2017-2018
- →Using transmission fluid other than TOYOTA Genuine CVT Fluid FE may cause deterioration in shift quality, locking up of your transmission accompanied by vibration, and ultimately damage the transmission of your vehicle.
- →DO NOT use plain water alone. The fluid capacity is the quantity of reference.
- →SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for good fuel economy and good starting in cold weather. If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE 5W-20 oil may be used. However, it must be replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil change. The engine oil capacity is a reference quantity to be used when changing the engine oil. Warm up and turn off the engine, wait more than 5 minutes, and check the oil level on the dipstick.
- →Toyota recommends to use TOYOTA Genuine Manual Transmission Gear Oil LV to achieve optimal performance. Please be aware that depending on the particular characteristics of the gear oil used or the operating conditions, idle sound, shift feeling and/or fuel efficiency may be different or affected.
- →Your Toyota vehicle is filled with Toyota Genuine Differential Gear Oil at the factory. Use Toyota approved Toyota Genuine Differential Gear Oil or an equivalent of matching quality to satisfy the specification.
