Hello friends , would you be willing to help my channel with a sub ? you dont have to watch my crappy videos and it helps my channels discover ability, Thanks ...
Thanks for the video, I just subbed your channel. Quick question, I'm thinking about just measuring exactly how much fluid drains out after removing both plug and straw. Then adding that exact amount back in. My camry has 40k and the transmission is working great. So it seems as long as I'm comfortable/confident that the fluid level is correct now then it should be the same afterwards correct?
@@18whlsrolin I changed trans fluid 6 times on my 2012 Camry bought with 93400 miles on the odometer and no trans maintenance. Car has been running better. I followed the same method offered in this video. Fluid color looked a little better after the 5th change but still not clear red. Work was done at the same time at each change - early in the morning, same jack stand height, 2 quarts out, 2 quarts in as measured. At the 3rd change the hex hole of the drain plug got rounded upon tightening and I had to pay dealer 7 dollars for a new plug. To save the hex hole I use it only for torquing at tightening on the 4th, 5th and 6th change. To open the plug, I carefully used a vise grip, which left a couple of bite marks on the soft plug. I used new gaskets on the plugs at each change.
Man you're a LIFESAVER! I've been stuck at home for days searching youtube on how to do this, you're the ONLY one that directly clarifies this and how THANK YOU!!!
This video was very helpful to me when I bought my 93400-mile 2012 Camry with no trans maintenance record. I followed the presented method, and used the same funnel holding vise that rested on top of the battery. I changed the fluid 6 times, always first thing in the morning to be sure fluid is cold - same jack stand height always. 2 quarts out and 2 quarts in. Car then ran better. When I tightened and torqued the drain plug at the 3rd change the hex hole got rounded. Replacement plug from dealer cost only 7 dollars. I then used a vise grip each time I opened the soft plug, and saved the hole only for tightening with torque spec. The vise grip left a couple of bite marks but did no harm. I intend to leave the fluid pan and filter alone. Many thanks to NOBOX7! I have subscribed!
@B B I bought a 2012 Camry with TC shudder just a few months ago. 170k miles on it and if I had mentioned the shudder to the dealer before I bought it they more than likely would've replaced it for free, but as I didn't I had to call them back and they gave me a 50% off deal for the procedure that replaces the TC. Runs much better without the shudder but I'm sure the original owner never changed the transmission fluid so I notice slightly hard shifts when the transmission is cold but they almost disappear completely when warm.
al is I couldn’t tell you. I’d be surprised if it didn’t go up until the next refresh year, but I unfortunately have no knowledge of the subject apart from my own situation. My apologies
for people who plan to drain and fill exact amount and skip the leveling car, 95-113 degree etc, I advise to measure the new fluid amount with the same container that hold the old fluid. Dont plan to have 2 identical container and place them side by side like what i almost do.
Thanks for the info. I did the same thing I was scratching my head. Got to love RUclips. Mine has been shifting hard when turning corners. So I went to check the fluid and you know what happens from there. LOL I appreciate you taking the time to make this video. I have a 2010 we got used with about 150k. that's the one I'm working on. And I also have a 1999 we bought new it has 439k on it and still going , changed the tranny fluid 3 times. But that is not saying that you don't need to change your tranny fluid. I have since learned the importance of keeping the fluid clean. I change it now every 100k . their are some very good videos on here that explains when to change and what will happen when you don't . you will know just by the color of the fluid. And most people don't think to change the rear differential oil, Of course if you have a rear wheel drive. I can't tell you how many I've opened up and the oil was silver. The oil would get low or lose it's viscosity and the bearing all start wearing out. I like to change it every 100k also. and jack it up very high in the back when filling to allow more fluid to go in . because it also lubes the outer wheel bearings. but be safe when jacking it up very high and getting under the vehicle. This might sound crazy but some time back I cut down a tree in my yard. and I cut some 24 inch high pieces of wood thats about 18 inchs wide. better than any jack stand. My cousin was smashed when his truck fell on him in the dirt. never use jack stands in the dirt . he was pinned for hours he had to dig his self out from under the truck with a broken back. Always be safe. Jack it up then shake the car try to make it fall. then go under.
