Lots of great material on here... I'll let the search you find fill in the blanks but to answer Type IV only Toyota can be used. Toyota OEM or there are compatible oils that others make like Valvoline

T-IV can not go wrong. Just did my 6th drain and fill a few weeks ago. The color is getting better and better.
