    Anyone change their transmission/gear oil for their PC before? The service center told me I need to put the car there for 2 days, say something about calibration needed. As far as I know, it should be just a normal drain & fill process. Wonder if the guy con me cause I'm trying to get it done during my 2nd free service (no labor fees)

    LIARS! easy diy, see appropriate threads, or have dealer do it for about $120.

    You can get it done, but it won't be free, obviously. Shouldn't take longer than an oil change.

    Thanks for the reply. Now I need to make an official complaint to Toyota. If the SC can lie about a simple "drain & fill" job, it's anybody guess what will they say about other more serious matters (warranty claims, etc)
