That industry needs more techs like yourself, that takes care when working on a customer’s vehicle.
First car I bought the service tech stripped my oil drain pan plug. Ever since I've never had someone other than myself work on my vehicle. I would probably let this guy work on my truck.
it's extremely rare to find a mechanic like this person. I've learned to do ALL maintenance myself.
Techs don’t get paid enough
The “we’re gunna take care of you today” just goes to show how far being kind and curious to others can take you
As an owner of a 2nd gen, it baffles me why they redesigned the oil filter to be such a pain in the ass to change
It was so refreshing for the first half of the video to be an empty shop with ZERO noise. Shops are naturally loud and this one is no different but it must have been lunch break at the start. Great job
Thats what a professional mechanic who work by honor looks like . Always does his best to send u on your way ready fir race day . Love the brake clean around oil filter
A total pleasure to see this service, ty for the sneak peek a while ago on this beloved and well maintained car and now the longer 60,000 mile service. I bet it is always a delight for you to service something that shows the owners love and attention and most of all decent human forethought to make it clean for you to work on. TY mate loved it as I also love and care for my investment and in return it cares for me by being a joy to sit behind the wheel.

Nice job! I like the way you take such great care of your customers Tacoma.
This must be the "Director's Cut" extended version of the last two vids on this Tacoma. I remember that USMC medallion on the center console. This vid didn't have a counter for the number of "Very Good". 😊
You have observational skills. Very good. (1)
It's such a good thing you are doing- documenting your slow descent into madness on RUclips, for future technicians that may choose this career path to know what lies ahead for them
Love that torque wrench with the cool lights and beep sounds. I'm still using my old 70's Snap-on QJR3200 "clicker".
I have a 2020 Camry with a transverse mounted V6. Changing the rear plugs on that engine makes this look easy by comparison. There are times I miss my 1973 Chevrolet pickup with a straight six and three on the tree.
Thanks for posting !
Definitely like the long videos. Keep them comin! Giggity.
Hello young man
I noticed your special tool, the hose.
Liked it so that you don't accidentally drop the plug in the hole. I used my own special tool, a stripes bass rubber hose.
I enjoyed watching your careful work on the well kept Tacoma.
Thanks for sharing.
Where I work (which is not a dealership, BTW), we don't bother with draining the oil filter housing as you demonstrated; we just treat it as a standard filter and pull the whole thing off.
Your self restraint amazes me. I'd have been swearing fluently in English, French an German upon seeing such inaccessible plugs!
I always install the bottom drain cover on the oil filter housing on the bench. This way I’m not fighting gravity with the o ring, I do a final tighten after the housing is reinstalled following filter and o ring change.
CSW that's one sweet ride, I use to put the wheel lock and a box of Dunken Doughnuts in the passenger seat with a thank you note to my mechanic, that dude loved me. lol :)
Great video! I am surprised the serpentine belt wasn't a part of this service. Please make a video showing how you replace the serpentine belt on this vehicle. Much appreciate it! Great channel, I've subscribed for more!
Great work ethic and video!
Finally, we get the encore for the extended version of the few and far between times a customer is a good boi
love watching you vids. I would be a tool pusher or gopher just to watch gear heads at work.
Great vid 👍🏼
Wayne Newton Meters...my new favorite.
They should make an oil socket that has a bleed valve on it to control the dump.
3:37 And the Hardware holding the Spare up still Identifies as Hardware...
BONUS!!!
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Thanks for the thorough walk-thru! I enjoyed your tips especially about replacing the spark-plugs with a hose! You did go pretty quick about the "diaelectric" grease (not sure how much you need or which surfaces needed it). And I'm curious about gapping the plugs. On other vehicles, I had to set the gap on the plugs before installing them. Is that no longer "a thing".
All plugs come pre gapped. I will only check gap if I suspect an issue.
Why are we changing spark plugs at 60k for?!
Thx, I need to change the spark plugs on my 2016 tacoma, seen other videos, your the easiest one without taken to many parts off especially the driver side....thx again...👍
Glad it helped
What type of lubricant are you using on the latches?
Feels like ASMR. Very good.
It's funny that this is called a MAJOR service when it's basic 🤣
Enjoyed 👍👍
Good mechanic, I'd trust him with my truck.
Thanks 👍
Brother, I would let you work on my truck anytime. You are meticulous and do a great job.
Excellent job sir!! Even hittin the door mechanisms with some lithium grease. Above and beyond. If you were in southeast VA you’d be my Yota tech good sir!! Phenomenal job mechanican!
God bless~
Is there a specific lithium grease for door hinges ? Can you recommend one that I can use on my truck? Thanks in advance.
@@kampaiii I use WD40 Specialist White Lithium Grease on my door hinges on my 21 4Runner. Pretty much any white lithium grease will work honestly, but I prefer the spray and the WD40 has an angled straw or the spray if you fold the straw all the way down for larger areas.
