Brake Fluid

High performance brake fluid is essential in keeping braking systems in top working condition. Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid that allows for the transfer of force into pressure. Because brake fluid is subject to high temperatures, it requires a high "boiling point" to avoid vaporizing.

Toyota Genuine Brake Fluid
Toyota Genuine Brake Fluid provides a higher 'Wet Boiling Point' which simply means that it provides maximum performance under extreme conditions. It also contains additives to prevent corrosion, sludge formation and brake fluid leakage.

Car Coolant

Your car coolant is crucial to your car's cooling system. The coolant contains glycol and water and is what prevents the engine from overheating. If your coolant level is consistently low, you may want to have a Toyota Service Technician check for a leak.

Premixed Super Long Life Coolant
In Australia, where the climate can vary dramatically, the anti-boiling and anti-freezing properties of 50/50 Premixed Super Long Life Car Coolant are invaluable.
For optimum performance and cooling efficiency, have the car coolant replaced at intervals in accordance with your Service & Warranty logbook or every 80,000kms.

Motor Oil

Changing your engine oil and filter regularly is one of the most important procedures you can do to extend the life and performance of your Toyota. If you do a lot of stop/start driving, drive in dusty, dirty conditions or do a lot of towing you should change your engine oil more frequently (either by time or distance, as recommended in your service handbook). Always ensure that your oil filter is changed every time your engine oil is.

Toyota Genuine oils and lubricants
Toyota Genuine Motor Oils have been specifically formulated for Toyotas to suit the diverse driving conditions your Toyota may encounter.
The engine oil provides complete engine protection against starting friction, heat stress and engine sludging for better performance and maximum engine life.
You can find out specific details for your Toyota in the additional service requirements in your Service & Warranty logbook.

Fuel Injector Cleaner

Deposits can build up on fuel injectors over time that can cause issues such as reduced engine power, poor fuel economy and increased emissions. Fuel Injector Cleaner can rapidly penetrate these deposits, breaking them down so they can be dissolved into the fuel and burnt as part of the combustion process. This can restore your engine to its new car performance.

Toyota Genuine Injector Cleaner
To maintain optimal performance, it is recommended that Toyota Genuine Injector Cleaner be used once every 2 years or 40,000kms or may be used as required to help restore engine performance.
Toyota Genuine Injector Cleaners are available for both petrol and diesel engines.
You can find out specific details for your Toyota in the additional service requirements in your Service & Warranty logbook.

Windshield Washer Additive

On average your windscreen wiper blades wipe the equivalent of 25 hectares of glass each year. Plain cold washer water cannot cope with all this grease and grime. Keeping your windshield washer fluid topped up allows you to keep a clean window when the drive gets messy.

Toyota Genuine Anti Smear Windscreen Washer Additive
Toyota Genuine Windscreen Washer Additive contains both grease cleaning additive and a rubber conditioner for your wiper blades. The result of having the windshield washer additive is cleaner windows through better performance and less strain on the wiper system.

Air Conditioner Treatment

Air Conditioner Treatment
Over time fungi and bacteria can form in your vehicles air conditioner, spreading germs and odours throughout your car. But if you give your air conditioner a disinfecting and deodorising treatment at your next scheduled service you can breathe fresh air again.
Getting air conditioner treatment regularly is both curative and preventative; helping to eliminate foul odours and providing long lasting anti-bacterial and antifungal protection.
To keep the air inside your car clean, ask your Toyota Service Advisor about having your air conditioner professionally treated by our expert technicians.
Your Toyota Service Advisor will also be able to see if your vehicle is equipped with a Cabin Air Filter.

Fuel Filters

Fuel is the lifeblood of your engine. Therefore, it is vital that it is totally free of any contaminants before it enters the workings of your engine. It is the role of the Fuel Filter to trap any foreign matter and provide a clean flow of fuel for smooth performance and engine longevity.
The longevity of your engine, and smooth performance of your vehicle relies on a clean flow of fuel. It is the role of fuel filters to capture any impurities that may have travelled into your fuel tank. The quality of a Fuel Filter can be best gauged by its ability to trap even the tiniest impurities.
Toyota Genuine Fuel Filters
 

