Hello Guys,

I am looking for a DYI Automatic Transmission Fluid flush, for a 2009 four (4) cylinder 2TR-FE.

TRANSMISSION: ATM: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
GEAR SHIFT TYPE: 4FC: ATM, 4-SPEED FLOOR SHIFT

I have donned several searches but find info on the ATF flush only for the 6 cylinder engine.

This is the Filter my transmission use.
Part 35330-60030 : STRAINER ASSY, VALVE BODY OIL http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_G_200605_TOYOTA_LAND+CRUISER+PRADO_TRJ120L-GKPEK_3512.html?hl=35330

Also, I am thinking on using VALVOLINE MAX ATF. Reading the product info, it say is WS compatible. http://www.valvoline.com/pdf/maxlife_atf.pdf

Also I can find here in my country MOTUL MULTI ATF that also is WS compatible
https://www.motul.com/system/produc...data_sheets/149/Multi_ATF_(GB).pdf?1335542544

My automatic transmission has a dipstick and checking the ATF is brown color so I want to flush it and also change the filter.

Any advice?

The Toyota Dextron transmission fluid is one of the few things they sell at the dealer that is actually inexpensive. Flushing the torque converter is a bit controversial. When I baselined my "new to me" truck, I wanted to replace the fluid. I dropped the pan the first time, clean the magnets and screen and replaced the gasket and lost fluid. The Toyota rubber gasket does a good job with no sealant if you don't overtorque the bolts. Consider using a screwdriver-style nut driver or an inch/lb torque wrench.

For the next 2 oil changes, I drained the transmission pan and replaced that fluid. After the third one, I seemed to have nice, clean fluid and no issues.
