How to Find Coolant Leaks with a Coolant Leak Tester
Hi. Thanks a lot for the information. Mine is a 2019 RX 350, and the problem is that the tailgate opens and close by it self, randomly. Sometimes it opens right after I park the vehicle, and i close it but opens up again by it self. Sometimes, I found the gate open the next morning😂. It's driving me crazy... Any idea?
Thank you for this video Sr. I’m close to replace the same hose in my 08 Sienna.
Also needed a steering puller because splines were cold welded. Only to break free from the couple mm s of bond formed overtime. Then It slid out easy
Nut was 22mm in my case
That's great info
thank you for watching and for commenting
Would At 205 reseal work for short term fix?
No idea.
This is where I draw the line for DIY🤦♂
How do you remove the door pocket to clean it?
You’re a lifesaver, thank you so much!!. My wife was stuck and I found out this was the issue!! Did a temporary fix
Thank you for watching and for commenting.
What size is that hidden bolt 14mm?
Probably. But I don't recall. It might be 12.
Is there a spring in the fuel injector where ypu fasten down the regulator
I don't recall anything like that but it's been a long while so don't take my word for it.
Solid tear down. Video. Question, If I pulled a c60 w/lsd and want the final drive from the toyota matrix, do I just need to remove and replace 6th gear?
To change final drive, you change the differential ring gear and the entire output shaft, with the output shaft pinion matching the ring gear. Final drive has nothing to do with 6th gear.
@Merryfrankster_ ok, so if I want the taller 6th gear out of the matrix for better highway fuel economy, whole output shaft needs to come out?
@@Ma70rk No, if you want to change the final drive, which is what you asked, the output shaft has to come out. If you want to change sixth gear, that's a different question, you can do that just swapping sixth gear from your donor vehicle on both input shaft and output shaft. Words have meaning. Final drive does not mean highest gear.
@Merryfrankster_ thanks for clearing that up! Will definitely consider. Plotting if I want to attempt my own lsd installation, or buy donor c60 and swap 6th gear. Thank you! ✊🏼
What check engine light codes were present?
Been a while, don't remember.
EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED THANKS!
I can’t get the mark on the crack shaft to align with the on with the belt without turning the crank too much. How do I align it better?
Make sure you are orienting the belt the correct way. It should align perfect every time. If it is flipped over, the marks will not align.
Can I get more of an explanation on that part shown at 12:30 ?? Mine is broken and wondering if I urgently need to get it fix
It helps the ECU to filter out noise for the sensor signals. You can get one out of a junkyard, they are the same for nearly every Toyota. Car will run without it, but runs better with it.
I appreciate it and yeah I did end up getting one from the junkyard, just gotta install. Thanks !
One of the best longest lasting engines money can buy!
Thank you very much for your video and listing the parts. I just ordered them for my 2007 Avalon, I am hoping that the power steering pump is not too hard to deal with. I am an avid DYIer but this Avalon looks like everything is going to be a bit of a challenge. I moved up from Buicks so I hope its worth the trouble. Driving the car is so nice. Not sure I could go back. Thanks,
Normally the power steering pump is not too much trouble. Sometimes it is just as easy asa can be. But you might get unlucky. Keep your fingers crossed.
you can also use a heat gun to remove the grommet's
Any help
Change filter, change fluid, cross your fingers.
My trans hardshift
Change filter, change fluid.
Cheers Frankster. Thanks for recommending that I check this video out first. Where do I get the service bolt from? It looks like I could possible use on of the quarter panel bolts.
You can use any M8x1.25 bolt from anywhere.
You make a big mistake you should have done the sump bolts first before fighting up the cover
That was not a mistake. There was a reason for it. The change had to be done in situ with the engine on the ground, quickly. There was no time to monkey around and there was no "fighting" involved. Sometimes expedience takes precedence.
so the bell housing is just so you can connect the starter motor? I'm just trying to find out if it's okay to crank the motor without the intake manifold..... seems like it is (as long as I pull the fuel fuse and relay out).... Thanks again, Frankster.
Correct, the bell housing is for the starter. Sure you can crank with the intake off. But don't let anything be sucked in to the engine.
