dude Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 Originally posted by mcanny Type T-II as per the manual? Exactly my point , when the supra came out type IV didnt exist and type II was the stuff to use , so why do we pay 4 times as much for type IV .

michael Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 Interesting stuff, I was just on my other PC and the owners manual was next to it - so you are saying that the manual is wrong due to it being a bit out of date and there is a type IV to use now? I want mine changing because I don't believe that Toyota did it when I had my last major service so it's good to know which one I should be getting my chap to put in.

dude Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 Its just everyone says 'You must use Type IV ' but when the sup came out there was no type IV , the reason im interested is that due to the way i use the car i have an issue with excess heat in the box !!! , there is no allternative to type IV(synthetic wise ) but i believe there is to type II , so what gives , the Toyota manual says Type II but these days everyone says type IV (BTW i still use Type IV in customers cars ) just like to say theres so many scare posts it would be good to know the truth Dude:flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 Sounds like you need a bigger cooler not a different fluid. I thought the issue was Toyota don’t make type II anymore and some dealers were saying they would use type III as part of the service. AFAIK Type II and III are not compatible with certain seals, so it shortens box life. Hence the must use Type IV comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kean Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 I would reccomend Type T IV. This is what we use in our built transmissions and have had no problems so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Going back to the subject of auto fluid, I have been sold some Valvoline type D ATF by Fensport, is this the same stuff as the typeIV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