@@KendrasEdge757 thank you so much for the reply I appreciate it
@@kampaiii no worries, works great. Also works on the door lock actuators if you’ve got an older vehicle open the doors and spray all around and inside the actuators and move them with a screwdriver and open them back with the door handle. That’s the part of the door that locks onto the piece of steel on the door pillar of the car.
Bro ur the first I have seen that didn’t have to remove all those hoses and brackets when doing the spark plugs on the left side 😂👍 by the way what tool was that you use look like a water hose installing the new plugs? Thanks man for sharing 😅
The wax oil treatment, is that something your dealership does or will any Toyota dealer would do?
First time ever I see the oil filter drain not stuck solid 😂. Mine never comes off in 12 years, it's like welded on, the canister is metal not plastic and I tried everything short of cutting it off 😂. Very good.
Yup, here is what you do, righted the little oiled filter drain bolt and you’ll get a small movement tk tighten it more, then back it out and it’ll come right off. Have had this issue on May Toyotas. Works every time.
@09:11 I notice you put the new cabin air filter in turned 90° from the direction of the old one. Why did you do that? (The old one had the stiff ridges on the sides; the new one you put with the stiff ridges on the front and back). Does it make no difference?
I prefer the 4.0 V6 on my 2015 tacoma. Easier oil filter. Mine has 116k and is cleaner than that 2016. Do all maintenance my self. Also went to catholic school with nuns. Very good
@11:55 I totally get your "Don't drop it, don't drop it, don't drop it". You drop that bolt there, it may be awhile until you find it.
So what was done? Oil change, filter and spark plugs ?
New yorkers have mag lights, texans have handguns
Texans have no rust too
@@albo5106 can confirm
I live in SE texas , we have all the rust
Great video 👍👍👍
What is the current cost for a 60k maintenance on that?
would it be better if toyota used a normal whole filter that doesnt come apart in a bunch of pieces like most other car brands?
First time I saw someone remove without disconnecting those lines
Very good!
I pull the 10 amp efi fuse in the fuse block in the engine bay and run it dry after a few cranks… then oil change…. Then crank, pump up oil pressure, put the fuse back in… then fire. It’s not absolutely necessary but I’ve had to fight chain slap in 150k plus vehicles on cold starts it then goes away. A small not widely known step.
Would this be similar to a 150k mile service? I have a 2014 lexus is250 rwd and i know 150k is an important one, but I'm not sure what exactly needs to be done. I've heard mixed things about transmission fluid and coolants needing or not needing to be changed, but i don't want to pay for it if it's not needed.
After cracking plugs loose always blow compressed air in to remove anything that may be down there in hole , most times there is corrosion on plug washer so when ya break it loose flakes sit down there and guess where it goes when ya remove plug if ya don't blow it out .
This is why I like modern 4 cyl engines, all of the plugs and coils are right on top of the engine. FWD V6's are easily the worst, you either have to rotate the engine forward (older GM) or remove the intake manifold (GM High Feature V6).
Especially turbo 4s, built to crap out right after the warranty expires
for a 2016, that has quite a bit of rust, but it may be surface rust. Is this a midwest car?
I put my wheel lock in the cup holder for a tire store, then they lost it after mounting the wheels back on. They said they would replace the wheel locks. That was several years ago. I'm glad I didn't hold my breath.
I spray the steering u-joint on the shaft going to rack and pinion, It get rusty and steering wheel get sluggish and sometimes doesn't want to go back after turning, so spray that shaft.
You didn't do the Trans fluid change, coolant dump and fill and the diff fluids tho?
I think any customer who complains about how long it takes (or how much labor is charged) for servicing their vehicle should be shown a video like this. Obviously, some vehicles are easier to service than others, but no modern vehicle is as truly simple as the '77 Dodge Monaco I had in college.
Veery Good!
What did you use to lube the hinges at the end? Thanks
When you started the engine for the first time there is some spark action going on by the connector on the driver side.
I really am thinking of a life/trade change and learning how to become an automotive technician; is college really worth it anymore or should I work as an apprentice at my local Toyota and work my way up through a company?
what kind of activity on the cab air filter did you say?
I did spark plugs on a IS350 (2grfse) without removing the intake you need a very offset box wrench or very short 10 mm wobbly socket
Did you see the open spark on the end of the video on startup
Very good.
Truck is in BEAUFIUL condition.... with tons of rust.
what state are you in. My Tacoma is a 2011 and I dont have nearly any rust on it.
