Because Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) vehicles differ slightly from North American (USDM) models, a few components should be transferred from your original transmission to ensure proper fitment and reliable operation.
- Speed Sensors: Many JDM transmissions do not use the same speed sensor configuration as USDM models. In most cases, you will need to transfer the input and output speed sensors, along with the differential assembly, from your original transmission.
- Wiring & Electrical Components: Connector styles and pin configurations may vary between JDM and USDM transmissions. For proper communication with your vehicle’s ECU, transfer your original wiring harness, shift solenoids, and neutral safety switch to the JDM transmission.
- Mounting Brackets: Depending on the vehicle application (for example, installing a Camry transmission into a RAV4), you may need to reuse the mounting brackets from your original transmission to ensure correct fitment.
- Transmission Fluid: The Toyota U241E transmission is designed to use Toyota ATF Type T-IV fluid. For best performance and transmission longevity, use only the recommended T-IV fluid. Do not substitute with Toyota WS or universal automatic transmission fluids, as they do not provide the same friction characteristics required by this transmission.
JDM Toyota U241E 4-Speed Automatic Transmission – 2.4L 2AZ-FE FWD
In short: This is a used, low-mileage JDM Toyota U241E 4-speed automatic transmission for the 2.4L 2AZ-FE front-wheel-drive Toyota RAV4, Camry, Scion tC and Highlander. It’s $895 at J-Spec Auto Sports in Henrico, Virginia, with a 90-day warranty, nationwide freight shipping and optional installation.
If your RAV4 or Camry is slipping, flaring between gears, engaging late into Drive or Reverse, or showing a transmission warning light, a low-mileage JDM U241E is one of the most affordable ways to get it back on the road. It’s a genuine Toyota OEM unit imported from Japan, and every photo on this page shows the exact transmission you’ll receive.

JDM to US Installation Notes
Japanese-market and US-market U241E transmissions share the same core, but some external parts can differ. Plan to transfer these from your original transmission:
- Speed sensors: input and output sensors, and in some cases the differential assembly
- Wiring and electrical parts: harness, shift solenoids and neutral safety switch, so the transmission talks to your car’s computer correctly
- Mounting brackets: especially when the donor and your car are different models (for example, Camry to RAV4)
Any experienced transmission shop handles this routinely. Our own installers in Henrico, VA do it every week.

Installation Tips
- Flush or replace the transmission cooler and lines. Debris from the failed unit can damage the replacement.
- Use Toyota ATF Type T-IV only. Don’t use Toyota WS or universal fluids, because the U241E needs T-IV’s friction properties.
- Fully seat the torque converter before bolting the transmission to the engine.
- Inspect the engine and transmission mounts while you have access.
- Clear codes and road test gently, then recheck the fluid level.