I have a 2013 Camry. Completed four drain and fills. Remove the drain plug and straw and 2.5 quarts come out every time. Put the straw and drain plug back on. Add exactly 2.5 quarts. Car will shift fine and run smooth every time. It is an aisin transmission. I have used Mobil Toyota WS for the first two drain and fills. I used Ravenol WS Toyota for the next two drain and fills. Car runs great. The Ravenol Toyota WS is a PAO Group 4 ATF full synthetic. The Mobil Toyota WS is not full synthetic. A full synthetic will not oxidize as quickly as a non synthetic.

Edward Cook thanks so much for the information, I also have a 2013 Camry, however I would like to know how you did the drain and refill , transmission fluid COLD or HOT(104 f) ??? Thanks !
Edward Cook thanks so much, yes, I jumped all tedious process , I left the car overnight in my garage also the new fluid, so theoretically all fluid has the same temperature, drained the fluid, 2.5 came out as you said and no problems whatsoever, by the way just in case I prefer to use all time the transmission fluid that Toyota offers even I have to change the fluid yearly, my Camry XLE only has 80K and runs and looks perfect, once again thanks !
Thanks man , i looked this info up years ago and found myself forced to sit threw an entire class , crazy , we dont have time for this , but i tell this friend , to date this video has made me $370 insane .

In several cases, if you have a shuddering issue in your transmission, changing the fluid will mitigate the issue. Use caution however because changing the fluid in an older transmission with a substantial amount of miles on it may actually cause failure.
I just had the transmission fluid changed in my wifes Camry. The service advisor recommended it. Now when the car has set over night it kinda jerks and the rpm hand bounces when drove for the first time. Didn't have this trouble before. Dealership says they can't get it to do it after keeping it for 2 weeks. I gave them a video of it doing it. Now I'm fighting with them to make it right. So right now the extra warranty we bought is doing us no good.
I’ll tell you a quick story. Just with my head unit navigation wasn’t loading and that was my only problem when I took my camry to the dealer. I had to pay 3500 3x and they never even texted my head unit after charging it and then the last time the screen cracked and they blamed me... so flight with them forever and lost.. a long battle. Then I went aftermarket. Just find a hole in the wall Lexus Toyota specialist and go that way. I’ve been doing it and working ever since
ive found toyota dealerships to be really bad. they have even screwed up simple oil changes. in your case they probably either put too much fluid back in or too little fluid
I do all my preventive maintenance on my cars and I was looking at a 2018 Camry as my next car and it will not be an option after watching this. Toyota engineers were high when putting the fill plug there
toyota has become a company that is about cheating their customers, everything is about money with them now. they used to be a great company that made vehicles you could service yourself and that would last forever. now they dont want you to service your own vehicle and dont want it to last past 200K miles. they have even made oil changes much more difficult than they have to be. its pretty shameful if you ask me
Easy way.. Just remove the fill plug. Disconnect the transmission return line. Stick a hose on it. Stick the hose a bucket. Start the car and start filling the transmission while it runs in park. When you see the new fluid coming out. Turn off the car. Clean the Standpipe.. Stick it back in. Fill to proper level. Put the drain bolt on. You're done. 100% fluid change.
I used a garden hose when i did my 2015 Yaris, UK spec. Wasn't no need to remove or turn the wheel, as there was room from the top, it did take 2.2L, poured in 2.3L & i'll change it again in 6 month with the spare 2.2L left from the 5L i got. I did get the proper Toyota CVT fluid which cost £42.
Toyota recommends not to do this before 100k Miles.The manufacture specification is to check the fluid level at 104-113 degrees. Not over or under since fluids expands and could cause incorrect readings.
When I drained my vehicle I used my shop vac. Just put a vinyl hose into the fill port and put a container in the vac and just turned it on. What I took out I just put back in. Easy piesie.
My Mother in Law had her transmission serviced recently. Started leaking fluid from the breather and was all over the engine bay. She was told she needed to replace her transmission and was quoted 3k. I told her I would look into it. Her transmission was running great before it was serviced. Turns out the shop overserviced it was extra tranny fluid. My brother had a scanner that read the transmission temp and you are correct. 104 F is where you take your measurement until the fluid stops draining at the drain plug with the straw installed. The Avalon is running great and no more tranny leaks.
@@Russsir I just had my 2020 Camry XLE, 8-speed transmission fluid changed.. It had 6,500 miles on it.. I did it for preventative maintenance.. I know it was early but I do stuff like that.. the total price was $290. The Toyota dealership sent me a $100 coupon that I used.. So it cost 190.00.. I would not have done it quite so early if they had not gave me the $100 coupon. These services have really went up.. Before that I had a Honda Accord and I think the Honda dealership only charged $169 to change it.. I've noticed the Toyota dealership is higher on the services..
