The tranny fluid is Toyota ATF Type T-IV. AWD has a transmission filter, FWD has only a screen. Still I will drop the pan to clean the magnets.southernguy10 wrote:Thanks! You probably did see it on Craigslist. I wound up getting it off the guy for $2600. He had gotten a new vehicle and this was just sitting so he wanted it out of his yard. I think I did pretty good on it. I'm not sure on the ecu recall if it's been done or not. I saw on another post about the window regulator screws recall and mine is doing the popping noise when rolling down they described, so I'll probably take it to the dealership and let them check it for recalls and do what it needs. Are there rrecommended/preferred brands and types of fluids? Besides the obvious 5/30 oil and specific transmission fluid. Also the door catches, is there a fix for them or just replace them when they don't work right? Thanks for any help

Thanks. The springs on mine are bright green I noticed when I put it up on the rack at my brothers shop. Are the Tein springs green or do I have something else on there?1gnvibe wrote:Looks sharp! That drop looks a lot like Tein S Tech springs. I put mine on about 6 weeks ago and have been loving it ever since. I'd say it rides even better than stock. Welcome to the Vibe Tribe.
I do believe Tein springs are indeed green.southernguy10 wrote: The springs on mine are bright green I noticed when I put it up on the rack at my brothers shop. Are the Tein springs green or do I have something else on there?