Toyota Genuine Fuel Filter
Toyota Genuine Fuel Filters trap the smallest of particles. The thorough filtering process ensures clean fuel and smooth engine operation.
Specifically Designed for your Toyota
Toyota Genuine Fuel Filters are designed specifically for each Toyota model, to fit fuel lines precisely and therefore trap the tiniest of impurities.
High Quality Materials
Unlike some non-genuine fuel filters, Toyota Genuine Fuel Filters are constructed of high quality materials, which are both airtight and highly heat resistant - an important feature with petrol in the hot environment of an engine bay.
Superior Filter Construction
Toyota Genuine Fuel Filters are engineered to catch particles as small as ten microns, yet still maintain a smooth flow of fuel. Lesser quality filters use poorly constructed filter papers, which allow larger impurities to clog and corrode the engine, causing engine malfunction.
How to avoid the danger of a fuel leak
Only Toyota Genuine Fuel Filters are designed specifically for each individual model Toyota. They are constructed of high quality materials, which are both airtight and highly heat resistant. And most importantly, they are designed to fit fuel lines precisely. Other non-genuine filters may need to be 'forced' onto fuel lines, which can cause fuel leakages and increase the chances of creating a fire hazard.
When to replace your fuel filter
If you have your Toyota Service Centre service your car, then the Fuel Filter will always be replaced according to the servicing schedule.
 

Oil Filters

The Oil Filter is a low cost part that needs regular replacing. Essentially its role is as the name suggests - to filter and remove dirt particles from the oil as it flows through the engine. It also allows for efficient lubrication of the hundreds of precision moving parts in your car's engine. Many of these parts operate at thousands of movements per minute. Even the tiniest foreign matter in your engine can create excess friction and damage. Oil Filters help prevent potential engine damage from happening.
Maintaining the oil filter allows for:
Efficient lubrication
Long life engine performance & protection.
Toyota Genuine Oil Filters
 

Toyota Genuine Oil Filter
While the quality of the oil is vital to the performance of an engine, the quality of the Oil Filter is also crucial to the smooth operation and longevity of the engine. Only Toyota Genuine Oil Filters feature a dual-textured element to capture even the smallest particles.
There are three main features that determine the quality of an Oil Filter:

The Element
A Toyota Genuine Oil Filter features a dual-textured element - coarse on the outside, fine on the inside. This combination filters particles effectively and resists clogging. Non-genuine brands can be thin and finely meshed, making them prone to tearing and clogging, and as a result could need replacement more often.

Sealing Capability
A Toyota Genuine Oil Filter uses durable, heat-resistant, non-stick acrylic rubber gaskets. Non-genuine filter gaskets without these features can be prone to rapid deterioration and damaging leaks.
Valves
A Toyota Genuine Oil Filter features two valves - a Bypass Valve which allows vital oil to still flow in the event of a filter becoming clogged, and an anti drain-back valve which prevents oil draining out of the engine and into the oil pan. This valve helps protect your engine from increased wear during cold starts.

Diesel Engine Oil Filter
The Toyota Genuine Diesel Oil Filter is designed to filter carbon as well as other contaminants. Non-genuine oil filters may fail to filter carbon, causing dirty oil, black smoke emissions, increased fuel consumption and engine wear. That's why you must always insist on Toyota Genuine.

Engine and Drive Train

The engine and drive train is the powerhouse of your Toyota. These parts generate power and deliver it to you on the road. There are numerous parts that make up the drivetrain of your car including the battery, the clutch, the drive belt, the muffler and spark plug.
 

Toyota Genuine Battery
Your car's battery is what supplies energy to the starter motor, ignition system and lights. The spark plug ignites the fuel and air mixture, which propels the engine's cylinders to drive the car. The engine stays turning with the assistance of a drive belt that carries all the other parts that are auxiliary to your engine's functioning. The role of the clutch is to effortlessly transfer the power from the engine to propel the vehicle. Finally the muffler is the component in your exhaust system that is responsible for correctly 'breathing out' emissions, so that your engine delivers maximum performance and efficiency.

Batteries

Your car's battery is what supplies energy to the starter motor, electrical & ignition system. For hybrid/electric vehicles, the battery also supplies traction. Car batteries require regular inspection and maintenance, which involves checking the fluid level; checking that terminal clamps are attached properly; and checking that the battery clamps are holding the battery securely.
Toyota Genuine Car Batteries
 

Toyota Genuine Battery
Toyota Genuine batteries new flat-top design includes an innovative flat-top lid. The lid provides a contemporary appearance, as well as having indicators for the state of charge and fluid level indicators for easy diagnosis. Toyota Genuine batteries are specifically suited to Toyota vehicles and Australian driving conditions. They are designed to:

Fight Corrosion
Toyota Genuine Batteries have a thick-cast positive grid, stronger alloy components and involve double dip production.

