    I found this Aisin AFW+ to be compatible with Toyota ATF-WS. So I am wondering if anyone is using this fluid and whether it is causing any problem to their transmission.

    Although, it is stated in Aisin's website that this ATF is compatible with Toyota ATF-WS, it is in fact also compatible with a WIDE RANGE of other ATF standards.

    I am skeptical because they claim to be compatible with Toyota ATF Type-IV and ATF WS which in Toyota's own brand of ATF, both are not compatible to each other.

    This ATF is 60% the price of Toyota ATF WS in my place.

    Below is the comprehensive list of it's compatibility.

    PS. Aisin is the manufacturer for Toyota's ATF WS.

    If Toyota ATF WS is available where you are, I would use it. The additional expense is trivial in the long run.
