The difference between a M3 and the lexus IS-F is that in 10 years you can still drive the IS-F down the road.
@CARNAL FLORES my 88 M3 has 300k miles on it and still goes great on original motor.
I realize mine is an anomaly, but my 09 E92 M3 still drives like a dream with 96000 miles, no rod bearing issues or anything outside of regular maintenance!
@CARNAL FLORES agreed!
Well it is a toyota
@CARNAL FLORES Same here. I daily drive an E38 740i and it currently has ~243,000 miles. It’s still on its first motor and the car runs great. New BMWs wouldn’t last over 150,000 miles though
I have no clue how that dog stays so white in the shop environment
Keep her away from Earl Leaker.
I mean the dog doesn’t help Jared with fixing the cars so I thinks that may be a reason.
She bathes with brakecleaner
I'm pretty sure she's been ceramic coated..
@@dgfm3815 😂😂🤣 that's a good one
220000 miles and that engine sounds awesome so smooth
I mind was blown when he started the car. It was soooooo smooth
I love how surprised are americans when car with 220k miles still runs great.
@@Krzysztof_88 cus they buy shit cars like Ford, Dodge and Chrysler
just breaking in!
It's not just a car, it's a TOYOTA!
“go out there and enjoy your car.” Damn straight. The right kind of owner.
I have had my 08 isf for 5+ years now. About 120k on it. I've never had any mechanical issues. Still insanely in love with it! No plans on getting rid of it in the near future.
That’s what I want how you pay ? 25k
@@wootwoot3780 I paid 27k. Had about 70k miles at the time.
Cherish it!
First thing I did after buying my 333k mi ISF was sending an oil sample to be analyzed. It came back with pretty normal readings. Fairly certain my now 355k mi ISF engine won’t look too different! The fuel injected intake sure keeps the top end clean!
You a social media page with your isf?
Hello, do you still have the ISF? Any socials with the car?
Man I have wanted an IS-F since they first came out and seeing this makes me want one even more!
So difficult to find one man:( and the price are going up
I found one with 200.000 KM you guys its worth it? @@anthonyg3016 @tonycrispin
220K Miles and that engine still looks brand new! That's Toyota reliabilty for you! 😎
Says a lot about the owners, good quality oil with proper change intervals. Even the best engines will crap out and fill with sludge if you only charge the oil every 10-15,000 miles
@@aq4316 If you read most owners manuals these days thats about how often you should change them
@@aq4316 I change the oil on all my vehicles every 10k. Mobil 1 or Amsoil. 2005 Tahoe 160k, 2004 Chevy Trailblazer 160k, 2009 Pontiac G8 V6 190k and all run perfectly and burn no oil.
Chevy LS motors are the same if you change the oil.
@@aq4316 no they won’t. When you’re using amsoil and a good filter, you can easily go into the 10-15k miles range.
One of the most reliable V8 ever made and best sounding induction noise
Yeah they are pretty good. Same with the 1ur but valve guides or timing related front stuff will likely need to be done eventually at higher kms.
I think the m156 6.2 v8 might have something to say about that
@@zakhassan that's unfortunately not true for mercedes guys
One of the most reliable No! The MOST reliable v8 EVER!!!
@@danielel-aawar2841 the AMG 5.4 w or w/o the Kompressor is actually reliable compared to the 6.2
Finally somebody that does an actual close to step by step work on an ISF... thank you man one of the most informational IsF videos
I've been looking one myself, they are actually going up in price in my area. Had the original '01 IS300 after college... still love the IS.
I wish we had more Lexus mechanics like Jared. I would definitely take my 2011 ISF to him.
He has a great disposition and working within such tight constraints, he still manages a smile.
I love Jared. He just seems like an overall stand-up human.
Now I see how he gets so much done, there's at least 3 Jareds working at once!
Watching u with your dog while im out on my patio with my 2 dogs... what a way to spend a lazy Monday afternoon..
You & Freddy really seem to have your time-lapse music selection down to a fine art! Love it!!
& the time-lapses too!!!
That beat at 14:55 though... 😎
He has a great producer. He featured on a previous Jhonny Rev Vid. Jared is not the video cutting and mastering guy...
