Assuming I keep my '01 F/awd RX300 until the transaxle (prematurely) fails, I will rebuild the transaxle but modify the drive system to R/awd. Now at ~75,000 miles.
 
Remove the front drive spider gear from the center diff'l, weld the rear drive spider gear to its side gear, install a VC from the '99 or '00 RX300. SOLID coupling to the rear driveshaft and only VC, Viscous Clutch, coupling to the front drive.
 
R/AWD RX300...!!

This may be a silly question, but what is "OAT"?

This may also be a silly question, or at least a lazy question, but does the new Venza have the same AWD system as the 2010 RX350?

OAT, Outside Air Temperature.
 
And yes, it appears that the new Venza and the 2010 RX350 share the very same F/awd system.

Thanks, Willard. You're The Man when it comes to AWD systems! I don't pretend I understand most of what you try to tell us. But I know you like BMW's X-drive, Acura's SH-AWD, and you're not a fan of the re-active, FWD-biased systems. Which other systems out there do you like?

Would you mind tell me how much did you pay for your RX350? I assume you have Nav package. Thanks for your help.
