What transmission fluid should I use in my car? 94 lexus gs300 2jz-ge

 

Pretty sure its Toyota ATF - Type T-IV you can call the Toyota dealer to make sure or check with Auto Parts stores. Don't go to the Lexus Stealership though lol

 

Yeah the Toyota ATF type IV is the way to go.

 

I'm using Royal Purple... Expensive stuff but It's made me a believer.

 

Did you do a complete flush with the Royal Purple trans fluid or did you just drain and fill it? Did yoi notice any shift quality difference?

 

Hmm also question when I shift into drive there is a slight whine but it doesn't do it when I am in neutral. Only when sitting stationary... What could that be. Also when I go to shift from neutral to drive anyone else experience a jerking forward motion.

 

I would drain and fill it yourself first. It sounds like that is mostly your issue and its not going to harm your car. Mine Jerks a bit i think its just loud and clanky getting into gear, notice it more on an incline.

 

Royal Purple huh... Places like autozone should have it correct?>

 

i put toyota t-iv in my 93, when i first got it it was slow and sluggish. ive done 2 drain and refills within 3000 miles, fluid was pretty brown on the first drain, i have felt a dramatic change in the way it shifts and drives now.

 

I used redline fluid in every one of my cars. I did a full drain then a flush. My trans shifts firm and smooth. No whine or jerking.