I appreciate the realistic "stuff doesn't always go perfectly" aspect of your video. Sucks you couldn't get it all done right then, but it's real life. Youre very knowledgeable and you explain it in way most people should be able to follow. Great video
Hi Jared nice car and workmanship!!! Love the video 📹!!! Glad the parts came when they did !! Hope to see some upcoming stuff
My Lexus IS350's Engine just went out at 220k Miles, think the Previous Owner didn't take care of it. Had it for a about 7-8 months and always did oil Changes every 3k miles with Castrol GTX High Mileage Oil & Toyota Oil Filter. She just started Knocking, so now I'm saving. The saddest start of a Year for me in my 21 Years of Life 😪
Just bought a 2010 ISF two days ago due to the first video you had with Tavarish. I realized I didn’t need a low mileage ISF, especially since I commute 80 miles a day normally, so that helped. Decided to pick mine up with 198k miles and never been happier! Needs a little love, but all the critical components are sound, very loud and glorious sound. Thanks!!!
Brother- how has your experience been up until now? Looking at one with 144k with a similar commute! 70 miles! What items needed to be addressed or what should I look at?
@@pearldrums92I ended up getting rid of it but the owner that has it lives in Iowa and commutes with it, up to about 235k miles now. A few things.. the rear bumper cover clips love to break, so it's barely noticeable but the bumpers don't always line up. Valley plates are notorious for failing but those issues are usually resolved early on. Natural wear and tear - bushings fail by that time, so if it wasn't maintained regularly, look at that. Interior likes to melt, so sometimes the dash and doors look like crap if they're not changed out. OEM suspension feels like a race car, so you usually have to change those out if you plan to daily in comfort. Honestly, overall.. they're great cars to have so long as they're taken care of, even higher miles.
@@pearldrums92 Also note, except for the valley plate, nothing else is a "HAVE TO" do item. It's just preference.
He gives me an amazing vibe. An awesome dude with a lot of talent and a cute doggo. what more do you want ?
wow that motor is clean inside! Good info on preloading control arms, hadn't thought of that.
Love your videos, Jared. I look forward to seeing you either in this site or with Tavarish. Your explanations are top-notch, and I admire you for your love of your pup.
Sweet video!! Been looking at a sporty daily to compliment my lifted LX470 and the ISF has been a top pick! Can’t wait to pick one up.
Love it, keep it coming. Inspiring me to spend sometime restoring my IS250.
The definition of 'immensely wet' has changed through the years - kind of like the definition of 'phone'. If this were an aircooled VW, this is called 'dry'.
I owned a 3rd gen IS350. Your videos have convinced me the 2nd gen IS-F is what I really need n
Awesome work Jared
Engine looks fresh inside wow
Video is so informative just for general mechanics, SUBSCRIBED!!!
I gotta get me one those! Great video. Lexus/Toyota seems to overbuild their engines. I had a gs400 with 300k on it. Leaky valve covers were about the extent of the problems at that mileage. Glad to know these ISFs can hold up as I will be buying a high mileage one soon myself.
If you have a Mini-inductor, the dust shield on any Lexus rear wheel bearing (rear wheel drive vehicles) is super easy to put on. Just heat it up till it glows and it will fall into place.
Next thing you need to is check for a coolant leak from the valley plate under the intake manifold.
Blown away how clean it is under the cover, I'm also blown away at certain parts of my 335 000miles audi a8l . It was supposed to be a part car but the thing is impressively good shape
awesome vid!!! loving the lexus acfion. extra loving the everyday mechanical stuff too! And especially loving that soundtrack. picked some filth tunes for this vid, nice work 👌🔥🔥🔥
Let's all just agree the dog was the best supervisor!! 💯💯
they always are... Especially the bestest of the goodest doggos 👌🐶
Having a pet with you when working alone really helps pass the time and at times keeps your frustration level down when things just don't go your way.
Totally needs a raise. More cookies
as an 06 is350 owner, i appreciate this video. I already have those upper control arms and theyre wonderful
Your dog is sooooo cute. You are right, she was supervising you and making sure you are safe.
