In a 2003 Toyota Tundra, the transmission fluid capacity is 5.5 pints for the R150 (RWD), 4.6 pints for the R150F (4WD), and 2.1 quarts for the initial fill or 13 quarts for a full fill for the 4-speed automatic transmission. The recommended type of fluid is dexron-vi Automatic Transmission Fluid. Transmission fluid acts as both lubrication and a hydraulic fluid, aiding in gear shifts, cooling the transmission, and maintaining the smooth operation of moving parts. It is advised to change the fluid approximately every 90,000 miles. The cost of changing the fluid typically ranges from $100 to $120 for labor, with additional charges for parts if done by a professional. The process of changing the fluid usually takes about 10 to 20 minutes.
