Parts separately cost close to $150. And estimated 5-6 hours manual work with proper tools. I bought a brand new one with 2 years warranty from ebay for $350, and had it installed to a decent mechanic for $100. Literally 1 hour job including take out, put new one in, and put oil.

True to that! SIR! The dealerships they don't sell the parts as a kit. They only sell the whole differential which at that time quoted us about 1500 Dollars. Too crazy!
I can confirm the 95DSF01 bearing for my Canadian 2012 RAV4. I ordered a kit on eBay labelled “bearing and seal and deflector (for rav4 10-12 coupling) 4130342022 4130342023” for 210$. My mechanic charged about 300 for the labour getting to 500. Way cheaper than the 2300 for the new unit installed or even 1700 for a used unit installed.
I'm glad you were able to fix your differential! It's ridiculous how Toyota dealership won't sell the kit. And trying to sell the whole unit for so much money.
The Bearing shown here is NSK 95DSF01, size 120*95*17 mm. I do not believe this coupling is the original one for 2011. This bearing was used on models built in Canada until July 2009. For models from August 2009 the bearing is a narrower bearing - 120*95*13 mm. NSK 6819-2RS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The above observation was wrong. The 2011 model did use the NSK 95DSF01, size 120*95*17 mm
Just an FYI on the bearing..95DSF01(90663-95007 dealer # I purchased) bearing number is the same for one with a O- ring and one "WITHOUT" an O-ring.I ordered that number from dealer and got one "WITH OUT" O-ring and when I took my 2008 Rav4 limited apart the original had an O-ring.Maybe there is a different dealer # for 0- ring bearing?See now different Ebay sellers/dealers have both listed under same number for 06' to 09' Best to take it apart first I guess if you can.I put mine together with bearing I purchased with out O-ring.No time to wait and get another one.Should last a long time anyway.Fixed problem regardless.
Newer model in this same series changed to a narrower bearing to compensate for the newer added seal installed under the dust deflector Earlier models only had the wider bearing and deflector. Front housing now has a deeper flange to accept the newer seal. Newer is a better design.
Toyota still doesn't sell the internal parts for the differential which doesn't make sense . I feel sorry for all those people who have to deal with this issue.
I have the same car Rav4 2011 with the same differential, and I have some questions. I noticed that in the video the original oil seal (color black) is slightly different that the replacement, and I also noticed that you did not replace the dust deflector. Do you agree that the replacement oil seal will fit exactly as the original?, and What was the problem with the new replacement dust deflector, because in the video they look the same shape and at the end you reused the old one? I am asking this questions because I found the same kit on Ebay and I would like to know if make sense to get the same kit, or just the bearing and try to find the original black seal, and reuse the dust deflector. Good job by the way!
The guy that bought the parts, I think he bought them on ebay & yes seal was slightly different but it fit in & yes I had to use the old deflector which nothing wrong reusing in this case since it is only to prevent dust, dirt , moist etc getting into the coupler ! It would be nice if Toyota would sell the kit but sadly they do not! BTW it's been about a year or so & the noise never came back & the leaking issue got fixed! Hopefully yours gets fixed as well! 🤞
Nope! Only remove the 4 nuts holding the shaft then push it on the side then remove one of the two brackets holding the coupler transfer case then you should be able to take it down! 😉
An aftermarket differential coupling for the Rav4 is sold now , these include the bearings and replace the oem couplings. Do you think this would reduce the labor cost as opposed to opening the coupling ?
@@johnh7058 labor would be much easier if you can find aftermarket assembly now if you do just don't throw away your old one just in case the aftermarket fails & less time if you don't have to replace the bearing, coupler and gasket etc etc.
It was a kind of interesting video, but if it takes that long to explain how to deal with a seal and bearing, I hate to think how many days it would need for an engine rebuild. Way too many repeats of the same info. I know we are not all video experts, but man that was slow.
Can you put the link for these part in tmyour transcript please? Im looking at doing this for my 2008 toyota rav 4 limited 4x4. 😢shes cant move right now and its just killing me. Everytbing i find looks nothing like these swals but are labled and say they fit my vehicle 😒
@lunasautogarage9643 exactly these parts and the seals for each side of the cv axel. So far I've only found that new cv axels are my only choice to get those seals and for the 2008 there is no seal on the front of the differential. Just press that sylinder down and put the dust deflector on. So far and I've done so much reasearch, talked to So many sellers and even called Toyota to figure it out and thsts what I got from all of it. I really appreciate you replying tho.. most people never reply so I really do appreciate your time.
@lunasautogarage9643 yeah I did see this I think this might be where I have to go to but it seems ok for now. I'm more concerned about this damn hub I can NOT GET OFF. I mean I seriously heated this thing up for 10 minutes with a torch and took a candle and let the wax seep in the threads then took a breaker bar with a 4ft extension which wqs about 5 ft if not more to get off just the 12 point 30 mm nut off the front of the hub. Finally I got thet off and now the back 4 won't budge either. This thing just failed one day and seeing the differential fluid around the differential I thought it was that but upon further inspection and not being able to move thet tire it's definitely the hub I csnt see or tell if anything else is wrong. So far just that. The 4 bolts onbthe back of the hub are SO CLOSE to the cv axel boot I can barly get any tool on those bolts let alone get enough torque to remove them. It's absolutely CRAZY. Even more do since i laid someone over $400 to replace both front hubs and now I see they were never even touched 😔 time was not a friend of mine and I had no choice but to let someone else work on it. Lesson learned ill never let anyone else touch my vehicles. It's a shame the mechanics here in jersey are so dishonest. I wish so bad thet I could open my own shop. Good hard working people can come to and KNOW there getting the most honest service and best parts at reasonable prices. Plus i get to extra knowledge doing said job's. The price for a break job around here is judt under $400 and that's with my own parts it's absolutely unacceptable. Crazy prices here for anything to get done on your vehicle. Judt a basic synthetic oil change at our Walmart is over $90. I understand they have to dispose of the old oil but damn. Smh. Thanks again sorry I got off track a little there. But yeah I think the whole coupler is probably the best way to go at this point. After I get this got damned hub off.
Unfortunately if you wanna replace them you will need to take the assembly apart! But what I've noticed is that the studs are attached onto the assembly! Your best shot would be to remove the broken stud with a drill bit then make a whole & make some thread & attached a new stud of the same size ! That would be my first route! Second route would be a junk yard & buy the assembly & swap just the part that's broken! Sounds tedious but it's doable! Hope it helps! 🙏
Yes! Very little info on those bearings! Toyota only sells the whole assembly which i don't understand why they wouldn't sell parts to repair its components!
@Luna’s AutoGarage When I'm finish with the repairs. I'll post back here. I've noticed some had difficulty finding the correct bearing size for the 2009 (August) Canadian model.
It was making some noise & leaking fluid on the back of the deflector which as you can see on the video there's a seal there which it was failing! Ever since I replaced the kit I show on my video, all the issues went away! 👍
Excuse me how can I find this coupler bearing it’s cause I called Toyota and they are telling me I need to buy the housing and it’s to expensive and I am only wanting that bearing??????
You can buy it on eBay 😉 & I do believe eventhough your car is a Toyota , Chevrolet dealer sell this bearing. I do wanna believe your rav4 is 2009 2010 & 2011 used the same bearing!
It’s a 2008 still the same bearing and I asked the Toyota dealer but they sell the whole thing they don’t sell it by separate but I’m more likely wanting to know what the specific name and it’s location so I can search it up or if I can contact some other company or type that can hand me this bearing that way I’m willimg to explain?? Or how much is the price??? Or am I willing to buy it maybe o Reilly o autozone ??
