So, my little IS(6AT) has almost 45KM and wish to have the Gear Box Oil Change, here is my question and thanks.

1.shoudl we use OEM Toyota ATF WS grade Oil, is it a must?

2.Can IS use a kind of exchage machine to change ATF?, or, we can just loose the srcew and let the used one go?

3.if yes, how many Liter of oil we need and how many for manully change?

thanks alot...

2IS's automatic tranny fluid do not need to be change. The fluid should last the life of your vehicle and is unchangeable, anyway.

Can't change the ATF enough to make it worthwhile, leave it as it is

Yep. And if you absolutely had to change it, you have to use a machine to pump it out if I remember correctly. But either way you don't have to change it, ever. Same goes for the differential fluids. They're all lifetime fluids. The only fluids you'll ever change is brake fluid and engine oil

At 45k km, it would be good to check the fluid level but you won't need a flush.

I could be wrong as I am new to the lexus community, but on the 60K service you are required to change the rear diff fluid on a 06 IS350.

Check the fluid level? there's no dip stick for the 2is to check.

It's not physically possible tO change a significant amount of fluid on an auto 2is

The diff fluid CAN be changed but the US maintenance schedule never calls to do so and without a mechanical LSD back there I've yet to see anyone offer a good reason to open the diff at all

My bad its only on the IS-F that you change the read diff oil

Yup... and the IS-F (all recent years anyway) actually gets a mechanical LSD, which the ISx50 sadly does not.
