toyota T-IV is crap....sorry...but its junk. replace it with valvoline max life or equivalent royal purple or mobil 1 lubricant.
they put that crap in tons of cars claiming it lasts over 100k miles...BS. toyota 4 fluid didnt even make it to 25k miles on my wifes aveo before it was black and smelled burnt...and she babies the car...seen the same results on toyotas and lexus vehicles and other imports with that crappy junk comming into my shop. the stuff is garbage. and besides, what would you need "real extreme raing oil" in a automatic yaris anyway? my stripped down manual yaris with a few mods can't even get out of its own way let lone need anything with extreme racing specifications... my advice, dump some max life in it, and dont power brake or neutral drop the econoboxes poor little auto trans.
