What type of Transmission oil do i need?

I have a 1995 Celica Gt what type of transmisson oil do i need to when i change it? I never recieved the manual for the car.What type of Transmission oil do i need?
You should use dextron 3 tanny fluid as per motors manuelWhat type of Transmission oil do i need?
You should be able to get that information online. I take it you have an automatic transmission. You could just as easy call your auto parts store, they would know that information too. You should also ask about transmission filters as well. Your oil change guy should have all of this information too, come to think about it.
Call your local auto parts store and get them to look it up.





On second thought, call the closest Toyota dealer, ask for the service department and ask them.





Do not guess or take anyone's advice on this. Wrong fluid = a big mess and possibly damaged transmission.
theres three types of transmission fluids, Schuks or NAPA should tell you the right one when you go in, also if you pull out the transmission fluid dipstick it should tell you on the top what type of fluid to use
If you have an automatic transmission you use atf, that stands for automatic transmission fluid.





If it is manuel shift use manuel transmission fluid.
automatic use dextron, manual use 75w140 gear oil
talk to the dealer, buy from the dealer(may cost more, but will save trouble down the road)
