paul_h Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Having read through a lot of posts on the subject the general thinking is that for the automatic gearbox you should use the Toyota ATF T-IV fluid, If I was having trouble getting some and needed to fit my gearbox asap is there an alternative available at a local motor factors or Halfords etc? It wouldn’t be for a full flush just filling the torque convertor and a topup Are there any options out there? paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Toyota Type-IV ATF is still available from main dealer. I bought some no more than 2 months ago from them, but it wasn't cheap(£45ish). I think the part number was:08886-82025. Comes in a 5l grey plastic can. Luckily I'm quite friendly with my local Toyota parts guy so he took the time to search for it instead of fobbing me off with Type-II. For some bizarre reason it's listed on their EPC as Power Steering Fluid, but the can most definitely says Type-IV ATF fluid on the front of it.
