This fluid is a specific formulation of automatic transmission fluid engineered for use in certain Toyota vehicles. It’s designed to provide the necessary lubrication, friction characteristics, and cooling properties required for optimal automatic transmission performance in compatible models. Its composition is carefully balanced to ensure smooth shifting, prevent wear, and maintain consistent operation across a range of temperatures.
The importance of using the correct fluid cannot be overstated. It is formulated to meet the specific requirements of the transmissions it is designed for. Using a different or incompatible fluid can lead to diminished performance, increased wear and tear, and potentially costly transmission damage. Its introduction marked an advancement in transmission fluid technology, offering improved performance and durability compared to earlier formulations, and extending transmission life.