@@dvader3000 It was 6,500 MI. I always do the first oil change and transmission fluid change early.. It was only 190 bucks. Also got the transmission memory reset for good measure.
@Frank Lopez I don't think I would recommend changing the fluid DIY.. maybe changing it if you could put the correct amount in.. the Toyota place told me they flushed mine and it is a lot more procedural and could be critical if it was not done correctly.
If you can get to the lines going into the cooler remove them place a tube on the end of entry line and into new bottle. Place a tube on exit line into empty bottle. Now have a helper start car while you keep an eye on new trans fluid bottle until almost empty as you don't want to pull air into transmission. Repeat process with new bottles until you see new fluid coming out of exit line. Turning car off between bottles and as soon as you see new fluid come out of exit line.
Did this again today in my 2011 Camry. Got out 2 qt exactly, put in 2.75 and .75 bled off at 105 degrees by the time I got under car to take off aluminum plug. Fluid getting cleaner each time I do this. 138K now did it for first time at 133K. Used a bidirectional scanner to determine fluid temperature.
Nice vid. When when I change trans fluid in my ‘10 Mazda 6 (with a dipstick) about 3.4 quarts come out, start the car, fill it slowly, then run it through the gears. 366K miles now. My ‘11 parts car Mazda.. no dipstick. Updated version, my smart mechanic says it’s a whole different transmission. Probably has the straw.
Great idea but the benefit of removing the drain plug is that any microscopic debris (metal shavings etc.) that have settled at the bottom of the pan and will flush with the fluid. A pump might help remove the fluid, but maintenance wise, the plug route will have a better impact on removing said debris.
Few things - transfer pump totally unnecessary using the funnel like you did works fine I’m not sure why yours is so slow mine goes fast. It’s a 24 mm fill bolt. Removing the drain bolt and the straw typically gets you about 2 quarts of fluid which is what you seem to have shown. If you feel that level was correct to begin with add 4-6 more ounces than you drained so that when you do the fluid check procedure you’ll definitely get some drainage. Make sure that you screw the straw back in properly. The straw goes in relatively easy then goes through a period of what I consider tightness and then gets easy again. Point is the straw after its flush with the pan will get another several turns before it bottoms out well within the drain plug hole. After the bottom head of the straw is flush with the pan I get an additional nine revolutions before it bottoms out on my Highlander. If you haven’t put the straw in properly the drain bolt won’t go back in properly either. Just remember it goes in fairly deep before bottoming out. You mentioned a flush and it’s fairly easy it doesn’t take a whole lot more time than this process. Remove the return line to the tranny that comes from the radiator or the external ATF cooler. Hook up a vinyl tube to that line and put it in a bucket that you can see the measurements on. Start the car allow the engine to pump 1 to 2 quarts of fluid out. Turn off the car. Fill the car with what you removed. Repeat this two or three times or until you’re happy with the fluid coming out being new. On the last fill add 4-8 ounces of additional fluid and do the temperature check at 104 deg while the car is in park and running and level. Straightforward and pretty easy to do. Thanks for posting
00-05 Impala is similar. I like to take off the cooler lines at the radiator and have a helper start the engine while I add fresh tranny fluid to the feed line with a similar hose and funnel setup like in NoBox7 .s video while the old fluid drains from the other line into a bucket until it runs clear.
Many things were left out of this video to do it properly to include the biggest one is your car needs to be level. Just jacked up in the front and your fluid amount will be way off. Started off strong with the great drawing of the overflow tube and correct fill temp but it all went downhill from there. "You add the new transmission fluid by removing the fluid level dipstick, and inserting a narrow-mouthed funnel into the dip stick tube." Uh, there isn't a dipstick or tube for that matter, it's a fill plug.
2:18 would that be the same location for a 2011 Camry? Should I leave it alone since you said there’s been people that drove it for 300k miles without changing it? I want my car to last as long as possible and it currently have 130k bought it used at 88k and had the transmission flushed at 110k and I guess it still shifts fine. Makes a noise when I first start the car and it shifts from first gear to second. Any idea what it could be? Thanks.
not sure about the sound , probly just cold . you need to change the fluid , you may not be as lucky as some of the careless people in my stories . If your door fell off your house would you change it or just leave the hinges flapping in the wind for another 280k ? 😂😂😂
NOBOX7 I’ve never seen 30k interval recommended for any transmission service. I’ve seen 75k recommended at different shops and dealerships but never 30k. I’ve only had 1 service advisor tell me 30k miles and I asked him if he was stupid.
