Fantastic video! I have a 2020 Camry (bought new) with the same engine. The car has just under 21,000 miles but in Feb. I will have owned the car for 5 years. Your procedure exactly matches that from Car Care Nut. I wanted to see another video to make sure the procedure matches. I had some doubts regarding "turning off the AC, heater, and fan, everything." I come from the "old school" where you turn the heater on. I'm going to check the cost to use Toyota coolant and will compare the cost of Peak that you used. Thanks for the video.
@@ricoflorez7129 its easy as long as you don’t do same mistake like I did. Make sure to attach small hose to the side of the drain and drain the fluid. Also when you fill the coolant NO ac or Heat on, keep RPM above 1500-2000
Love your videos. Very informative! I have a 2019 Toyota rav xle with around 67 k miles.. Does your rav have a gurgling noise through ac vent in the cabin when ac is on ?! Especially on low setting. When I turn off ac the sound stops. I was told there’s no leaks and coolant level is normal?! It’s just really an annoying sound? Any tips to resolve this issue?!
@@vinarch75 there is a way, but you need a scan gauge tool that can activate that service mode so this is the easiest way to do it like I show you in the video
@@hectorpenamedina4817 buy 2 but you will not need two, about 1.5 bottles. After 15k do it again drain and fill. Most important thing to have heat off and ac off and keep 2000rpm
How would you correctly bleed the air out of the coolant if you did not discconect the egr valve and let the fan turn on and off 2 times but did it like your old toyota venza ways 😅?
@@erich9779 you are wrong. This is different engine with electronic water pump which is controlled by a computer. Yes on older engines you have to turn up heater but NOT on this engine.
I hope you answer a question I have with my 2020 Camry 2.5 Dynamic Force engine. The engine has just under 21,000 miles. I bought the Phoenix Systems 8006-B Double Ended Coolant + Brake Fluid Test Strips. Both the coolant and brake fluid tested to be in excellent condition according to the strips. Do you recommend changing both fluids since the car will be 5 years old in February? Have you tried these strips? They are highly rated.
@@sunking2001 i never tried these strips on the brake fluid or coolant. If the car has such low mileage i would not bother changing coolant also if break fluid looks clear and you don’t have soft brake pedal, than leave it.
@@nazarettos6987 Thanks for responding. I have heard both fluids will need to be changed because of the passage of time. Apparently, the brake fluid could absorb moisture, and the coolant can degrade on its own. I think I'll keep an eye out with these strips instead of spending money unnecessarily.
Just usenoriginal toyita coolant. Better for the seals and bearing of water pump and thermostat. About same price also u kess u kive far from toyota dealership
@@miq5000 don’t need to flush it. Just change again in next oil change. Also, it’s very important to disconnect that hose and get the air out of the system just like I did at the beginning of the video.
Honestly I'm not sure why you went to such trouble filling it this way. There's a coolant reservoir there precisely to provide more coolant when the system needs it. Why not fill it up initially and then top up?
How many bottles of coolant did you need to replace all of it in the car ? Is it true that you should replace coolant every 30k ? So if you have a scanning tool it makes it easier to replace coolant ?
I do not have special scan tool,but you dont need it. If you drain and fill like I did it in my video. Make sure to disconnect EGR valve hose and get rid of air from the system as well make sure to keep RPM 2000. regarding coolant, 1.3 bottles. and yes it is true about 30,000 miles
my only concern is that you did not drain all of the old coolant out of the engine block itself , being on ramps you only got what was in the radiator . most engines have a plug that can be removed on the side of the engine block to fully drain the coolant. total capacity is 7.3quarts . how much coolant did you use in this video ?
@@J_bui some coolant still remains in the system, when you do it second time next oil change you will flush it completely. Very important when you do it make sure rpm stay close yo 2000 and heater off, ac off.

@@averagemaintenance3875 thank you for positive comments.
Why is it important to have the heating / cooling off? Thanks . Great video.

Is this going to be the same with the Tundra? Is the AC/heat off when starting the engine?
Hector from Puerto Rico. Good job. How many coolant need to refill the system? Thank for your response.🙏

When you start seeing coolant coming out out of that disconnected house from the EGR valve, that’s how you get the air out
@@duyenchau8167 i did disconnect EGR valve
@@duyenchau8167 did exactly like carcarenut on his RUclips channel. Everything works fine, car runs great and no issues.
Nice info
@@haroldsityar9840 also carcarenut channel has good video on this
Youre not suppose to remove the EGR. You are also suppose to turn on the heat to make it heat faster.

Should have used service mode 2 for bleeding air and holding rpm at 2500 without a snow brush lol
Hey it worked 😃
Do we need to flush the system at all with distilled water or would this kind of coolant change be sufficient for maintenance and long term care?
@@J_bui just do what I did and thats it, and second time do it after few hundred mikes or 1000miles.
