that was an excellent video and brought back the feeling of times spent with my Dad, he talked and acted a lot like you with his mannerisms, and taught me the importance of slow, careful work, and regular visual inspections, if you see a leak or a torn boot or any damage, tend to it right away don't wait for it to turn into a problem. He also taught me the most important thing was to 'listen' to the car for variations from its usual sounds, one of the fastest ways to diagnose a problem. One of the better instructional videos I've encountered. Thanks!
Of the numerous videos I looked at for my 2014 Camry, your video explains, in the best detail, about changing out the oil filter and doing the oil change. Thanks for taking the time to put your video on RUclips.
Truly appreciate you doing this. Showed it to the new driver in the family watching and pausing as we went around our car's engine to follow along. 👍👍👍👍
Very well done. Good detail, and there was enough light to actually see what you are talking about! Some other videos are too dark and the details are skipped over, so one wonders why they did the video in the first place!.
Great video, I just bought a 2016 Camry and what you have explained is similar. I just remove the oil filter as one piece rather than removing the drain plug but is still a messy exercise.
That green oil filter cap wrench looks like it's made for a 1.8 liter Corolla instead of a Camry. It should still work on a 2.5 liter Camry but if I'm right then the tabs on the oil filter cap won't engage with the teeth on the cap wrench. The way your cap wrench keeps slipping off indicates that I'm probably correct. If they do engage then ignore what I'm saying. It's my mistake.
I know this video is old now, but I'm still amazed at how clean your engine bay is for a 2 year old car. You must spend a lot of time on it. My daughter now owns a 2013 Toyota Camry and the exhaust manifold cover is all rusted and things look pretty dirty. I'm looking into replacing the cover (for $100!) but I have no idea why Toyota uses such inferior metals on a lot of their parts which they must know will badly rust in a short period of time and look horrible.
For future use the crush washer should be replaced everytime, sometimes if they’re not cracked they’re still only meant to be crushed once. You can have oil that leaks from the washer
I'm sorry I'm kind of curious but it's a question at the same time why your oil looks kind of red and my oil every time I change it it's dark why is that.
Great vid....hint too...is you can remove the filter case without having to undo the filter drain....you can take the filter casing off all in one....but would do it every other oil change just to check the little o ring...GREAT VID..
You can remove the filter case that way but it is not metal. It is like a fiber glass or had plastic. At Least on mine. I would be afraid of messing up the casing. Plus the oil would leak out all around the casing.. Like to good old days......

