Hi guys, sorry if this is posted somewhere, I did try searching but I was only able to find answers for the V6 version. I am wondering how much coolant I need to do a full flush. I am going to have my local independent do it but I want to purchase the fluid before hand. I already have 2 gallons of the toyota coolant do I need to purchase them more?

You should be fine with two gallons of pre-mixed. I used only about 1.5Gal. of the Toyota-branded fluid (expensive, but worth it). I did the complete flush as well, due to my water pump was going out. This was a complete project due to the amount of miles I have on my 2010 Rav4.



Water Pump
Belt Tensioner
Belt
Thermostat w/gasket


I have 186k miles so far and no leaks.
