Thank you man saved me $80 from the Toyota dealership
You are welcome! They charge way too much just to change something so simple.
Thank you for this simple but precise walk-through of how to replace this air filter
You're welcome.
just so you know i took my rav4 to the dealer for air conditioning not cooling and they suggested to replace my engine air filter for only 75.00 dollars soi ask how much was the filter by ifself he said about 22.00 dollars so needless to said they charge you 63.00 dollars for labor, so i purchase the filter right there and paid yeah 22.00 and replaced my self it took me i believe 2 MINUTES ONLY and SAVE 63.00 dollars what a rip off from toyota dealers ,,,,oh my good
The filter price is ok but wow it's an extra 53 dollars for them to put it in. Thanks for letting me know! Hopefully you can put it in yourself and save some money.
way easier than the 2019 onwards! Thank god I have a 2018 :D Great video. Will replace the filter tomorrow and save some $$$
You're welcome! I appreciate the comment! What's different with the 2019 and onwards?
@@SkyShadowMedia they moved the placement and made it harder to reach
ruclips.net/video/37qMcXMbFPo/видео.html&ab_channel=MorozovAutomotive
@@SkyShadowMediathe placement is different and it has many more clips and parts that need to be taken out. Not straight forward (at least to me)
I want to thank you for your video. Your video helped me find the correct filter and change it myself. You saved me money and I truly appreciate it. I have subscribed and will be checking out your other videos soon.
You are welcome. I'm glad it helped you and also save money too. Shops charge too much just to change a simple filter. I appreciate you Subscribing. If you need other help feel free to ask, I will try my best to help.
That's exactly what I needed to see. Thank you ! 😎
You are very welcome! Glad to help!
Thank you Toyota for making this so easy! My mom owns a 2017 Mitsubishi outlander and that thing is a nightmare to change. The way they have it oriented you have to pull push pins out and move things out of the way just to change a simple air filter.
Car manufacturers should make it easier to change a simple air filter.
Thank you for helping me out, I appreciate you.

Thank you for subscribing! I much appreciate that!
Thank you ver helpful
You're welcome!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks !
No problem!
I can see this applying to other cars since air filters are usually in those black boxes in the engine bay.
Yup it can, thanks for watching!
I just did this. I wish I saw this video first to see the Fram part number.
We're you able to get the right part? Hope everything went ok!
@@SkyShadowMedia Yes, I got it from Amazon after searching the part number. Thanks for asking!
Sorry should have mentioned in the video that there was an Amazon link to the part. But I'm glad you got it figured out! Have a great weekend!
Can you clean the inside of that compartment the air filter is in? Would that be safe and/or would it damage the filter itself?
Yea you can clean the inside of the airbox. I sometimes take a vacuum and suck out the rocks and debris that accumulate in there.
TY. 😀🙏✨Same for hybrid tho??
You're welcome. It's the same for the hybrid.
@@SkyShadowMedia thanks 😀
Is it normal to see part of the filter's orange gasket at the bottom corner of the engine box even when it is closed? That is what i can see and am not sure if i did something wrong... the corner i am referring to can be found at the @2:38 minute mark
Try to reposition the filter and move the top part of the box to make sure you don't see the orange gasket. I've had that problem that you mentioned before on other cars and I usually move the filter or box and then check if it closes easily. You want the box to close easy. Hope it helps, let me know if you have other questions.
Great information.. By the way, I've been having lots of problems trying to get the fuel consumption problem diagnosed correctly by the dealership where we bought our Toyota Rav4 2018 new. Our Miles per tank should be 300 (city), but it is down to 175 per tank. It only has 44,000 miles. The only thing the dealership says is, "The computer checks out". I asked them to check out other things, but all they say is, "We have our protocols and steps". Any ideas? Starting to look like a possible lemon. Thanks.
Thank you. So I did some research for you on your fuel economy. Is your Rav4 a Hybrid or a different trim? I read that some Rav4's had a fuel tank issue where it didn't fill up to the correct capacity. Another culprit of bad fuel economy could be a bad oxygen sensor. Those sensors seem to be a problem with many Toyotas. I believe you should still have the 6yr/60K mile warranty for the powertrain , so Toyota should diagnose and fix your car for you. Maybe take your car to another Toyota dealership since the first one gave you that kind of unhelpful response. This is my best guess right now for your issue. Please do let me know how it goes and hopefully it can be figured out.
