    I’m looking at what synthetic oil to use in my 2003 Tacoma Extended Cab and I did a vin search on Toyota.com and it told me my trans type was 4AT. Is that different than the A43D, A340F, and A340E?

    Thanks!

    Look at the VIN tag on your door jamb. Tells you everything, trans, final drive ratio, color codes, etc.