I have a question 🙋🏼♂️? So if that was a 60 thou k! When do you change all the other fluids? Trans, transfer case , dif .radiator fluid . Dam now I have to read the manual . Thanks
I have a new 2022 off road . I am a high mileage driver and I'm at 30k now at 1 year old. I'm puzzled why plugs at 60K? Not being critical just curious. Are you specifically a Toyota tech? Meaning do you see alot of these trucks? Even the dealer is not changing plugs at 60k. I had 3 other Tacomas that ran very well with original plugs well over 100k. Those were 2.7's though. I watch all these vids online and I am completely confused about the service of these trucks. I do my own oil, engine and cab filters along with tire rotations. Always have. I just can't seem to get a straight answer on the fluids. Front Transfer case, rear diff, auto trans, coolant, power steering fluid and brake fluid. I plan on taking this truck deeper than I have in the past with regard to mileage. Can you share your thoughts on the fluid intervals I mentioned? I would appreciate your take on it.
I dont even remove the silver plug on the oil filter housing anymore I just remove the housing replace the filter reinstall spray it down and call it a day, then again im on the ground doing this and just dont want an extra step lol
Man you would go crazy if you seen under my 2005 with 180k miles. Even more immaculate than this one.
The platinum service performed by our top tech CSW giggidy…
I lube the oil filter and partly fill it before I install it.
What’s the spray lubricant?
My 2019 Taco is coming up on 60k soon. Was wondering all that it needs for this maintenance but doesnt seem too bad.
Yes and differential service and trans service
Clean truck!! Someone please spray that chassis down with FuidFilm or something
At 20:14 there appears to be electrical arcing just off centre in the area you had worked on on the drivers side. Any thougts on what I am seeing there? Thanks
There is a tag behind the connector attached to the harness. The other one going to the hose, not sure what to say lol. Good eye.
Very good
Mag like light! 👍
check that again i saw some arching in one of the coils
Can you provide to clock counter number?
You sir are CORRECT! I see it at the 20:14 mark
What do you use to lubricant the hinges and latches? Would white lithium grease be ok?
Wd40
No transmission drain and fill?
What is the part number on that Torque Wrench? I might get one of those bad boys.
OK. You got it out but was it still hard?
FYI this motor takes 6.2 quarts not 5.6 quarts as stated in the video.
On where can I get a under coat treatment
I think it's funny how northerners are amazed that there's still paint on the rear diff/axle, and leaf springs, etc.... I would hope so, on a 2016 model! lol. My 2008 Sequoia with 185k miles on it doesn't have a fraction of the rust that this thing has under it. It's nearly spotless.
4:40 "That's firm" - That's what she said! Giggity....
Cant say I've ever bothered with Toyota filter drains. Back it out enough to drain slightly then pull it and tilt down. Done.
Just curious, when is diff fluid change due? Also, is this one 4wd? What are the major differences in the 60k service between 4wd and 2wd?
Every 30K I think.
When I had my 13 Tacoma and was on second spark plug change I had my mechanic nephew swap them for NGK IRIDIUM. The SA at our Toyota dealer told me the 4 litre would not run properly with IRIDIUM plugs...well guess what...it ran perfectly fine and IRIDIUM plugs should last 200 000 kilometres or even more. IRIDIUM may cost a bit more but the extended life is worth it and especially with engines that are hard to get at...like say a Subey Boxer engine for example.
@Mike that happens in fords and gms. Doesn’t really happen in Honda/Toyota at the 90k-100k intervals
good job
so...what about the transmission fluid change? isnt that due at 60k miles too?
Should have been done at 30 or 40k. Multi drain and fill procedure with level check
@@mikeeeeee555For my C-HR the manual wants the fluid changed at 60k miles. I personally would do it every 30k no matter what, so even if it was done on this truck at 30k it should be time to do it again now at 60k or for the first time if it hasnt been done at all.
@@RexenPrime you have a CVT, so it’s a different beast altogether. The maker of the transmission, Aisin, recommends 2year 25k-30k transmission fluid service. Everyone drives differently but I do a drain and refill at regular intervals since it’s easy enough and I expect to keep my 3ed gen taco for many years.
A decent amount of surface rust for 60k miles. Must be in the northeast where salt is used?
I never understood why the arrow points up on vehicles. On every other hvac system I can think of, the arrow points in the direction of airflow
Thanks for the video. Great information. Should the diff oils and the xfer case oils be replaced every 30 kmiles?
Not really, all depends if its under heavy duty, if not look up the interval. If no info is found I would say every 50k
@@customerstateswhat According to the manual that came w/my Tacoma, it is every 30k under normal driving. 15k if towing, heavy loads, etc.
@@jcreeker5581 I would at least inspect at 30k and change if needed.
Pull hard ;! Come easy;!🤣
A bit of flavor
gravy train
Very innovative oil filter pre drain. Never seen that before.
It honestly sucks. Much rather have an old school oil filter.
I never understood either. It’s not a big deal to me but I prefer the old skool spin on filter. They do make retro kits for these Tacomas that will accept a commonly used traditional spin on filter for those that prefer it.
Toyota has had that on the 4.6/5.7 engines since 2007.
Quality old style filters cost more to manufacture, new kind is just paper plastic and O-rings, wish they made a conversion kit, could probably make one if you had the right specs.
Isn’t the torque spec for the plugs 13ft lbs?