Combat Fluid Loss
Fluid loss due to the electrolysis that occurs during charging means that the battery may require fluid top ups. Toyota Genuine Batteries combat water loss with special alloy components and hybrid design plates. They also feature an inbuilt start of charge and fluid indicator.

Combat Vibration
Toyota Genuine batteries are built with stronger components and internal welds as well as a mud rack design that reduces plate movement.

Enable Superior Cycling
For optimal performance, batteries include a heavy duty component with increased paste coating and are designed to handle accessory loads when idling.
Toyota batteries are approved and recommended by Toyota engineers.

Clutches

The clutch is the vital link delivering engine power to the transmission. The role of the clutch is to effortlessly transfer the power from the engine to propel the vehicle. It really is the vital link between the power source (engine) and the power distribution (transmission, differential, axles and wheels). The functions of the clutch include:
The ability to cut engine power quickly for safe driving
Smooth, quiet transfer of engine power to transmission

Quick radiation of frictional heating
Maintaining inertia after disengagement
Making full use of the engine's power

In manual transmissions, the clutch engages and disengages the engine from the transmission as you change up and down gears or into reverse. This constant use when driving means clutches are prone to wear, and eventually need replacement.

Signs you might have a worn clutch are:

Poor acceleration
Increase in fuel consumption
Speed doesn't pick up quickly compared to amount of acceleration
Poor power when climbing hills
Toyota Genuine Clutches
 

Toyota Genuine Technology for Superior Performance
Toyota Genuine Clutches feature torsion rubber springs rather than traditional coil springs. These superior springs provide precisely balanced and quiet rotation at high speeds - thus reducing vibration significantly.

Superior Shock Absorption
The Toyota Genuine Clutch Disc also provides easy half-clutch gear engagement because of its superior shock absorption characteristics. High slipping and high temperature resistance is achieved by using the finest quality materials on the disc facing. This ability to withstand temperature change also reduces wear-out.

An Exact Fit
Because Toyota Genuine Clutch Kits are engineered to original manufacturing standards, they fit perfectly - first time, every time. This can save substantial costs simply by reducing the 'finicky' nature of some after-market clutch fitting.
Toyota Genuine has a comprehensive range of clutch kits for just about every Toyota model in existence. These are complete kits that include everything to rebuild a clutch - saving the repairer time and effort of sourcing individual components.

Drive Belts

In order to operate, your Toyota's engine relies on many other 'helping hands' around it. These include the cooling fan, water pump, power steering pump, alternator, and air conditioning compressor. All must work in perfect harmony to provide electrical charge, cooling, and other energies for safe, comfortable driving. All of these components rely on one piece of equipment, the drive belt, to perform their many mechanical tasks. Drive belts quite literally keep the many wheels of the engine turning.

Drive Belts will last 60,000 to 100,000km with normal use, but this can vary greatly due to harsh operating conditions. Signs and effects of a worn out drive belt:

A worn out belt may slip and become noisy
Reduced cooling efficiency
Improper battery charging
Problems with the power steering or air conditioning
Any visible damage to the belt
 

Toyota Genuine Drive Belts
The role of a drive belt is to keep the many auxiliary components attached to your engine, turning. There are two major differences between Toyota Genuine Drive Belts and non-genuine belts.

Individual Models
Toyota Genuine Drive Belts are specifically designed for each individual Toyota model for perfect fit and tension between the various components they must drive. Many non-genuine drive belts are 'one size fits all' designs that can either be too loose, or too tight - either way, they can dramatically reduce the performance of relevant equipment.

High Quality Materials
With a rubber coated bottom layer to prevent cracking to heat-resistant tensioning members, Toyota Genuine Drive Belts are multi-layered for maximum longevity and performance.

Drive Belt Types
There are several different types of drive belts available - each performs an individual role according to the equipment it drives and engine type. These variations are:

Raw Edge Belts
In plain, multi-ply and cogged configurations for passenger cars, trucks and buses including diesels.

V-Ribbed Belts
These are thinner and more efficient in transferring power, and are used in small and high performance engines.
Toyota Genuine Drive Belts are designed for longevity and performance. If you have your Toyota Service Centre service your car, then the drive belts will always be inspected for wear and/or replaced according to the servicing schedule.