Where are you locate it and I have a question please I own a 2014 Camry and the Previous owner never change the transmission fluid if I do it now what happens
good info, thanks. Think I'll just use my fluid pump to put in whatever I can suction out. My only concern would be dislodging a chunk of metal shavings off the magnet with the suction hose.
excellent video, best one I've seen on this Camry, short and sweet. So it looks like I can change it cold but I have to replace the exact amount I took out. therefor I don't have to worry about having the correct temperature. Which is good news work around.
Glad here friend and yes you can just put back what came out however you should do this twice to flush the torque converter , it alone contains 3 or 5 quarts of fluid . Glad you noticed the streamlined footage of this job i made it quick and to the point for people just like you , there is another guy who is in a wheel chair , great guy but his vid just Taylord a novice crowd like a teacher in a class , so i commend him but after watching and going threw this i had to do the world a service because other guys who post have really helped me threw some tough jobs.
@@luptonpittman6520 I realize that... Still it's the transmission that makes the difference, no? We have a 2009 RAV4 with a 2.5 liter engine and 4-speed automatic. A few years later the same vehicle and same engine got the newer 6-speed transmission.
I'm a 3rd owner of a toyota camry 2012, the car has 200.000 km, it's running smooth but i want to change the oil, so i visit toyota service center, and they said they will change, but after changing if the transmission broke down after couple of days, they will not responsible for that, becouse they don't recommend to change oil after 100 or 200 km, now please give me some advice, what should I do, i have 2 fear now, if i change then might it broke down, if i don't change it might also damage the transmission....??
Comes on when most cars just the check engine light comes on. Mine did at 77K. It was my A/F sensor. So I changed both A/F and O2 sensor and reset lights and they have been off since. 133K currently
I’ve heard a transmission flush is bad for the transmission. Have you flushed it? I asked for my 2011 Camry to be drained and filled but the shop I took it too insisted on flushing it.
A flush is not bad for the transmission unless the transmission has already started slipping. Flushing the transmission removes micro particles of metal from wear on the transmission due to hotrodding or wear and tear from not replacing fluid every 50,000 miles. Fluid should be flushed and replaced every 50,000 miles on any vehicle as well as changing the filter. I've seen well taken care of transmissions get to 500,000 miles or more.
I have a 2010 Camry too. Mine can be late on selecting the next gear. It drives my engine up to 6,000 rpm and sometimes won't change until I release the trottle a little.
A lack of fluid in the torque converter will not allow the impeller and propellers to do their job. Among other things, your transmission might not have enough fluid. However, this should not be an issue if the system is sealed. Do you have any leaks?
We have a 2009 RAV4 with the 2.5 liter four cylinder engine. It has only 44,000 miles on it. An ATF drain and fill was done at 28,000 miles. PROBLEM...The fluid is running higher than 190°F much of the time and has gone as high as 226°F recently after climbing a long hill and shifting back and forth from 3rd and 4th a number of times. What to do? The Toyota dealer wants to do a reverse power flush. I'm very reluctant to do that. This coming Monday, I have the vehicle scheduled to have an auxiliary after market transmission fluid cooler installed. I'm hoping that will solve the problem.
Is it possible for a tech to have messed up my AC evaporator during the transmission fluid drain and fill I just had done at the dealership? I've got a puddle of water under my car after running my AC now.
Thanks for the video. I like that you have the best Impact tool ever. I own the 16v and the 20v Rockwell Impact/drill combo. They are awesome. Thanks for the video again
I have a 2014 Camry se and was told by the dealer to not change the fluid until I reach 100k 😕😕 the manual don't even say to change it it says to check but it's sealed the dealer told me they can do it through a machine, now idk who to believe..
So what happened in between 3:47 and 3:48. How did you take the 'straw' out? If there's no dipstick and the transmission screws are very finicky then why did you skip how you took out the bolts and straw? This is ridiculous. The video is not about you getting the job done but HOW YOU DID THE JOB.
