      Hey Eddie, how did it go? I just left my car at the parking lot of the Sushi place my wife and I ate, food was great, not starting car sucked... pretty sure it's the starter. I have no experience on fixing stuff but I would like to try. What do you think, doable or not?

    One of your easier jobs, those are nice to have sometimes. Looks like the same basic procedure for most 3.0 V6 , maybe the 3.3L as well? on many Toyota/Lexus transverse, front wheel drive engines. Great video for the DIYer. Thank you.

      Yes it's a easy job but should encourage those who got a $500 + repair estimate to repair it themself.

    How do you diagnose a bad starter again ?

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  3 года назад

      Obvious way is a fully charged battery won't get the starter motor to turnover. You'll also hear clicking noises. Keep cycling the ignition multiple times and maybe the car will start. Starter turns over too slowly.

    would you say the 1mz is your favorite motor to work on

    • @dsimp765
      @dsimp765 3 года назад

      Its probably the 3MZ motor? They are very similar motors. The 1MZ was more common in the Toyota's, Camry, Avalon, Solara. That would be great video idea 💡

    Sir what is the brand name of new starter ?

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  2 года назад +1

      For parts like starters and alternators, I prefer to buy store brands with lifetime warranties. If the part goes bad, I can get a replacement quickly anywhere in the country (I.e. advance auto, oreilleys, autozone). The OEM brand for Toyota is Denso or Aisin.
