New 2010 Yaris Sedan Owner

[clarenceie]

Hello guys!

First off, what a great forum, lots of DIY and pictures. I definitely found this to be informational and supporting website.

I'm a Honda guy, but I'm definitely excited to work on this simple car.

I will be picking up a used 2010 Yaris Sedan which comes with the Power Package, but no Cruise control.

1) Does the cabin filter come with a frame to house the actual filter or just slide in the filter?

2) I saw the DIY cruise control. For my vehicle, I need the D3 connector, the stalk and 3 wire pigtail correct? Nothing else?

3) Synthetic oil okay? I noticed that Toyota now changed 5W-30 to 5W-20 recently. Yaris part of this change?

4) Is the transmission fluid "lifetime" as suggested by Toyota? I'm planning to change it out anyways with the same fluid; Toyota ATF-WS. Do I need to buy a new filter and gasket? Please give me more personal experience on this.

Thank you! Looking forward to hear back.