@@SkyShadowMedia Thank you for the options. Our Rav4 is an LE. We took in the vehicle for an oil service and after that, its never been the same again. They weren't willing to check out any possible mistakes that might have been made during the oil change service. First time with a Toyota and unfortunately, it has been a disappointing experience.
Having same issue. 2018 Toyota Rav 4 XLE AWD. Only 23,000 miles and 3 years old. I'm getting like 205 miles to a fill up.
Wow didn't know there was this issue. Toyota should issue a recall to fix this.
@@SkyShadowMedia Wondering who should we contact to further inquire on this problem. At this point, Toyota should be very aware of this ongoing problem. Very frustrating.
Hi SSM, someone told me my 2017 Toyota Rav4 doesn't have a engine air intake air filter, is that true? Thnx!
All combustion engines should have an engine air filter. Check out your engine bay like in the video so you can see where the engine air filter is located. Thanks for asking!
How frequently do you have to change this?
About 12,000 miles or 1 year. It depends how much you drive and how dusty your area is. You have to change it sooner. I would say open and check it once in awhile to see how dirty it is. Sometimes I knock out debris and vacuum it a little when it's not time to change it.
👌🙏😎
You're welcome! 🙂
I installed an orange rimmed one similar to yours and the orange peaks out a little bit towards the end, that normal? Not where you clip it close but the opposite side.
Try to re-adjust the filter or the box and make sure the airbox is sealed and can clip closed easily. I've seen that before on other cars I've changed the air filter on. Sometimes the filter is not sitting in the box correctly.
I just changed mine and I see the same thing. The orange rim is visible towards the opposite side of the clips. Did you figure it out? I tried to reposition the filter but it’s still visible.
Are you able to close and lock the air box? If it sits flush, it should be fine.
Same issue here! But I’m able to clip down the two clips
@kelvinmac_lucky try to move the filter around so the box sits flush so that all the clips close. We don't want a gap for anything to get past the filter. I've ran into that before where clips didn't lock. Hope you get them to work!
Haha thanks
You're welcome
How much time it will need to change?.! Period
About 15 minutes.
Yum hai hum
Thanks for stopping by!
Is this a quality company like Toyota? I'm a little apprehensive
Fram is one of many brands for air filters but you may choose a Toyota air filter if you like or any other brand. Better to change a dirty filter for a new one! Thanks for watching!
@@SkyShadowMedia Thank you very much, I will buy from this brand this is the item number. fram ca10677 But what is the number of the air conditioner filter under the storage place?
Here's my video for the filter under the storage place. ruclips.net/video/zXiqs1NFPzE/видео.html
The number for that filter is CF10285.
Remember to like and subscribe! Thanks!
Ya know what the dealership charges? I'm not the federal govt.
I've heard from about $50?
For the Cabin Filter they charge 60 for a RAV4 2020. And for the engine filter they charge 28.
That is pricey! Thanks for the info!
owners manual says absolutely NOTHING about the air filter obviously know how to change it but want an OEM one. . . . like what??
Very interesting
They were trying to charge me 100 for this
Wow at the dealership? That's super expensive! Hope you were able to do it yourself.
How many miles do you change the filter?
From the service manual, it states you should replace your engine air filter & cabin air filter every 10,000 miles in extreme conditions & every 15,000 to 30,000 miles in usual driving conditions.
Same, they wanted to charge my wife 100 for engine air filter and 65 for cabin. Now I did it myself for just few bucks, the costs of filters
Wow that is a lot to charge and in reality it's not that hard to replace!
You need 3 hands
Yup that would be helpful 🙂
Need to clean up that engine bay (cough cough) ..
Lol true but this was somebody else's vehicle.
Fram is the worst brand you can use.
I see
it'll work just fine for a Rav4.
Yup, it's a matter of preference and budget
First time to change engine air filter, I used wix! It was suggested by O'reilly worker.
Wix is good too, everyone has their preferences. The owner of this car just wanted Fram so I changed it for her.
