your mechanic is misinformed.

the only and correct way to check CVTF level in this gearbox is from the bottom sump nut with engine running and temperature between 35-45C, there should be a drip only and nothing more.

There is a way to check it at full hot temperature but it requires a vacuum pump, a vacuum chamber, a fluid pump and a toyota SST that you adjust to required level and use that as testing apparatus in the sump plug. I dont think that its even at dealer/showrooms in Pakistan at the moment.

If your mechanic simply removed the plug marked TC and said "set hai" then dont take your car to him for anything at all. He obviously is not informed about checking fluid level in new toyota auto gearboxes. His technique to just open the bolt and wait for something to drip from there is only good for oldschool manual gearboxes where its filled to the bolt hole, The auto is not.

Thank you very much Tyrone and Xulfiqar.

One last thing, in attached pic the red round mark is the right transmission oil filling point?

hammadsiddiqui1976 (hammadsiddiqui1976) 2015-10-01 15:18:36 +0500 #187

What measure do i hv to take while opening this bolt?

Xulfiqar (Xulfiqar) 2015-10-01 15:44:20 +0500 #188

no its not the fill bolt - this thread has some wrong information in it.

The fill bolt is the bolt marked TC.

the level is checked by removing the drain plug. when between 35-45C it should only drip 1 drop per second and the car should be perfectly level when checking the level, if its not perfectly level, the reading will be bad

@xulfiqar

Can you please give your kind expert advice on following questions,

Should one get transmission oil changed exactly at 40000 km of running or there is some flexibility?
Mine Toyota Vitz model 2009 has run for almost 43000 km. I don't have any issues. It is running smoothly. So, should i get transmission oil change immediately, or is it safe to wait for couple of thousands of more kms?

@xulfiqar bhai

u are saying that the first pic is not the actual oil filling point whereas 2nd pic is the right transmission oil filling point.

I have a 07 toyota vitz, fitted with a 410 cvt transmission, the only OEM type of fluid I can find is the cvt FE variant, would anyone tell me if I can use the CVT "FE" instead of the CVT TC fluid?
regards

Thanks alot bro for such an indepth and informative post. Really glad to see this now i can change my CVT oil with confidence. Thanks once again.

Xulfiqar (Xulfiqar) 2015-10-12 11:40:51 +0500 #195

yes - the second pic is the filling port

Xulfiqar (Xulfiqar) 2015-10-12 11:41:39 +0500 #196

find the original CVT TC oil. - Whereabouts are you that you cannot find the TC oil?

Xulfiqar (Xulfiqar) 2015-10-12 11:43:01 +0500 #197

the change interval is highly dependant on driving style - do you exclusively drive in the city?

jar99 (jar99) 2015-10-12 14:35:41 +0500 #198

I think 70% on motorways/highways and 30% in cities.

hi, greetings from from Paraguay - South America!!!the only original type of fluid I can find here is the CVT "FE", for the newer 411 CVT transaxel
what would be the consequences of getting an oil changed with this "FE" variant?
I think Iam going to end up... changing with a universal type of CVT fluid

Hi,

I just recently using generic CVT fluid for my sienta 2004 ( I flushed the transmission oil). If I want to change back to genuine toyota cvt oil, is it advisable to have the transmission oil reflushed? Or is it enough by changing the oil gasket? I feel like the car is shifting to lower gear when I'm about to stop in the red light. is this because i use the generic transmission oil?

Please advice.