Sal 007 It might be the torque converter. U760e transmission is known to have a faulty torque converter. My 2013 Camry had a shudder and hesitation between gears 2nd-3rd. Took it to Toyota dealer, they diagnosed it as having a faulty torque converter and they replaced converter and updated ecu all for free. Look up the ZE5 extension warranty for Camry’s with U760e transmission.
We don't use the same type of Battery in Canada. The ones in Canada are heavy duty deep cycle batteries that are non serviceable (cant add water) due to the extreme cold weather winter starts.
So I have this same car, just the LE version. I had a weird problem finding an air filer that fit in the box. Advanced Auto looked it up and gave me the filter, and it was just slightly to thick. This made it so that I could not close the filter housing back down and clip those two back on. The rear one would not at all go on at all. Then went to autozone and tried one of theirs and same thing, though they had another that was just a hair thinner and the guy who worked there put it in with me and that just fell in and worked great. No idea why we had such a hard time. I also did my cabin air filter and that worked great the first time. Anyone else have that issue?
I went to O'Reilly's and asked for a cabin air filter. Cost too much but she didn't want to sell it to me anyway because she said I had a Camry SL according to the VIN lookup on the computer. It says SE on the back of the car. I went home and took the cabin filter out. It looked like a cheap piece of junk but it had a toyota part number on it. The photo of the filter on amazon looked nothing like the filter I have. Don't know why this is so hard.
Did I hear you say to take your torque wrench and snug up the oil filter drainplug? And then you put a ratchet on it and tightened it with a hammer? (At least it looked like a ratchet.)1. A ratchet is not a torque wrench. 2. You would never beat on a torque wrench with a hammer. 3. There is only suppose to be 10 ft lbs of torque on the oil filter drainplug. The oil filter cap/housing only calls for 18 ft lbs of torque.
Keep the oil changed and use synthetic oil and that engine will run forever, always use the recommended weight 0w20 or what is printed on the fill cap. I would never go 10000 miles like Toyota tells you.
Yeah I just went to the dealer today and they tried telling me not to replace yet. At first I thought they meant because I was 100 miles early to the sticker. But then the guy told me to do it every 10k. I told him I was doing it anyway. I could feel even at 5k the engine and trans were running rougher than they ought to be. After change the hard shift in cold weather is gone. Couldnt imagine having waited twice that. Funny thing is the sticker they slapped on the window after said to come back in another 5k.
I do a drain the pan. measure and refill every 50,000 miles. I measure it and put the same amount back in. Use the fluid made for the car. Their is no dip stick.
Do the transmission fluid change. I did it recently on a 2011 Camry. It is not fun! Engineers are trying to make it too difficult. I used a bidirectional scanner to determine fluid temperature. Car rolls much easier and I can feel the transmissions ease. I could feel the gears and what felt like metal friction before. Improved my gas mileage to about 4 miles per gallon.
I have not done that change yet. I hear it goes my temperature. No dip stick... I think if I did it. I would measure what came out and put the same back in. That would be a good start. Then do the temperature drain. Have a great day...
Every car has a jack point in front middle to raise the entire front. Then place jack stands on both sides and lower the jack. I usually keep jack in place with little car weight on it for added safety although it's not necessary.
Yeah they are. most common reason is that the smaller drain plug has been screwed back on fairly tight. It happens sometime when I first change oil on someone Toyota. No big deal. When it happens it just mean I'll be taking off the filter housing first and not drain the remaining oil from The filter
You do not need to remove the center drain. But i would remove it once and awhile because it has a rubber seal. Which can go bad. After all their is one in the kit. Thanks
Hey buddy thanks for the video. Just wondering in your mpg gauge. How in the heck did you get the mpg to like 35-40?? Hahahah thanks for the video again
I am considering buying one of these cars and found your video about the oil change. It's a good thing I did! This would be really tough to figure out. Thanks for posting it! Do you need the special filter housing wrench with the prongs on each side, or would a standard one work?
I pick mine up off amazon. Didn't cost too much. The housing is like a fiberglass. I wouldn't put a wrench around it. This is the one i got. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IZNZOYQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1. Have a great day
The only surprise I have had with this car was I was on a trip in N.C. And got to were I was going. The next morning the battery was dead, It was 4 years old. Thought I was at least going to get a warning. Slow crank ect. But I didn't other than that it has been good. About 33 mpg.
@@richardhinson7126 sorry to hear about that good to know though! Wondering was it the terminals or bad connection to the battery? I saw the manual has it to change the terminals thought that was odd at 50,000 miles.
So far it has a been great car. Only thing I did not like . I was on vacation and the battery just went dead when I tryed to start it. Usually I thought you would start getting slow cranks. But they say this is the trend now. They just die.
Judging by the way your oil filter wrench appears to not have a firm grip on the oil filter cap, it appears that you either are using the wrong wrench or your wrench isn't properly engaged to the oil filter cap. The teeth must be engaged to the tabs on the filter and it's a common problem to see that detail not being followed. At position 5:36 & 10:27 of your video I can see that you have the wrong wrench. The teeth on your wrench don't even reach the tabs on the oil filter cap because the bottom part of your cap wrench isn't wide enough. The one you are using only fits the 1.8 and 1.3 liter Toyota made engines such as found in a Prius, Corolla, Matrix etc. All other Toyotas take a larger wrench that fits larger 4 cylinder vehicles as well as 6 & 8 cylinder vehicles. Sometimes the vendors that sell these wrenches don't even know. They assume that one wrench fits all four cylinder engines. Motivx has it right. See both of their wrenches at www.amazon.com/Motivx-Tools-Filter-Wrench-Vehicles/dp/B078RHZP9M/ref=sr_1_11?dchild=1&keywords=motivx&qid=1588594835&sr=8-11 You need this one... www.amazon.com/Motivx-Tools-Toyota-Filter-Engines/dp/B00XTAGHU0/ref=psdc_15708821_t1_B078RHZP9M Also, how much torque did you put on that drain bolt on the oil filter cap? It's only suppose to be 9 ft.lbs. and the oil filter cap itself should be only 18 ft.lbs.
Picked it up off amazon. depends on the drive you have. www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Torque+Wrench. Thank you and good luck.
It is a pain in the ass, but you don't have to do the plastic drain straw thing. Just take the whole filter housing off to simplify things. The worst part IMO is that filter housing adapter, they slip if you're not under it just right.
Yeah, I was pretty shocked to find out that my Camry, unlike most cars built after 1950, did not have a standard spin-on oil filter. I assume they use this design to discourage DIY oil changes. Its not a huge deal, but it does have an extra gasket which means one more opportunity to have an oil leak.
Good DIY = do it yourself video, but you left out the cabin filter replcement. People who smoke or have allergies should make it a point to replace the cabin filters every 30,000 miles.
Thank You for bring that up. Yes it is behind the glove box. Drop your glove box down. If you look to the left and a little up about 10 O'Clock you will see a long bar type of plastic, Just press in the two side clips and slide it out. Pull out the old filter. Install the new one. And clip the cover back on. . Put your glove box back in place. Have a great day

glad I came across your video, had no idea Toyota engineers had reverted back to 1950's designed oil filters.
Yea I guess that was a way to help the environment. No metal case. Thanks for the comment.
Awesome job done and very detailed explanation! Feel sorry no one can hold the camera for you.
Thank you. My first one. Thought I would give it a try. Have a great

The plastic adapter is awesome. It pushes the filter up and let's the excess oil drain out leaving little mess.

Warms my heart. Makes it so worth the time and editing. Thank you for telling me. Bless you.

ricksapple hello so every how many thousand miles do you switch off the oil after 10,000 miles or 5,000? full synthetic or regular synthetic 0-20?

how do you jack the car from the front?

What poundage setting for torque wrench?

Yea that would be a nice addition. Thanks

To much talk
Toyota came up with a stupid new oil filter designed. Very stupid
