What kind of transmission fluid does a 2000 Corolla need?
I've seen some threads where people are saying that Dexron III is fine, but a mechanic has just told me that the Toyota-manufactured ATF (known as "Toyota Red") is the ONLY fluid that should be put into the transmission because if it mixes with another type then the mixture begins to coagulate, which is bad times.
Can anybody give me a 100% accurate rendering on this? Must a 2000 Corolla have ONLY the "Toyota Red," or can I use Dexron III?
Thanks a bunch.
