Parts for your 2013 Toyota Land cruiser-Clutch kit

Is a clutch kit used on a 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser?

Short answer: no. According to Toyota’s own technical literature — including the Land Cruiser 200 Series New Car Features (NCF), the 2013 Owner’s Manual, and the Toyota Electronic Parts Catalogue (EPC) — the 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser (J200) for Australia and New Zealand was delivered with a full-time 4WD, six-speed automatic transmission (Aisin AB60F family) behind the V8 engines. There’s no factory manual option listed for this model year in these markets.

Because it’s an auto, the driveline uses a torque converter and flexplate in place of a conventional manual clutch disc, pressure plate and release bearing. That’s why a traditional clutch kit isn’t relevant or required on this vehicle. The EPC doesn’t show a flywheel, clutch cover or driven plate for the 2013 J200, which is the parts-catalog way of saying there’s nothing to service or replace in that department.

If a “clutch kit” pops up in a search for a 2013 Land Cruiser, it’s usually one of three things: a part intended for the Land Cruiser 70 Series (VDJ76/78/79) or Prado 150 with manual gearboxes, a generic catalogue cross-link error, or a specialised kit for a custom manual conversion. For a stock 200 Series, those kits won’t fit.

Wondering what to look after instead? Focus on the automatic. Toyota specifies WS automatic transmission fluid