@ 3:49 you foot comes out of your mouth hopefully , this is clearly a hex socket with said straw still on it . sorry i didnt think one would need more info then this
@@NOBOX7 Maybe you should hold the hex socket in your toes and show how you took it out and what was tricky about it that you had mentioned. If you're so thin skinned and are making videos to show HOW TO DO IT then show HOW YOU DID IT. Why not just skip the whole video and show the end and say, "... that's how you check the fluid change and checks". Stop the replies to this reply from me and FIX what I'm questioning.
I recently did this on my 2012 Camry with 130k miles, changed the filter too and now it’s squealing when I step on the gas. I did every step correctly tho and I’m stuck with an embarrassing noise from my car. It still shifts fine, actually smoother than before but the noise… what should I do?
Did this today on my 2011 Camry. It took longer for me to level car with wood and jacks than to do entire process. Got out 2.25 qts. And put in 2.75 and bled off at 104-108 F. Used a bidirectional scanner to determine temperature. Car shifted awesome when I was done. 133K on car and never been changed before. Fluid looked great still. It was dark but had the pink color when sloshed in jug. 80% of these miles are highway. I am going to do this 2 more times in the next 4 months.
Great info and tech advice. I only wish you had the camera on a tripod or had a friend hold it. It jumps all over the place and makes it hard to concentrate. You need to had slow steady hands or a tripod. Thanks NOBOX
Good video, I just wish you would of show us rookies how you went or go about actually checking the oil and how you remove the straw, I take it once done, and after adding the new fluid, you will need to check the fluid level..
My 13 toyota camry is knocking on the 2nd gear Hello,Do you think this could resolve the problem? Or what else...I checked the engine mounts and they r still in good condition, thanks.
@@bluethundar How would you ever know? Dealers care about making money and just because they are charging the customer "an arm and a leg" for a particular service, it doesn't mean they will do the complete procedure as you request and are paying for. Unless you are there to witness the procedure. Which they would never allow. You have no way of confirming the complete fluid was replaced.
Thank you so much for your video...I have a company work car 2015 Camry , and it makes a humming sound while accelerating, WHY would Toyota make something like this ! ??? that has NO dip stick ! (so you can spend $$$ at the dealer ???)
do you have any idea why Camry's like the model in your video all seem to have this problem where the 'traction light', "ABS light" and "Emergency Brake" light all come on and stay on? So many Camry's have this problem..??
Gerard Haughey Programmed to do this. Just pull codes and fix. Read my other post earlier in comments. All my lights came on at 77K and it was my upper A/F sensor so I changed both the A/F and the O2 sensor and lights have been off ever since. 138K. Currently
Yes. That's why he put the old fluid in the plastic jug and you will want to mark where the old fluid tops. Pour the old into another container and put the new fluid in the container with the mark. That's the best way to get it close, being there is no dipstick.

In several cases, if you have a shuddering issue in your transmission, changing the fluid will mitigate the issue. Use caution however because changing the fluid in an older transmission with a substantial amount of miles on it may actually cause failure.
You're thinking of a flush, slowly mixing new fluid with existing fluid is really only beneficial
I just had the transmission fluid changed in my wifes Camry. The service advisor recommended it. Now when the car has set over night it kinda jerks and the rpm hand bounces when drove for the first time. Didn't have this trouble before. Dealership says they can't get it to do it after keeping it for 2 weeks. I gave them a video of it doing it. Now I'm fighting with them to make it right. So right now the extra warranty we bought is doing us no good.
so what happened?
I’ll tell you a quick story. Just with my head unit navigation wasn’t loading and that was my only problem when I took my camry to the dealer. I had to pay 3500 3x and they never even texted my head unit after charging it and then the last time the screen cracked and they blamed me... so flight with them forever and lost.. a long battle. Then I went aftermarket. Just find a hole in the wall Lexus Toyota specialist and go that way. I’ve been doing it and working ever since
ive found toyota dealerships to be really bad. they have even screwed up simple oil changes. in your case they probably either put too much fluid back in or too little fluid
I do all my preventive maintenance on my cars and I was looking at a 2018 Camry as my next car and it will not be an option after watching this. Toyota engineers were high when putting the fill plug there
That's some bs on Toyota. Steelership wanted 250 n said my warranty covers the rest. Good God!!! Ef people take money money.
Many car companies do this. They are securing their job by making it where the consumer cant work on it.
