Regularly check transmission fluid levels: Check for leaks and inspect the fluid’s color should be red o r pink brown means it’s old o r burned.
Avoid aggressive driving: Hard acceleration and rapid deceleration can put extra strain on the transmission seals.
Use high-quality ATF fluid: Ensure you use the fluid recommended by Toyota for your specific model to maintain the system’s health.
Inspect for leaks after rough terrain driving: After long trips o r driving over potholes, check for fluid spots underneath the vehicle.
