    I have a 2011 4x4 TRD off road. The manual says Toyota type I-IV for 4 speed and Toyota WS for 5 speed. Is there a way to tell besides trying to count gear shifts?

    If you have the 2.7L 4cyl engine you have the 4spd A340F transmission, if you have the 4.0L V6 you have the 5 spd A750F transmission.
    The A340 has a dipstick, the A750 does not and has a fluid level check procedure.

    On the 5 speed you can use WS or Valvoline Maxlife.
