Gearbox oil for multimode transmission.
Hello everyone,
I searched the forums but haven't found a clear answer. My little Yaris is turning 1 year old, so i decided to give him a little "gift"-I decided to check the transmission oil and to replace it after a year to remove all the particles that left from the break-in period. the manual clearly states that "a toyota genuine gear oil LV API-4 75W is recommended". This is a single grade oil. All the oils i have found are 75W90 multigrade. is it safe to put a multi grade oil in the gearbox? also, i haven't found any manufacturers,and can anyone recommend me about a manufacturer?
