Additional Notes

  • The Toyota GR86 (USA / CAN) 2.4 cooling system holds 7.7 liters when paired with an automatic transmission, compared to 7.4 liters with a manual transmission. A 0.3-liter difference between the two configurations reflects the additional coolant volume routed through or around the automatic transmission cooler circuit.
  • The 7.7-liter and 7.4-liter figures represent total cooling system capacity, meaning the full volume required when the system is drained and refilled completely, as opposed to a partial top-up quantity.
  • Under normal use conditions, a coolant check interval of 30,000 miles or 30 months is specified for the 2.4 engine, whichever milestone arrives first.
  • The normal-use coolant change interval is set at 75,000 miles or 72 months. At that mileage, 72 months equals six years, meaning time elapsed can become the determining factor before mileage is reached in lower-usage driving patterns.
  • A separate first-change-only interval of 135,000 miles or 132 months applies to the same 2.4 cooling system. The first-change-only designation means the extended interval governs solely the initial coolant drain and refill, after which the standard 75,000-mile or 72-month cycle takes over for subsequent changes.
  • The 135,000-mile or 132-month first-change interval is 60,000 miles and 60 months longer than the recurring normal-use interval, reflecting the extended service life of the factory-fill coolant formulation relative to subsequent refills.
  • The check interval of 30,000 miles or 30 months remains identical across both the normal and first-change-only rows, indicating that inspection frequency is independent of which change interval cycle is active.