Mufflers

The role of the muffler in your car's operation goes way beyond merely suppressing engine noise. In fact, as the final component in your exhaust system, it is responsible for correctly 'breathing out' emissions, so that your engine delivers maximum performance and efficiency.

In most instances, car mufflers will let you know when it's time for a replacement. Loud, abnormal noise indicates a hole in the muffler, although replacement should be carried out whenever there's any sort of damage or serious corrosion. Also, if your muffler becomes clogged, then you'll notice a loss of engine power. Replace your muffler immediately when:

It makes a low booming noise, a rattling noise, or a hissing noise.
The outside of the muffler is covered in soot.
The internal separator rattles when tapped lightly.
The muffler's exhaust noise becomes louder.
 

Toyota Genuine Car Mufflers
Toyota Genuine Mufflers deliver smooth, quiet engine performance. The main differences between them and non-genuine brands are:

Model Specific Design
The most significant difference is that each Toyota Genuine Muffler is designed, engineered and tested precisely for each individual model, engine type and capacity to ensure maximum performance, smoother emission control and the quietest operation.

High Quality Material
When your original muffler is replaced with a Toyota Genuine Muffler, the fit is perfect - ensuring that it will not leak fumes, rattle or have a negative effect on performance. And since Toyota Genuine Mufflers are constructed from the high quality stainless steel, they are corrosion resistant for a longer life and superior value for money.
Ensure you insist on the strong, silent Toyota Genuine Mufflers for optimum performance.

Spark Plugs

The spark plug is one of the smallest and most important components in a petrol engine; it is responsible for actually making the engine operate. Thousands of times every minute, the spark plug ignites the fuel and air mixture, which propels the engine's cylinders to drive the car.

Spark plugs must operate within a precise heat range. If they work outside that range, the plug will not operate at optimum efficiency, which can result in poor starting, reduced performance under load, and increased fuel consumption.
Equally important is the resistor located between the centre electrode and the centre axis, which prevents interference with onboard electronics such as your radio. So, if your radio is full of static, chances are you've got spark plugs that are impairing your engine's performance.
Common signs that your spark plugs need to be replaced include:

Difficult starting
Unstable running
Engine misfires
Increased fuel consumption
 

Toyota Genuine Spark Plugs
At first glance, all spark plugs look pretty much the same. However, there are many distinguishing features between spark plugs that can make enormous differences to the way your engine performs. In fact, non-genuine spark plugs might not only reduce performance, they can also increase the chances of damage to your engine.

A Unique Electrode for Better Spark
Toyota Genuine Spark Plugs feature a unique U-groove ground electrode, which means it creates a bigger and more consistent spark, allowing for:

Better fuel efficiency
Faster response
Lower gas emissions

Optimal Thermal Conduction
The case or housing around the internal spark plug components is vital to the stable performance and long life of the plug. The precise construction and quality materials of a Toyota Genuine Spark Plug housing ensures a high rate of thermal conduction which prevents the plugs from running 'too hot' or 'too cold' and causing engine misfires or pre-ignition (which may also cause engine damage).

Brakes, Suspension and Steering

The performance of your car brakes; suspension; and steering have tremendous effect on how your car handles on the road. Being able to stop and turn with precision are crucial to your safety while driving.

At the centre of a car's stopping power are the actual brake pads, which grip the brake disc rotor to slow down your car. The split boot kit allows you to repair the boots, which are crucial to your car's CV joints on the front axles of your car. Shock absorbers work with the car's suspension to absorb the effects of bumps and holes in the road. Tyres are one of the parts that require the most regular checking. Toyota Service Centres offer all the big brands of tyres you could want.
 

Brake Pads

Perhaps the most important safety feature of any car is the brakes. It is imperative to keep your car's brakes in top condition. At the centre of a car's stopping power are the actual brake pads, which grip the brake disc rotor to slow down your car. These are also the parts of the brake that require regular replacement because every single time you stop - you use them.

Brake section
Needless to say, your car's ability to stop quickly and safely is crucial to accident prevention. Along with quality tyres, braking system and suspension, brake pads play a major role in the active safety features of your car. Brake pads work by pressing in and gripping both sides of the brake disc to slow the wheels. Quite simply, the ability to stop effectively lies principally on the performance ability of the brake pads.

Signs you may need to replace your brake pads:

Squeaking noise when brakes applied
Car judders when brakes applied
 

The Toyota Genuine Brake Pad
Toyota Genuine Brake Pads are designed as a perfect fit for each model Toyota, helping to ensure balanced braking and durability in wide ranging conditions - and that means excellent stopping power when you need it most.There are three main features that determine the quality of Brake Pads.

