Is there a Toyota T-IV ATF compatible fluid?
Buying it by the quart from Toyota is expensive.
Toyota recommends a full ATF change at 60K. Being done at a dealership, it's expensive.
Small shops don't have their machines set up with T-IV.
I was thinking about draining and refilling the ATF at 20K, 40K, 60K, 80K, etc.
Is this a reasonable plan, rather than paying Toyota at 60K to flush the transmission?
The car is a Pontiac Vibe, with a Toyota drive train; it's the 'twin' to the Matrix, and has the same engine 1.8L, and transmission as the Matrix and the Corolla; a 4 speed auto trans.
No mention is made of a transmission filter, in the owner's manual.
Does this transmission have one?
Thanks guys!
