Can a Toyota T-IV be used in a Dexron 3?
Stick to fluid that specifies suitable for Dexron III, why risk it. Unless the dealer can produce a TSB that supersedes TC003-99, which says T-IV is NOT a substitute for Dexron II or III, then DON’T put T-IV in Dexron transmissions. The U-series transmissions use a partial-lock torque converter that’s not in earlier A-series.
