There will be, and has been, alot of discussion on this question. You'll hear horror stories about every brand including the Toyota branded fluid. From a users standpoint, all I have used in my Toyota has been Mobil ATF and I have over 115,000 miles on my 1997 Camry. I do change the fluid every
15,000 miles for the differential and the transmission and have yet to have a problem.The primary reason I have used Mobil is cost.

When your dipstick or Owners Manual says Dexron II or III, then fine. When your specs call out for Toyota T-IV fluid (as more and more late model Toyotas do), then do not top off or replace with Dexron or Mercon.
