Genuine Parts - Antifreeze Gallon W (00272-1LLAC-01)

This is tremendous antifreeze. Genuine Toyota. Not fake Toyota, not some mystery liquid made in a factory nobody’s ever heard of. The real thing. Beautiful color. Very pink. Possibly the pinkest coolant I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of coolant. You pour it into a Toyota and the engine knows immediately—this is quality. It keeps the engine cool when it’s hot and keeps it from freezing when it’s cold. It does both. Incredible. A lot of people don’t know antifreeze can do that, but it can. And it’s genuine Toyota, made to Toyota specifications. The Japanese are very serious about this stuff. Tremendous attention to detail. They don’t want you pouring some bargain green swamp water into their beautiful cooling system, and frankly, neither do I. One gallon. Perfect amount. No guessing, no chemistry experiments in the driveway. Pour it in, bleed the system, and your Toyota is ready for many more years of tremendous service. I’ve tried to negotiate with Toyota on the price. They’re very tough negotiators. But you pay it because you want the right stuff.

Toyota quality it’s unmatched! Gotta have it!

It's DARK red and I believe to be genuine Toyota coolant. Used it in 2012 Camry SE with 4 cylinder motor. Flushed the system using 6 gallons of distilled water. Then drain. Topped off with 1 gallon of Toyota antifreeze and more distilled water. Makes a 53/47 mix. Directions for 2012 Toyota Camry SE with 4 cylinder engine Tools needed: Small pliers, 1 gallon of Toyota Antifreeze, 7 Gallons of Distilled water, catch pan and 4 feet of rubber hose around 1/8 inch inside diameter or similar. (Optional: 10mm socket and ratchet to remove plastic air dam under radiator. I didn't do this, but some find it easier to reach the radiator drain valve) 1) On COLD engine, remove radiator cap and set it to the side (you won't need it again until the end of project) Then open the drain valve on the bottom of radiator using pliers. 2) Let the radiator drain out. 3) Close the drain valve finger tight. 4) Fill radiator with Distilled Water. 5) With Radiator cap off, start engine and run until warm, paying attention to adding more distilled water as the air escapes and the water level drops. Be sure to turn on the heater, so water can circulate through the whole system. If you see foam, don't worry about it. It may take 20-30 minutes to get the engine completely warm. Shut engine off. 6) Get under car and open the drain valve on the bottom of radiator. Be careful not to get splashed as it will be hot. 7) After it stops draining, close the drain valve and fill with distilled water doing step 5 & 6 all over again until you've used 6 of the 7 gallons of distilled water. (Note: You will only need to run the car 10-15 minutes because it will be warm thus circulating the water throughout the system giving a good dilution of the old coolant. I periodically got the RPMs to 2,000 to help circulate the water) 8) After you've used the 6 gallons and the radiator is EMPTY, close the drain valve for the last time using pliers. DON'T over tighten the drain valve! It only needs to be finger tight, then just a slight snug with the pliers. It seriously takes very little tightening, so not the split the plastic drain port. Snug it! 9) Remove plastic cap on the radiator overflow reservoir. Using the 1/8 inch rubber hose, siphon the plastic clear overflow reservoir empty. Then make note of the "L" & "F" mark on the overflow reservoir. Fill the overflow half way to the "F" mark with distilled water. Then the rest of the way to "F" mark with Toyota Antifreeze. It doesn't need to be perfect as it will mix with whats in the radiator after a few drives. 10) Fill the radiator using the remaining Toyota Antifreeze. Start engine and top off with distilled water. Put radiator cap on making sure it's all the way on. That's important. Some people will get it crooked, so make sure it's on right. 11) Drive the car around the neighborhood 15-20 minutes. Park the car allowing it to completely cool overnight. The next day check the coolant overflow reservoir. Remember the "L" & "F" marks? Fill it the "F" with distilled water only. Drive the car throughout the day as normal. Check the overflow reservoir the next morning and fill as needed. TIP: My driveway isn't level. It has a slight grade so I positioned the car down hill throughout the whole process of flushing. On the final fill using the Toyota Antifreeze, I re-positioned the car facing uphill to help rid the system of air. I feel this really helped the process.

What I needed and at a good price

Once again, So so happy to be able to find "Toyota Genuine" necessary fluid and parts which are required for your warranty and if you've had to deal with a dealership like mine. Whom I've felt have taken advantage of me. You can get the necessities needed for your warranty without having to deal with the dealership!!!

Seems legit. About the same price as local but I figured I would order it with some other stuff, and save some gas to go get it

A must have high price but piece of mind ,super quality can’t beat oem

Exactly what I needed to flush my Tundra's radiator out.

Product is exactly as described. This is the Toyota Long Life “red” that must be diluted with deionized/distilled water prior to use (unlike the Toyota Extra Long Life “pink” that comes pre-diluted). Shipping was also much faster than expected and arrived 4 days before the estimated date.
