Micah Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Be careful when you go to a transmission shop or the dealership. Both the toyota dealer and the transmission shop put dextron 3 into my transmission. Both insisted the it was the replacement for type 2 fluid, but I insisted that the dealer use the type 4 toyota fluid (cost 5 dollars a quart and the entire job cost 175 dollars). They wound up flushing it again with 10 quarts (this is what their machine said it cut off at). Type 4 was expensive, but I feel better that it is in my transmission. Everything I've read says to use type 4. Was I correct? I have the 96 sc400 v8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzz30 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 when you put in dextron fluid the trans kinda shifts funny. i found this out when my tranny was leaking and thats all i had around till i did a thorough flush after buying a case of type V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