Brake Pad Lining
Toyota Genuine Brake Pads are specifically designed for Toyotas, ensuring balanced, stable braking in wide-ranging temperatures and driving conditions. They are also super durable, and constructed without the use of asbestos for a safer environment as well as safer driving

Anti-Squeal shim
Toyota Genuine Brake Pads feature a precision anti-squeal shim which prevents the high-frequency vibration which causes brake noise. Non-genuine pads may omit this feature, and the result could be annoyingly squeaky brakes.

Genuine Fit
Strict quality control is employed in every stage of Toyota Genuine Brake Pad manufacture. They are meticulously checked for accuracy of clearance between brake pad and caliper for smooth, safe, stopping.

Replacing your brake pads with Toyota
While dependent on your driving style, Toyota Genuine Brake Pads are generally designed to perform efficiently for the total time between recommended services. If you have your Toyota Service Centre service your car, then the brakes pads will always be inspected according to the servicing schedule.
 

Split Boot Kits

Your car's front axles have four "constant velocity" or CV joints: two inboard and two outboard joints. The CV joints are encased by the boot, which is usually made of rubber or hard plastic. The boot maintains the CV joints' supply of grease on the inside and repels dirt and water from the outside. After a number of years and a certain amount of mileage, the boot may develop cracks or splits, which can eventually lead to damage to the CV joint.
 

Split Boot Kit diagram
If you notice a greasy or oily substance on your driveway, around the front or rear wheels of your car or any abnormal clicking noises while driving, your boots may need replacing. Normally, the driveshaft and the CV joint have to be removed to replace a boot. The Toyota split boot kit allows for easier replacement of the boot through its innovative design.
 

Toyota Genuine Split Boot Kits#
You may have found in the past that the maintenance and replacement of worn boots has been costly and time consuming. This is usually because the entire driveshaft had to be removed in order for a new boot to be fitted.

Toyota has developed a 'split' boot, which can be fitted quickly without having to remove the driveshaft. That way, you can ensure your CV joints, which are far more costly to replace than a rubber boot, are properly maintained without having to have your car off the road for hours at a time.

Toyota Genuine Split Boot Kits# are designed as a quick and easy replacement boot when your original boots are damaged so that your car's CV joints remain protected by keeping foreign matter such as stones or sand out.
 

Shock Absorbers

Shock absorbers, as the name accurately implies, work with the car's suspension to absorb the affects of bumps and holes in the road. The most obvious benefit of shock absorbers is that they provide a smooth, comfortable ride over various surfaces and roads.
 

Toyota Genuine Shock Absorber

Not so obvious is the safety role they play in your car's handling and steering - particularly in maintaining steering and stability. However, for such a vitally important part of your car's safety system, there are big differences in the quality of shock absorbers.

Signs you might need new shock absorbers:
Unresponsive steering
Abnormally bumpy ride

There are two main features that determine the quality of shock absorbers:

Individual Models
Toyota Genuine Shock Absorbers are specifically designed for each individual Toyota model to optimise handling performance and suspension safety. From the piston structure to the connective bushings, every Toyota Genuine Shock Absorber is designed for perfect fit. Many non-genuine shock absorbers are 'one size fits all' designs for a variety of cars regardless of individual requirements.

High Quality Materials
Toyota Genuine Shock Absorbers include Teflon" processed piston bands and piston rods which are specially coated for superior rust resistance. These long-lasting parts work smoothly to reduce noise and bumps to make driving a pleasure. Many non-genuine shock absorbers avoid using Teflon" and other protective measures, reducing longevity and performance substantially.

Toyota Genuine Shock Absorbers are designed for longevity and performance. If you have your Toyota Service Centre service your car, then the shock absorbers will always be inspected according to the servicing schedule.
 

Tyres

About Tyre Care and Safety
The condition of your car's tyres is an important element in the overall safety of you and your passengers. Tyres, although built to last, are subjected to all sorts of road conditions and driving styles, exposing them to extreme wear and tear.

There are some DIY checks that you can do between scheduled services to help ensure your tyres are safe and last as long as they should. In particular, maintaining the correct pressure is the most basic part of tyre care you can do yourself - and it makes a huge contribution to getting the best performance, economy and safety from your tyres.

