Jun 27, 2012  2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser 4.0 DOHC manual transmission 4wd What type of oil/fluid do I use for transfer case? What type - Answered by a verified Toyota Mechanic. How do you change the transmission fluid on a 2007. Where do i check the transmission fluid in my 2007 toyota fj cruiser? The correct transmission fluid for a manual 2002 PT Cruiser. Jul 24, 2012  1) Get the transmission warm, drive around some. You want the fluid and tranny warm to make it easier for the drain bolt to come out and fluid to flow. Then Park on level/flat ground Optional Part There is a skid plate/cover that covers the bottom portion of the engine and transmission. Toyota left an opening where the drain plug is, but its barely bigger than the bolt.

Rear pinon bearing making noise. Toyota wanted almost $5000 to replace entire rear gear assembly. Other alternative aftermarket parts around $2500. Ended up buying a used 2010 fj rear axle assembly with 100k km on it from an auto wrecker for $1600. Some scrapping, sanding, decreasing and POR-15. Very easy tear out and install considering. The 2010 8.2 rear end is said to be stronger than the original 8 inch 2007 rear end so hopefully this one will still be working when I turn 500,000 km. ;)

problem #3

FJ Cruiser

  • Manual transmission
  • 28,000 miles
I think by now it's fairly obvious that Toyota has a real problem with the ra61F 6 speed manual transmission. This should be covered under warranty, because its Pilot shaft/ bell housing issue that causes the T/O bearing to make noise. I can't believe that Toyota haven't done anything about this. Someone's got to get this out there, and get media attention drawn to this.

FJ Cruiser

  • Manual transmission
  • 0 miles
I own a 2007 Toyota Fj cruiser with a manual transmission. The throttle management software is a joke at best and dangerous at worst. The vehicle engine RPM will not go below 12-1800rpm when the vehicle is moving unless the speed is somewhere below 5mph. This can be very annoying at times and dangerous at others. Driving on ice, towing a trailer, driving in hilly terrain. There is no engine braking available at any speed above 5mph. When the software does finally close the throttle completely it does so abruptly causing a jerky condition that can lead to loss of control on ice. At 20mph, for instance driving in a school zone, the throttle cannot be set to maintain a steady speed. The vehicle alternates between accelerating and almost complete throttle shut off. There is no in between. I have seen this same behavior when driving off road in steep terrain. Not only is it annoying but it is dangerous. I have had the vehicle to Toyota twice and they claim it is normal for this model and that there is nothing that can be done. The other thing that it does is hold the last RPM for several seconds when shifting between gears. Not so much dangerous as annoying and causes excessive wear on driveline components and is also extremely wasteful of fuel.

Toyota Fj cruiser clutch pedal sticks when cold. The truck becomes unpredictable of what its going to do. Toyota said its been working on a fix for over a year now and I haven't heard anything. If you look at Toyota forums there are a lot of complaints.