I used to do my transmission fluid changes myself before Toyota decided to complicate things. My car would last longer when I could do that.
toyota has become a company that is about cheating their customers, everything is about money with them now. they used to be a great company that made vehicles you could service yourself and that would last forever. now they dont want you to service your own vehicle and dont want it to last past 200K miles. they have even made oil changes much more difficult than they have to be. its pretty shameful if you ask me
Nah, just replace what ya take out and ur fine. Just let each fluid reach room temp to gauge them equal.
Easy way.. Just remove the fill plug. Disconnect the transmission return line. Stick a hose on it. Stick the hose a bucket. Start the car and start filling the transmission while it runs in park. When you see the new fluid coming out. Turn off the car. Clean the Standpipe.. Stick it back in. Fill to proper level. Put the drain bolt on. You're done. 100% fluid change.
The pan, old nasty filter and magnets need to be removed replaced and cleaned.Don't do half horse work.
Thank you! Wow!
You can also measure the oil drained out and match the amount of oil put in. That way you will not over fill.
What other problems can happen if you have too much fluid or too little fluid
I used a garden hose when i did my 2015 Yaris, UK spec. Wasn't no need to remove or turn the wheel, as there was room from the top, it did take 2.2L, poured in 2.3L & i'll change it again in 6 month with the spare 2.2L left from the 5L i got. I did get the proper Toyota CVT fluid which cost £42.
Toyota recommends not to do this before 100k Miles.The manufacture specification is to check the fluid level at 104-113 degrees. Not over or under since fluids expands and could cause incorrect readings.
Just checked mine at 80k and it's getting brownish. Mind you it gets only highway use
@@JustChillenWassup how did you check it???
@@brett777 if you remove the pan bolt and just let the overflow run off a bit, then you can get enough to check.
Toyota also makes a bundle selling new cars....
104-113 for V6. 95-113 for the I4
When I drained my vehicle I used my shop vac. Just put a vinyl hose into the fill port and put a container in the vac and just turned it on. What I took out I just put back in. Easy piesie.
My Mother in Law had her transmission serviced recently. Started leaking fluid from the breather and was all over the engine bay. She was told she needed to replace her transmission and was quoted 3k. I told her I would look into it. Her transmission was running great before it was serviced. Turns out the shop overserviced it was extra tranny fluid. My brother had a scanner that read the transmission temp and you are correct. 104 F is where you take your measurement until the fluid stops draining at the drain plug with the straw installed. The Avalon is running great and no more tranny leaks.
Did you sue the shop for fraud? Stopping criminals is fun and profitable. They'll pay you off to settle out of court if you prove they overfilled it.
Hey bro was that a special scanner or a regular scanner?
Nice job on the video. Straight & to the point. Thanks for taking the effort to make it.
Saving up for the dealer now...😂
@@Russsir I just had my 2020 Camry XLE, 8-speed transmission fluid changed.. It had 6,500 miles on it.. I did it for preventative maintenance.. I know it was early but I do stuff like that.. the total price was $290. The Toyota dealership sent me a $100 coupon that I used.. So it cost 190.00.. I would not have done it quite so early if they had not gave me the $100 coupon. These services have really went up.. Before that I had a Honda Accord and I think the Honda dealership only charged $169 to change it.. I've noticed the Toyota dealership is higher on the services..
@@charlesjackson1700 in reality you did nothing but waste time and money.
Unless you meant 65 000 miles you only threw away your money
@@dvader3000 It was 6,500 MI.
I always do the first oil change and transmission fluid change early.. It was only 190 bucks.
Also got the transmission memory reset for good measure.
@Frank Lopez it has to be right?
@Frank Lopez I don't think I would recommend changing the fluid DIY.. maybe changing it if you could put the correct amount in.. the Toyota place told me they flushed mine and it is a lot more procedural and could be critical if it was not done correctly.
Thank you for this video The "straw" you mentioned is called a standpipe !
I think the straw he mentioned is an 'overflow tube '
Hmm. Okay. And the little plastic drain thingy that canes with an oil filter is called a service pipe.
If you can get to the lines going into the cooler remove them place a tube on the end of entry line and into new bottle. Place a tube on exit line into empty bottle. Now have a helper start car while you keep an eye on new trans fluid bottle until almost empty as you don't want to pull air into transmission. Repeat process with new bottles until you see new fluid coming out of exit line. Turning car off between bottles and as soon as you see new fluid come out of exit line.
Thankyou Sensei , great idea
What trans fluid brand did you use?
