I have used it in a customer's 4 runner and they never came back with any problems, but it was also just a simple drain and refill. And we also used the maxlife simply because a new kid drained the tranny pan instead of the oil pan and the customer couldn't wait for the WS fluid to arrive, so in went the Maxlife. Still the guy has never complained of shifting problems.
Personally I wouldn't do it with my own car just because I've experienced what can happen with fluid that isn't OEM. I put something that was compatible with a honda transmission in one once...I has to drain the whole thing and put the genuine stuff in after the thing shifted funny. Boom, problem was solved.
I've used the WS fluid and it seems like decent stuff...shop around...I've got it for $6-7 bucks a quart.