@@Merryfrankster_ Thanks again Frankster.... you rule.
I have a 2008 lexus ES 350 that has a 1 second rattle on cold starts only amd not any other time idle or driving. How can I tell if it's the locking pin or the cam gear housing bolts coming loose? Will it sound different for each one of those problems?
The noise you report is not from the cam gear housing falling apart. See my related video on the cam gears of 2gr-fe.
Which video specifically?? Mine sounds just like the death rattle for 1-3 seconds on cold start
@@83adub specifically the video on 2gr-fe cam gears - can I be any more specific than that? ruclips.net/video/WSVRH2bl0qs/видео.html
@@83adub for your noise, change the valve cover o-rings, clean the vvt oil filters, use a little bit heavier oil 10w30 or 10W40, and you should be good to go.
Thank you. So if it was the housing bolts or the collar coming out, would it be a different noise than just cold start rattle?
found a aluminum one off massive speed system for about 40$ before shipping seems like a good permanent fix
Interesting, i never knew there was one available. Link?
This was helpful!
Thank you for watching and for commenting. I forgot I had even made this video.
If I want to work with you, how can I contact you?
Tell me a little bit more here and we can see where it goes. What do you mean by "work with you?" Do you want me to do repair work on your car? Do you want to come and work in my shop? Do you want to hire me to work in your shop? "Work with you" can mean a lot of different things.
Hi Frank, i want your opinion. My 2zz sound like this is normal? If is vvt gear can be broken and damaged my engine? ruclips.net/video/26j0XQ2lBDw/видео.htmlsi=SiL-Auco2_IMtlom
Great video. I have this exact car and this exact issue. Do you think this is possible to do on my own or should I trust a shop more? The shop I wanted to go to wants me to pay over $1000 for this fix which is just too much for me
For far less than $1,000 you can buy all the equipment you need - vacuum pump, gauge manifold, recovery pump - to do your own ac work, and never have to pay an ac shop again. Look on amazon.com for an ac repair kit.
Hey fam, I got a 1mz non vvt-i, I have excess oil coming out the Pcv I collect in a catch can, can this rear swap stop oil from coming out the pcv also?
Vvt does not fit non vvt but maybe a newer cleaner valve cover would help or maybe you can remove the baffle for the air oil separator and clean underneath where the oil pools up and the rivet it back or screw it back together.
Oh because this video is on a 1mz vvti and 3mz vvti? Oh I was hoping I could swap a 1mz "non" vvti with a 3mz "non" vvti
Yea I want a vavle cover with better baffles for my 1mz "non" vvti, so t tired of this excess oil 😔 Such a great engine, but that rear valve cover such a flaw. Thank you also
@@veindawgz998 I don't think you can swap those.
tbh I have not even seen a non-vvt 1mz in a very long while.
Joker fucking get on with it dam

Good job, man.....I love it ❤
Thank you for watching and for commenting.
I have the same problem on same year rav 4. The code i show is Cat code
if you have a P0420 you can resolve that usually with an O2 sensor spacer.
We have change the Ignition Coil 3 times, the 3rd time we used motor craft brand, we have changed this Fuel Pressure senor for the 3rd time and again used Motor craft brand the 3rd time and we are still getting code P0193. We have put a new fuel pump on it. changed the Standard Ignition 2 Terminal Electrical Connector & Terminal Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor...we dont know what else to check
Check the wiring between the sensor and the ECM, if that checks ok, replace the ECM.
thanks for the video
Thank you for watching and for commenting.
My VVT filter had Metal shavings and I believe it came from a replacement camshaft.
The oil comes up from the oil pump under pressure before it goes to the filter then camshaft. If there is metal shavings in the filter this means there is metal shavings in your oil pump and everywhere else. Take out the engine oil filter and check the situation.
I bought a used 2008 Toyota Sienna and the overflow reservoir has a big crack on the top. What part did you use to make your overflow?
What if you just weld the exhaust cam gear collar so it doesnt go out
no bigger cams? no bigger heads? no bigger anything ? :(
Thanks so much. This is a design flaw and the metal rod bends instead of pushing up to unlatch.

Better fix it before any real problem happens.
