Toyota Camry V6 3MZ-FE Timing Belt, Water Pump, Seals & Pulleys Replacement
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 мар 2019
- This video will show you step-by-step on how to replace the timing belt, water pump, idler pulley, tension pulley, camshaft seals and crankshaft seal on a 2006 Toyota Camry with the 3MZFE engine. I used an OEM water pump made by Aisin, GMB bearings and a Bando Timing Belt. The replacement procedure is similar to a video I had previously made on a 2006 Sienna with a 3MZFE engine with a few minor differences but essentially the same. This engine is also used on the Lexus ES330 and RX330; the 330 meaning 3.3 liter. On the Camry, the engine does not require tilting up to remove the torque rod mount off the engine ... that is, there's enough room for the mount to clear the mounting studs.

Almost 2 years later and still helping people with this video. Excellent work both on the car and the video editing!
Much appreciated!
@@hardlymovingpro
Yes, thank you!! Very helpful 👍
Exquisite clarity, what great camera work.
Thanks ... appreciate your comment.
Incredible. I feel like Luke being taught by Yoda. Thank you for all these master class methods!
You bet!
This is how all "how to" videos should be..Great work!
Really appreciate your comment and thanks for your support!
YES!!!! you are correct I agree!!
BEST guide I've seen so far. Great JOB
Glad you liked it!
THANK YOU!! Just recently got a 2000 Camry with the same motor and I couldn’t find anything on how to replace the timing belt! You video helped a lot and I got it done easily!!
Glad it helped!
After watching your whole video, everything else I've seen to fix my Camry seems to be simpler. This is some tedious job.
Well done.
Thanks for your post and comment. If doing this job for the first time, yes ... it does appear to be a tedious ... which may explain why repair shops will give you big $$$'s estimates. I've done it so many times on this engine by using electric impact tools and specialty tools that I can complete the job in under 4 hours. Fortunately, it only needs to be performed every 100k miles.

That is such a well made video I referred back to it like 4 times, I just finished my project (water pump) and all turned out great, thanks too you! I had to call a mobile tire repair guy w\ a 3\4 impact though for main pulley bolt..
Hey glad it worked out for you! That pulley bolt can be a show stopper. Only thing that works to get it off is a high mass impact socket.
I’ve done this before, but still getting a refresher from your video... great advice on relieving slack on the belt to get it in place... that was a huge struggle the first time!
Glad it worked out for you. Surprised how people don't consider moving either the cam or crank towards each other to ease installation of the timing belt.
Just got done with my 05 Camry. I was seriously considering taking it to the shop but did it in my garage. You saved me some cash and for that I say Thank You. Your video is excellent and right on point. Good job my friend. Couldn't have done it without your video.
Good for you and thanks for sharing!
WONDERFUL!!! Just did everything and your video is clear and very to the point! This is what makes youtube wonderful!
Thanks for your post and glad it worked out for you!
Very well shot, explained, and executed. I'm a fan! Learned a lot.
HMP, Great best video and detailed instructions I have seen! unlike others watching for me this convinced me to take it to the experts like you. I did watch the whole thing because it was so entertaining and not boring watching too much talk and time taking off a simple bolt. Edited perfect and fun to watch your videos during the pandemic. Cheers!
Awesome, thank you! Glad you liked it!
Great job on showing in detail how to put the timing belt on. I was having trouble with it. Wish I could give 1000 thumbs up.
Thanks!
Such precision work! Phenominal job with the step by step detail and instructions!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Outstanding video, one of the best how to video's I've seen. Love the way you used pointers to point out specific things that need to be looked at.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for sharing!
You make it look easy. Great tips and advice too! Well done!
Thank you! Cheers!
By far the best video explaining every step to do a complete timing belt change on the 3MZ-FE engine. Got the screen of my tablet all smeared with oily fingerprints stopping and starting this video. Recently purchased a 2008 Solara convertible and plan to keep it going for a really long time. Not knowing if the belt had been changed and at 128,000 miles it was beyond time so I bought an Aisin kit plus the cam and crank seals along with the correct Toyota antifreeze. Save yourself the possible frustration of getting started and then dead in the water.... buy a high mass socket to get the crank bolt off. Just for confirmation this was a worthwhile purchase, I tried a regular impact socket and it wouldn't budge the bolt. The high mass socket made the difference. Also, that seal puller is a worthwhile investment.
Good story and thanks for sharing!