Did this again today in my 2011 Camry. Got out 2 qt exactly, put in 2.75 and .75 bled off at 105 degrees by the time I got under car to take off aluminum plug. Fluid getting cleaner each time I do this. 138K now did it for first time at 133K. Used a bidirectional scanner to determine fluid temperature.
What kind of fluid did you use ?
What kind of scanner did you use?

I hope you had the car level, and not just with the front jacked up. Otherwise, the tube overflow level will not be so accurate.
Nice vid. When when I change trans fluid in my ‘10 Mazda 6 (with a dipstick) about 3.4 quarts come out, start the car, fill it slowly, then run it through the gears. 366K miles now.
My ‘11 parts car Mazda.. no dipstick. Updated version, my smart mechanic says it’s a whole different transmission. Probably has the straw.
Are you able to use a vacuum pump to pump out the fluid from fill hole, the fill exact amount. No removing of drain plug at all
W Wsn is
Great idea but the benefit of removing the drain plug is that any microscopic debris (metal shavings etc.) that have settled at the bottom of the pan and will flush with the fluid. A pump might help remove the fluid, but maintenance wise, the plug route will have a better impact on removing said debris.
@@bendrake2214
In order to fully drain the oil pan on the transmission you would have to remove the pan.
just bought my first toyota thanks this video really helped me.
Me too. Paid cash for my 2012 Camry.
Few things - transfer pump totally unnecessary using the funnel like you did works fine I’m not sure why yours is so slow mine goes fast. It’s a 24 mm fill bolt. Removing the drain bolt and the straw typically gets you about 2 quarts of fluid which is what you seem to have shown. If you feel that level was correct to begin with add 4-6 more ounces than you drained so that when you do the fluid check procedure you’ll definitely get some drainage. Make sure that you screw the straw back in properly. The straw goes in relatively easy then goes through a period of what I consider tightness and then gets easy again. Point is the straw after its flush with the pan will get another several turns before it bottoms out well within the drain plug hole. After the bottom head of the straw is flush with the pan I get an additional nine revolutions before it bottoms out on my Highlander. If you haven’t put the straw in properly the drain bolt won’t go back in properly either. Just remember it goes in fairly deep before bottoming out. You mentioned a flush and it’s fairly easy it doesn’t take a whole lot more time than this process. Remove the return line to the tranny that comes from the radiator or the external ATF cooler. Hook up a vinyl tube to that line and put it in a bucket that you can see the measurements on. Start the car allow the engine to pump 1 to 2 quarts of fluid out. Turn off the car. Fill the car with what you removed. Repeat this two or three times or until you’re happy with the fluid coming out being new. On the last fill add 4-8 ounces of additional fluid and do the temperature check at 104 deg while the car is in park and running and level. Straightforward and pretty easy to do. Thanks for posting
Paragraphs man
I heard that you have to get the temp of the fluid as close to 120° F
No, its 104 degrees
This video answered a lot of questioned for me. Thanks!
Going to drop the pan and change the filter. Wonder how accurate for aftermarket dipsticks with temperature so sensitive.
i just do it when the fluid is cold, i add in the same amount of cold fluid that i was able to remove
Hello so 1 gallon came out of what u just did? I’m planning on doing the same process and just drain and fill.
Great video! Question, did you just jacked the front or all 4 sides?
00-05 Impala is similar. I like to take off the cooler lines at the radiator and have a helper start the engine while I add fresh tranny fluid to the feed line with a similar hose and funnel setup like in NoBox7 .s video while the old fluid drains from the other line into a bucket until it runs clear.
00-05 impala has a dipstick and normal drain plug

iphones are junk though lol
*_HOW DID YOU PUT THE BOLT BACK ON WITHOUT FLUID COMING OUT EVERYWHERE? ALSO, DOESNT HAVE TO BE AT A CERTAIN TEMP TO PUT BACK IN?_*
He put in the same amount he took out.
What transmission fluid you use? Toyota WS or Toyota CVT (sold in ebay)? I plan to do this on my 2015 Corolla LE which has CVT. Thanks
Buy fluid from the dealer online
Some Toyotas with an eCVT use the same WS fluid as the conventional automatic transmissions. Check your owner's manual.
Hello I have a 2007 Toyota camry hybrid with 150,000 miles should I change my transmission fluid?

Does this camry have a transmission fiter? If could you do a simple video in instillation? Thank you sir! Also very informative video!
