| Capacity |
|---|
| 5.0 liters (5.3 US qts, 4.4 Imp. qts) |
Tech Tips
TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
Please contact any authorized TOYOTA dealer or repairer or another duly qualified and equipped professional for further details.
The thermostat open timing can be confirmed by pressing the inlet radiator hose by hand, and checking when the coolant starts to flow inside the hose.
Further add coolant into the radiator reservoir until it reaches the FULL line.
Press the No. 1 and No. 2 radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the coolant level.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant.
Using a 6 mm hexagon wrench, install the vent plug.
Bleed air from the cooling system.
Note
Before starting the engine to warm up the engine, turn the A/C switch off.
While idling the engine for approximately 10 minutes, make sure the coolant remains at the FULL line by adding coolant as necessary.
After idling the engine for 10 minutes, add coolant until it reaches the B line.
| Capacity |
|---|
| Approximately 2.5 to 3.5 liters (2.6 to 3.7 US qts, 2.2 to 3.1 Imp. qts) |
|
B Line |
Tech Tips
The B line is the lower edge of the inner wall of the filler neck.
Close the radiator reservoir cap, and run the engine at 1500 to 2000 rpm for 5 minutes.
CAUTION:
Wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fans.
Tech Tips
The thermostat open timing can be confirmed by pressing the No. 1 radiator hose by hand, and checking when the SLLC starts to flow inside the hose.
Stop the engine and wait until the coolant cools down to ambient temperature.
Check the coolant level.
If the coolant level is below the FULL line, add coolant until it reaches the FULL line.

INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK
Start the engine. Make sure that there are no oil leaks from the area that was worked on.
INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK
CAUTION:
Do not remove the radiator reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.
Note
Before each inspection, turn the A/C switch OFF.
Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap tester.
Warm up the engine.
Using the radiator cap tester, increase the pressure inside the radiator to 118 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm2, 17 psi), and check that the pressure does not drop.
If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator and water pump for leaks. If no external leaks are found, check the heater core, cylinder block and head.
INSPECT FOR FUEL LEAK
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Note
Do not start the engine.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Select the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / Speed.

If no sound can be heard, check the integration relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connector.
Check for fuel leaks.
Check that there are no fuel leaks anywhere on the system after performing maintenance.
If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts as necessary.
INSPECT FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAK
If gas is leaking, tighten the areas necessary to stop the leak. Replace the damaged parts as necessary.
CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Warm up the engine, stop the engine and wait 5 minutes. The oil level should be between the dipstick's low level mark and full level mark.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.
Note
Do not fill engine oil above the full level mark.
Tech Tips
A certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the following situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be refilled in between oil maintenance intervals.
When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or after replacing the engine.
If low quality oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used.
When driving at high engine speed or with a heavy load, (when towing, or), when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently.
When leaving the idling for a long time, or when driving frequently through heavy traffic.
When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil may have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accurately.
