Anything that lists itself as a suitable replacement for Toyota JWS 3324 or Toyota WS, would be good.

I checked with Mobile 1 (Exxon) and they don't have anything on the U.S. market yet.

I hope this helps someone.

 

10. You don't mention Amsoil's offering. I've used it in both a Tundra and a Camry with good results.

I thought that I'd also read that Redline recommends D4 now, not D6 for WS.

 

In my opinion, Gear Cruncher was wrong. Not only that, but his post was somewhat unoriginal. It's a repost from another forum (BITOG) dating back to 2008.

For what it's worth, when it comes to fluids, Toyota does not approve or endorse any other brands.

All the fluids in the OP meet or exceed the standard, for Toyota WS JWS 3324.

This thread is for folks who want a simple place to find alternatives to Toyota WS.

 

Will add it. My list was not meant to be comprehensive, but happy to add it. Thanks!

 

Will check...

 

Fair enough, respect to you, unsubbed, take it easy.
And I do plan to change fluids away from the WS type!

 

Verified and added to OP.

Double checked, D6 ATF is correct.

 

Caution: it is likely not all fluids in the list are intermixable with Toyota-branded WS. Not a big deal if you are doing a flush according to the guide (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/diy-full-flush-for-automatic-transmission.68462/), but could be a concern if you are doing just a drain and fill.

 

Here's another one.This is not an endorsement or recommendation however.

http://www.walmart.com/ip/Super-Tech-DEXRON-VI-Automatic-Transmission-Fluid-1-qt/17134873

Super Tech DEXRON VI Automatic Transmission Fluid, 1 qt:

• Specially formulated with premium base stocks and advanced additive technology
• Officially licensed and GM-approved
• Meets the requirements of General Motors automatic transmissions calling for DEXRON VI fluid
• Suitable for use where DEXRON II, DEXRON III, JASO M315 (1A), Toyota WS and Toyota T-IV fluids are recommended
• Protection against wear and transmission shudder
• Resistant to thickening due to high temperatures
• Provides friction stability to maintain smooth and consistent shift performance

 

Good find. I'll add it to the OP.

Thanks for your contribution.

 

Awesome!!

 

Uno mas compadre.

BTW, thanks for starting this list. Even if someone wanted to use only Toyota WS, you never know when you might be stranded and needing alternatives to get down the road. Always good to have options!

 

Here's a few more to add to your list.

Thread OP updated. Thanks so much!

 

What about Schaeffer's #204SAT All-Trans Supreme®?
In its TD sheet it says its compatible with these types of fluid:
GM Dexron II, II-D, IIE, III, III-E, III-G, III-H
Toyota Type-II, Type III
Toyota T-1V (JWS 3309)
Toyota WS (JWS 3309)

Does that mean I can run ONE fluid for both my power steering AND automatic transmission?

Also, would these two Mobil 1 ATF's fit the bill?
Mobil™ DEXRON-VI ATF
Mobil ATF 3309 - "recommended for service fill applications where Toyota T-IV (T4) or T-III (T3) are called for"

 

I have been Using AMSOIL Blue label and cap Signature Series ATF Fuel Efficient 100% Full Synthetic since new at 5,000 miles with a full Flush . flushed a second time with same Amsoil Fuel Efficient ATF Signature Series Synthetic at 37,000 miles and I do Drain pan and refill with 3.2 Qts AMSOIL ATF again every 10,000 miles after 37,000,did at 47,000, and at 53,000 miles and added Lubegard ATF DrTranny Anti Shutter and 10 oz of Lubegard Platinum ATF Protector. will add Lube gard w/ AMSOIL at every Drain and Fill again every 10,000 miles forever ! No Tranny Problems,runs cool in summer and no shudder or slippage !

 

Preventive maintenance is the best route to take, like you're doing. I baby my 2007 Camry the same way and I expect to get 500,000 mi out of her till she needs to be turned out to pasture.
