Review on Idemitsu 30040093-95300C020 TLS (T-IV) ATF - 5 Quart | Automatic Transmission Fluid for Toyota, Lexus, Scion by Dino Burks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality oil - oils and fluids

Unscrew the cap and fill in Toyota Corolla 2006: Simply unscrew the cap and fill in fresh oil. The oil and filter were changed at the dealer for 90,000 after the second owner bought the car from a private individual. Probably changed for the first time. This car was 300 miles away and being used by a college student. I decided to just drain 3 liters of oil by opening the sump plug at 124,700 km. One of the worst gear oils I have ever seen. You will likely need to do another change at or before 136k for a second flush and then visit the dealer at or before 150k for a filter and oil change. Very cheap insurance when changing about every 24,000 and in alternation with oil and filter changes, because if the gearbox works, you have to look for a lot of money for a new gearbox. Toyota got it right with the new idea of a transmission drain plug. But I do not agree with the replacement interval of the manual.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • A little change