Additionally, your driving style can affect the life and condition of your tyres. Smooth, attentive driving helps optimise tyre efficiency and lifespan, whereas an aggressive driving style will wear your tyres out much faster, regardless of whether you're driving with correct tyre pressure or wheel alignment.

How to Maintain Your Tyres
Check your tyre pressure regularly
We recommend checking tyre pressure every week, while the tyres are cold - and don't forget the spare.
Incorrect tyre pressure adversely affects grip on the road, ride comfort, fuel consumption and overall tyre performance.
Different driving conditions require different pressures. For example, a higher pressure is usually recommended for high-speed driving or when carrying or towing a heavier than normal load.
Under-inflated tyres, when used on hard roads (as opposed to sand or mud), can be unresponsive when steering and braking and lead to increased and uneven wear.
Details relating to the correct pressure should be available from the tyre information placard on your vehicle.

Check tyre condition
Tyres will wear with use and pre-maturely from poor alignment or erratic driving styles. To ensure safety, tyre tread depth must be at least 1.6mm or more to help ensure the tyre sticks to the road when braking, cornering and will help to avoid aquaplaning in wet conditions. Bald tyres (less than 1.6mm) are unsafe and need to be replaced immediately.
In particular, tyre wear on front-wheel-drive vehicles is a little higher.
Look for cracks and bulges in the side walls, and nails that may have pierced but not punctured the tyres.

Wheel Balance and Alignment
During vehicle servicing, our technicians will check that all your wheels are precisely balanced, to ensure all sections of the tyre rotate evenly on the road, minimising undue wear.
If required, we can check and realign your wheels, which is necessary when your vehicle tends to stray to the left or right when driving, or wanders about on a straight stretch of road.
Correctly balanced and aligned wheels will ensure a Genuinely Better ride without vibrations. It will also aid in responsive steering and help you gain maximum mileage from your tyres.
Wheel alignments can be necessary between scheduled servicing if you hit a curb or large pothole. Your wheel settings should be checked as soon as possible after such contact. Rough roads or aggressive driving can also be contributing factors.
 

Wheel Replacement and Selection
If you need to replace a wheel due to damage or to enhance the appearance of your vehicle, we'll ensure the new wheels provide the same load capacity, diameter rim width and offset.
It's important to be aware that differences in tyre type can adversely affect vehicle handling, wheel bearing life, brake cooling, headlight aim and the calibration of your speedometer.
Your Toyota Service Centre can show you a comprehensive range of alloy wheels specifically designed for your Toyota.

Alloy Wheels
All Toyotas have their own range of alloy wheels designed to enhance the appearance of each vehicle while maintaining performance and safety.
If you install alloy wheels or have them rotated, we recommend that you recheck the tightness of the wheel nuts after the first week of driving.
To avoid damaging alloy wheels, only ever use the Toyota wheel nuts and wrench designed for your specific wheels.

Rotating Wheels
To even out tyre wear across all tyres and extend tyre life, you should rotate your tyres from 5,000km, depending upon your driving habits and road conditions.

Warranty
Your Toyota Service Centre will be able to advise you on any questions you may have regarding the Tyre Warranty. Tyres are covered by the tyre manufacturer's warranty.#

Windscreen Wipers

About Wipers, Rubbers and Blades
Windscreen wipers are very important for safe driving, especially at night. They are designed to effectively remove moisture and dirt from the front and rear windscreen, providing a clear view for the driver.

However, the soft rubber inserts are vulnerable to wear and tear from the elements and can be literally worn out with use. Contaminants and adverse conditions on the road can accelerate rubber deterioration, often resulting in chattering and streaking across the windscreen. Lack of use, due to storage or driving in dry climates can leave the rubber on the windscreen wipers cracked and brittle. The same applies to headlamp wipers too, and all rubber inserts should be checked regularly and changed when necessary.

Signs you may need to replace your windscreen wipers:

Chattering or streaking across the windscreen
Cracks or brittleness on the wiper
Smearing on the windscreen after use

Toyota Genuine Wipers and Washer
Toyota Genuine Wipers, like all Genuine parts, have been designed especially for your Toyota. When you get your car serviced by Toyota technicians, they will know to check the condition of the wiper blades and its rubber inserts.

To ensure maximum windscreen cleanliness, use the Toyota Genuine Windscreen Washer Additive. Giving the rubber blade a regular wipe with tissue will also help to clean off the build-up of grease and grime. This will help to maintain a clear view through the windscreen and keep your wipers working longer.
