What Toyota specifies
Toyota publishes a part number rather than a spec code, so the cleanest buy is the genuine bottle. Toyota's parts site lists Toyota Super Long Life Coolant, part 00272-SLLC2, which replaced 00272-SLLAC [1]. An aftermarket bottle that suits Toyota will say so by naming Toyota or Lexus on its label. That is the coolant maker's own claim, not a Toyota approval.

Frequently asked questions
Does Toyota publish a coolant spec code?
Not on the parts page we cite. It lists the genuine coolant by part number (00272-SLLC2) without a chemistry or spec code, so aftermarket makers name Toyota instead.
Is pink Toyota coolant premixed?
Check the bottle and your manual. The Toyota parts page we cite does not state the premix ratio, so we do not repeat one.
