Toyota Type T-4 is the recommended fluid, WS is for 2010 Toyotas upwards.

You are correct sir. Even though there isn't much viscosity difference. Changing the filter is usually key as washing doesn't give the same effect as a new one sometimes.

Ok my Car does not move on 'D' early in the morning and after long parks. Most times, I start by shifting to D1 and drive for about 2-3 minutes before engaging the D, by which time it works very well.

Please what could be wrong?

Hi, I experienced similar issue on my Honda accord 01 I4. The car doesnt drive on D4(equivalent to D on Toyota trannys) at all. It stalls when its on D4. so i use D1 to move the car, and then switch through D2, D3, D4. Practically i drive it like a manual grin

Checks from a trusted mechanic suggested the tranny was going dead and needed to be changed. Ignorantly i continued to use the car like that while saving up for a replacement tranny. unfortunately, my engine cranked in the process and i had to replace both engine and transmission.

Two weeks after changing the tranny and engine, the car was driving smoothly and then suddenly, it began to stall like the previous transmission was. I was heartbroken because i thought i had surpassed this tranny issue. I met a mech that specialised on tranny and he checked it. He ended up replacing the tranny switch, serviced the tranny and my car was back to normal, only to start the stall again, 2days after.

Finally it turned out there was an electrical issue. A rewire guy came and worked on it (cost me 4k) and that's the end of my experiencing stalling tranny. Its been 4months down the line and i tell you i have not experienced any issue with the tranny.

I should have worked on the electrical before changign the former gear but i learnt the hard way.

My suggestion to you is to check for electrical issue first. a rewire should check first, then you can go ahead to service tranny. Note that my mech guy brought down the engine and decoupled the transmission in order to service it. cost me 12k or 15k, cant remember now

Yes, in Surulere I did not deal with him directly as it was my mechanic that contacted him. My mechanic works strictly on gearbox.