If only I could figure out how to work in fast forward like your videos I could get so much done. I would love to have you as a friend and neighbor Jared!
Thanks for introducing the Lexus IS-F. It is a beast. Had no idea.
Wow, that motor looks amazing. I wish the previous owner on my M3 would have taken care of it. It was pretty damn Bronze and sludgy after only 120k. Damn PO's.
Loving the host/editor frienemy synergy!😂👌🏾
Impressive wrench work!!
During the Johnny build I was skeptical about the extreme angles of the steering shaft. I would have been happy to be wrong, but I am glad you are fixing that.
Awesome video! Those Toyota’s will run forever if you maintain them 🔥💪🏼
I am amazed how people like you have the patience to work on this tedious taks.
I use to enjoy car repairs, not any more.
Own a 2010 isf and I have to say that it puts a smile on my face once you smoke other cars. Great vid!
You say that till you go against an sti off the line and he launches hard as fuck on you 😂
@@Bigbrunibelow I doubt it
@@Bigbrunibelow an sti🤣
@@Bigbrunibelow then it blows a head gasket and the ISF passes right on by ;)
chris bruni doesn’t matter how hard a stock sti launches it can launch at redline and it will still get smoked after 60mph. The isf can easily keep up with a stock sti from a dig. Even if a sti is fbo a fbo isf will still beat it. The isf motor will outlast that shitty EJ motor as well LOL
Very interesting! Since I own Lexus LS 430 myself, I might use your video as a reference in near future.
every time i see this it makes me think . MAN I WISH I HAD BOUGHT AN ISF INSTEAD OF MY IS350 :( X 100000 UGGGH, MAN if id just not been lazy and driven the distance id have had one. the values of them keep going up it seems like too
dont get me wrong i loveeeeeeee this build!! im so happy to see you doing stuff to your isf and showing us how amazing this lexus platform is! it truly is the best platform imo, luxary and reliable power
Excellent video, well done!
I don't comment much here but I wanted to let you know I really enjoy this channel.Thank you
love the Lexus is content 👌, keep up the good work
Jared you're awesome, thank you sir, great video. Car Trek 3!!! They're getting 3 seasons done when Grand Tour can't even finish the second episode for the season 😳
It's always great learning from you I used to have a 07 is350 but I really wanted and ISF
Agreed Jarred, I got Beck/Arnley valve cover gaskets for my 4.0 Tacoma and they were also made in japan. I too have read and believe the same, seems like they are sourcing close if not the same manufactures as the oem stuff. Nice car and vid btw, i love my 3IS Toyota group makes very sold cars. I so want a ISF now! LOL
Lovin' the new retro wave music around the 15 minute mark.
It is incredible how clean that engine is inside amazing.
So I see the RR Racing intake. My buddy used to work there. The procharger setup they sell for these is a really good upgrade
Really enjoy your videos!
Great video. love my isf, mine has 106k miles, only thing had to replace was AC/heater blower, other than that no problems whatsoever.
My wife's 08 RX 350 has 240k miles. I just changed the original Lexus battery after 12 years and a tune up from original plugs and coils. It's our second Lexus, she flipped and rolled her first, going 71 mph and walked away without a scratch.
Amazing proof that good quality synthetic motor oil/oli changes and good use of engine (operating temperature) will keep it in good shape.
Jar ed ... ou are sutch a nice guy! Reallty nice to follow yuor "walkthrue" hope to see more of you and that you get some profit out or the work you put in yo it all! Say hello to Tavarisch allso!
Toyota/Lexus quality is so damn good. My wife has just done 8,000 miles in her 2019 and now won’t entertain any other make (after six Mercs in a row)....- that’s got to be some recommendation don’t you think? Stay safe buddy, good channel.
😂😂 Loved the running commentary and delivery.
Recently bought a mint condition 2011 IS250 with about 50,000 miles on the clock. About half the engine as the legendary IS-F, but still a nice driving car.
You are one of the best mechanics I've ever seen.
as a newly Acquired ISF owner myself this is amazing to see and gives me high hopes for mine with 158k miles lol
Right about 6:20 shows how romantic the use of a slide hammer can be
Such an amazing machine! Goals for me to own an isf in the fleet 👌
RUclips getting wayyy too comfortable with these double ads! 😠
Great video, Jared! 👍
Jared: What do you think?
