OUTLINE
The cooling system is a pressurized, forced-circulation type.
A thermostat with a bypass valve is located on the water inlet housing to maintain suitable temperature distribution in the cooling system.
An aluminum radiator core is used for weight reduction.
A water-cooled type engine oil cooler is used.
Toyota Genuine Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) is used.
On the models compliant with EURO 4 and EURO 5 emission regulations, a water-cooled type EGR cooler that is integrated with a bypass is used.

SPECIFICATION
Engine Coolant
Toyota Genuine SLLC is used. Maintenance interval is as shown in the table below:
| Engine Coolant Type | Toyota Genuine Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology is a combination of low phosphates and organic acids.) Do not use plain water alone. | |
| Maintenance Intervals | First Time | 160000 km (100000 miles) |
| Subsequent | Every 80000 km (50000 miles) | |
| Color | Pink | |
Tech Tips
SLLC is pre-mixed (50% coolant and 50% deionized water). Therefore, no dilution is needed when SLLC in the vehicle is added or replaced.
If LLC (red-colored) is mixed with SLLC (pink-colored), the interval for LLC (every 40000 km/ 25000 miles or 24 months whichever comes first) should be used.
Thermostat
| Thermostat Opening Temperature | 80°C to 84°C (176°F to 183°F) |
