    Bought some type IV atf fluid. I received fluid with the part number (00279-000T4-6S) aka synthetic. Will this be a problem for a 201,000 mile original transmission 2001 v8 tundra?

    ‘00-02 transmissions take DexIII or higher fluid. ‘03-04 T-IV. ‘05-06 WS.

    Yes, that's the one ^^. Your truck takes the same as mine. I'm looking at the bottle from my seat right now.

    Yup also what I use for my power steering. Since our trucks don’t use standard power steering fluid. I’m Mobil1 on oil, and Valvoline on ATF and grease. But I don’t judge others on their choices as long as it’s what your OEM calls for.
