Hi everyone, i'm new here.
First of all, i'm from france, so i'll be talking in kilometres, litres and so on.
So i'm about to buy a 03 toyota corolla, it has 55000km at the clock, a 1.6 engine and a 4 speed auto transmission. It is going to be my first automatic.
As it still has the factory fill, I pulled the stick when i first went to see the car and the fluid looks very light red-brown, so it doesn't appear burnt.
I'm willing to change the fluid to have peace of mind, at least for the next 50000km.
I found out the fluid recommended to be Toyota T-IV, and my gearbox to be a Aisin-Warner A236E.
As a true believer in synthetic oils, i was wondering what synthetic you would advise me to put in that gearbox, or if i should stick with toyota's stuff.
Thanks
