what are the headings to the table?
curious to know what the Os and Xs are for.
Aisin recommends to use Aisin's ATF AFW+ or AFS replacing Toyota T-IV.
Since Aisin is the manufacturer of ATs for any LS400, I think their recommendations are quite authentic. Next time when I change the ATF, I will be using Aisin ATF AFW+.
One thing I wonder is that Toyota ATF WS can't be used for LS400, but Aisin ATF AFW+ can be used for LS400 and LS430.

Saw that wide range listing that the WS type is covered by the AFW+, interesting. That was on an Australian site.
I use the stuff straight from the dealer. I'm sure you could use something else, but I don't usually mess around with transmissions. I always use the manufacturer recommended stuff to ensure I wont hurt the internals. It's not that expensive either, so no brainer for me.

Aisin manufactured our transmission and produces ATF TYPE T-IV for Toyota/Lexus and ATF AFW+.
Lubricants and hydraulic fluids have (arguably) improved over 25 years.
Still attempting to ascertain if attributes of AFW+ offer improvements over type IV.
Anyone with data of specifications?
Anyone who has switched to AFW+?
Are old and new fluids compatible??
Improved driveability cold and operating temperature??

How do you like the PDF file below?
It says that the Aisin AFW+ is fully synthetic.
I think you'll find most of answers.
According to local shop owners, this ATF works better than Toyota T-IV when it is cold.
They also commonly say that they don't need to stock Toyota T-IV and WS any more since it covers variety of models.
