I rang up OilChangers today about getting a flush done, and they said that they couldn't use Toyota Type IV fluid, just their Caltex 'Delo' or something. The guy said it would be fine as they put in 'additives' when its a sportier car.

Not sure if I believe him. Should I definitely be putting in Type IV?

Yep, Type 4 all the way unless its shift kitted then you can run Dex 3 without issues.

Yes, it's Type IV.

Don't use additives, it's all rubbish most of the time just to win over dummies.
