Default Toyota body grease and chassis lubricant

Toyota P.N. 08887-02007 is a synthetic yellow high-quality O.E.M.

"lubicating grease appropriate for the auto tilt away, steering column, power locking hub, window regualtor, door lock and so on." Perhaps someone can interpret the Japanese text.

Solved operating issues with all of the above, including seat track mechanisms..to like new.







Toyota P.N. 04007-76133 is utilized in window tracks...and other areas. The syringe assembly incorporates a rectangular-shaped needle for controlled application of the grease exactly where you want it in hard to reach areas.

Yeah and that little tiny jar of grease is only $54. Gosh for that it should be a huge container. Huge rip.
AND NOTICE NON SILICON never use silicon on body stuff.
It is also used for the power antenna as well as the other stuff listed. Where to get it cheaper???????????

Back from the dead! Does anyone know where this can be had for a reasonable price? Is there an alternative out there that’s just as good?

Dug around online and found a thread here: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/toy...eally.1250707/

According to one of the users there is a technical data sheet from Japan which lists the Toyota part number and specifies that it’s a DOW product called Molykote YM-102. The Toyota part number is listed here in the top right:



Now, I don’t speak Japanese but the number is there, and the product is sold in the same 50 gram jar as the Toyota one, so I’ll take him at his word.

I found it for $14 and change here: https://m.yoycart.com/Product/577210246574/

Problem here is that it’s in China and shipping from China right now is a disaster. I’m gonna call a few North America distributors Monday or Tuesday and see if we can get it stateside. If so, this should prove to be MUCH MORE economical than the Toyota product at $54+ everywhere I’ve seen it.

I was looking for the same stuff but unfortunately Molykote doesn't sell it to the general public.
Neither YM-102 nor YM-103.
There is Molykote EM-30L which seems to me to be a replacement lubricant for plastic / plastic and plastic / metal pairs.
It can be bought in smaller sizes for a much lower price.
Plastic / rubber applications:
-45 to +150C Multipurpose synthetic/high loads/good adhesion MOLYKOTE® YM-103 Grease
-45 to +130C Multipurpose synthetic/high loads/fiber reinforced MOLYKOTE® EM-30L Grease
Composition:
YM-102, YM-103:
• Polyalphaolefin
• Lithium soap
• Special solid lubricants
EM-30L:
• Polyalphaolefin
• Lithium soap
• PTFE, etc.