I couldn't find one , they wouldn't sell one , its so large its labeld not servicable and last the life of the machine unless you damage the tranni
Maybe I missed it but at 104 degrees F do you drain to check fluid level with engine running or off? Thanks
running
Many things were left out of this video to do it properly to include the biggest one is your car needs to be level. Just jacked up in the front and your fluid amount will be way off. Started off strong with the great drawing of the overflow tube and correct fill temp but it all went downhill from there. "You add the new transmission fluid by removing the fluid level dipstick, and inserting a narrow-mouthed funnel into the dip stick tube." Uh, there isn't a dipstick or tube for that matter, it's a fill plug.
If I were to just want to add a quart would I just take off the bolt at the bottom and put the quart in? Low trans fluid
How often should the transmission fluid be changed for the 2012 camry ? The dealer service record don't exactly state when they change it
that's so you wont and the manufacture wants to sell the person who buys it used a new transmission .
2:18 would that be the same location for a 2011 Camry? Should I leave it alone since you said there’s been people that drove it for 300k miles without changing it? I want my car to last as long as possible and it currently have 130k bought it used at 88k and had the transmission flushed at 110k and I guess it still shifts fine. Makes a noise when I first start the car and it shifts from first gear to second. Any idea what it could be? Thanks.
not sure about the sound , probly just cold . you need to change the fluid , you may not be as lucky as some of the careless people in my stories .
If your door fell off your house would you change it or just leave the hinges flapping in the wind for another 280k ? 😂😂😂
NOBOX7 fixing a door is easier than maintaining an automatic transmission 🙃
What type of fluid are using? Genuine Toyota Fluid or Aftermarket fluid like Castrol or Valvoline Maxlife or etc.?
I'm using Aisin OWS which is the same as Toyota ATF-WS. Aisin makes the transmission. I think they can be trusted.
How often should you change the transmission fluid in a 2013 Camry hybrid ?
30K is a standerd maintenance interval
NOBOX7 .... K thanks
60k is more than reasonable. 30k is really short. pretty sure they recommend 120k from the dealer.
I use synthetic ATF instead so I go every 60k.
NOBOX7 I’ve never seen 30k interval recommended for any transmission service. I’ve seen 75k recommended at different shops and dealerships but never 30k. I’ve only had 1 service advisor tell me 30k miles and I asked him if he was stupid.
Where are you locate it and I have a question please I own a 2014 Camry and the Previous owner never change the transmission fluid if I do it now what happens
Hi, do you have a video on process for HYBRID Camry cars? I own a 2014 Camry hybrid Le.
Thank you😃👋
Your tips and measurements were very helpful-THANKS!!
good info, thanks. Think I'll just use my fluid pump to put in whatever I can suction out. My only concern would be dislodging a chunk of metal shavings off the magnet with the suction hose.
Thanks. You covered all my concerns and critical points.
Have a great day today.
Consider it done , topped of with a wonderful comment , glad to help friend .
excellent video, best one I've seen on this Camry, short and sweet. So it looks like I can change it cold but I have to replace the exact amount I took out. therefor I don't have to worry about having the correct temperature. Which is good news work around.
Glad here friend and yes you can just put back what came out however you should do this twice to flush the torque
converter , it alone contains 3 or 5 quarts of fluid .

I’ve heard a transmission flush is bad for the transmission. Have you flushed it? I asked for my 2011 Camry to be drained and filled but the shop I took it too insisted on flushing it.
A flush is not bad for the transmission unless the transmission has already started slipping. Flushing the transmission removes micro particles of metal from wear on the transmission due to hotrodding or wear and tear from not replacing fluid every 50,000 miles. Fluid should be flushed and replaced every 50,000 miles on any vehicle as well as changing the filter. I've seen well taken care of transmissions get to 500,000 miles or more.
why is the specification of the oíl? dex 3? atf ?

A lack of fluid in the torque converter will not allow the impeller and propellers to do their job. Among other things, your transmission might not have enough fluid. However, this should not be an issue if the system is sealed. Do you have any leaks?
Did you ever get this resolved?

Check your wheel alignment.
Can you just measure what you took out and put that back in without having to check the level.
Yes. That's why he put the old fluid in the plastic jug and you will want to mark where the old fluid tops. Pour the old into another container and put the new fluid in the container with the mark. That's the best way to get it close, being there is no dipstick.
