    I drive a Auris hybrid over in the UK (1.8 same as the Prius engine). I am going to change the ac condenser after it leaked and wanted to ask if anyone can confirm this pag oil (link at bottom) is the same as Toyota's ND-OIL 11?



    Thanks
    Rob

    Toyota oil is £100 a bottle so not really economical for just lubing the O-rings. I went with AIRCO-LUBE HYB-11 HYBRID for £10 and will get it re-gassed at Toyota (£70). I will let you know if the compressor dies in a few months!

    What's happen to your compressor? is it working in good condition?
    Can you recommended "AIRCO-LUBE HYB-11 HYBRID " for Toyota Hybrid 1.8?
