For fluid, stick with Toyota WS ATF or BG Product's ATF - there's an additive in the link above which may be endorsed or suitable, you'd need to enquire to find out for sure.

Filter and gasket.

I am about to do it, so the filter is outside and easy access?
And how many quarts it uses, cause the dealer told me only something like 6 quarts.
With those questions solved, then it is pay time LOL

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A TEMP GUAGE IT MUST BE DONE BY THE TRANMISSION ECU. IF YOU HAVE IT IMPROPERLY FILLED IT WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE TRANSMISSION DAMAGE.

I researched this back when my car had 60,000 miles on it and I found exactly what is quoted here. That's when I decided to have the dealer do it. With 170,000 miles on my 2007 GS350, I will have the dealer perform its third transmission flush at 180,000. The transmission shifts so smooth after its done.