Doggo: It's borked
Good work Jared 👍🏼
I must admit watching this video has made me realise actually how good Lexus are, I drive a CT200h and it just never goes wrong !!
Cute white golden ! Hate changing a wheel bearing, since i don’t have a press tool, ended up changing a whole knuckle with new bearing on my 300k miles Lexus.
Oh, now I know what my next car will be. Thanks Jared!
The music in this one reminds me of the good old Macgyver theme.
Great DIY thanks!
awesome video about lexus IS-F
my favorite mechanic on youtube.. id love to hang out with Jared and spend time working on cars. pyrra also. 😂
You have a great dog channel with awesome car related intermissions 😁
I’ve been waiting for a video from you guys!!!! What’s going on,were you guys on vacation ⁉️⁉️💯⁉️⁉️
I own a 220,000 mile IS F and the “oil consumption” is real, at 185,000 or so I thought it was just wear but looked one day and seen the high pressure pump gaskets were both gone. I need to do this
We need to get you a headlamp. Glad your making these
Hey Jared, so the dust shield is a one time use part. It's far easier to go ahead and just break it out of there and then install a new one. The easiest way to install a new one is to heat the new shield with a map gas torch until it is bright red hot and then just slide it in there. Though, this does require the sensor to be removed, which it looks like you managed it all anyways.
Thankfully a southern car doesn't have the same severe corrosion and they are reusable
I'm seeing the same oil seepage on my isf. Did you experience any smoke coming out of the exhaust when stepping on the gas pedal aggressively? I'm curious what is the estimated cost of repair for a valve gasket replacement. Awesome video BTW.
ISF is a GREAT CONTENT! Big Fan Auditory!
Awesome presentation . I wish show us the cost of upgrade and modify dodge 1500 pickup . Thank you for these videos you rock man .
Great content and knowledge what kind of wheels and spec you running on Lexus ?
Check around 20:05 on you'll see a leak on your drivers side likely from the hoses above.. can see the liquid spraying in the air. Also on your plastic covers..
I have a 2015 IS350 Fsport, I wish they had kept the ISF going into the third gen as I think the car could use a couple more cylinders, hoping the rumors of a forthcoming "IS500" are true.
I used to have a (heavily modified) WRX wagon; valve cover gaskets require the engine to be pulled, so glad to be in a "V" configuration again, but more so in a car that I won't likely have to work on for most of my ownership. Previously it was mustangs, I miss V8's, time to work on my 66 project I suppose.
That engine did look very clean! I see many that look "gold anodized" under the valve cover!
ngl u look like u having so much fun putting in new parts in ur car dude. im a bit jealous.
My brother has a 2010 IS-F... And we're planning on taking it on a 5 day roadtrip to the mountains (we're based on the East Coast of Australia).
Nice video, thanks :-) very informative.
Enjoy the trip! They get great economy if you can stay light on the go stick.
@@TheQuestionableGarage They sure do... my daily is a 2011 IS350 F-Sport, and the IS-F's economy so far has been as good if not better.
Heheh love that you have a hands-on er, paws-on supervisor inspecting your work :)
Back in the day I had a gs400, I really miss that car. Nothing like a lexus V8 car
Lexus V8 is the reason why lexus will always be better than ACura
Hey Jarrad, you and Freddie should hire me to keep site 2 and site 1 going while you all are out filming and doing the PR of RUclips. I can keep the builds going, maintenance, and otherwise. Cheers!
Great video boss
Love the Pyrrha cam!!
I also own 2008 ISF I LOVE IT with 150’000km no issues whatsoever
Hi J thx for that vid as I’m over here in the Uk an now realising I’ve got a lot more miles to go on my Is-F. Cheers bro.
Ps u make that job look so dam easy lol.
Thanks for the video! Would an adjustable rear control arm solution, like the one you showed, work on a Lexus GS350? I'd love to install one of those solutions to get rid of the negative camber on my GS350 that was lowered on a set of coilovers.
