scan tool, then drive through all six gears so the computer learns shift timing on the new parts.