Thanks a bunch. I have a 2006 Solara and your instructions worked perfectly. I would not have attempted it with out this video.
Glad it helped!
Perfect camera work!
Best vid I've seen on this engine. Not looking forward to doing the job myself, but it has to be done. After doing stuff like this you can see why so many mechanics leave the trade. Your hands get cut to pieces, even with gloves on, every day working on cars that the engineers didn't give much thought to the person repairing.
You're right! It's a tough occupation to make a living with so many makes and models out there!
Very well made video, good detail, I had a diagram for the timing Mark's when I was doing mine today but your method for linning up all the Mark's was very helpful, thank you
Nice work and glad the video helped!
Excellent video. Straight to my saved favs for future reference when the time comes for me to do this. Thanks for posting!
Good luck when you're ready!
Great video! The 3MZ-FE is a fantastic engine and very reliable
Thanks and you're right about the MZ-FE!
Nothing but admiration for your skill. This explains all !
Thanks and appreciate your post!
One of the best timing belt videos I've seen
Thanks ... Glad you like it!
Thanks for the video. Best I've seen on this procedure.
My pleasure and more videos to come!
Great video. The 22mm high mass socket made all the difference on the harmonic balancer bolt. I almost gave up before that.
Use to get worked up wondering if my impact driver could torque off the balancer bolt. Not anymore with that high mass socket!
That's a great tip on backing off the front cam and crank a bit while installing the belt. I watched your video as a refresher course - I'm getting ready to do my second timing belt job on this motor - the dealer did the first, so the engine is getting ready to be on its 4th belt!
4th belt change? ... wow! You must have over 300k miles on your car? Thanks for your comment and support!
@@hardlymovingpro Well, 4th belt in total... 3rd belt change. I'm at 279K miles. 1st belt was late, so 3rd belt service schedule would have been 270k since Toyota recommends 90k interval on these.
@@lsh3rd Or every 7 or 8 years I believe. I had recently replaced a belt on a 2008 Suzuki Forenza with only 32K miles. There were cranks throughout the entire belt and definitely needed replacement. Manufacturer's stated service interval was 60K miles or 8 years.
This is by far the best video ever , changing your timing belt . Can’t thank you enough !
Glad it helped and thanks for your post!
This is the BEST video on how to replace the RX 330's timing belt and water pump! Thank you kindly! I am a subscriber!
Glad you found the video useful!
BTW ... Just did a video on the hybrid version of the RX with the same engine. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/ceAVbcE1C00/видео.html
Thanks for the info it's awsome. Got the sprocket tool from amozon. Got sprocket off. Most auto parts don't carry this tool. Thank you so much for making this video.
Good job and congratulations on getting the sprocket off! My pleasure making the video for guys like you who appreciate it!
Very nice clean job. I like that camshaft tool you use.
Thanks! Here another video I made on seal removal tools: ruclips.net/video/KUSIZs2b4Ck/видео.html
Great work I love how you take the slack out of the belt that's a good thing to know
Thanks 👍
Amazing video! Great work on the video itself and the workmanship on the repair!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Best timing belt change I've ever seen. I wish you could do mine :(
If you're around the Memphis area.
Superb video....fast enough to get the point with minimal waste of time. Excellent tips!
Glad you liked it!
This video makes me feel very confident in doing this job myself! Thanks! I'll be replacing the belt, seals and water pump. I'm noticing an oil leak coming from this area. Hopefully changing the seals will help with that...
The camshaft seals are a major source of oil leakage. When you take off the rear camshaft sprocket / timing belt dust cover, you'll better see if the valve cover gaskets are leaking at the corners as well.
Impeccable camera work. Clear as a bell. Thank you.
Thanks for your post and comment!
It's a Trac Phone
Listening to you while pulling those cam seals reminded me that I forgot to pick up a plunger at the Home Depot yesterday. Thanx !
Realize I grunt a lot.
I just wanted to replace the bottom pulley.. I couldn’t stop watching though. You’re a beast.
Thanks!
I concur Stewart Harrison! Best Video yet. Very thorough
Thanks for your comment and support!
Great work!!! Everything is great.
Thanks!
Best video step by step precision replacement & reinstalled, fantastic clear camera work best video on utube ......
Wow, thanks!
So much work! I have an appreciation for auto technician MORE than ever.
No too bad after you've done it a few times with the right tools.
Wow what a professional mechanic he made it look so easy. I need made done on my lexus ls430 2001.
Appreciate your comment! IS430 is a little bit more involved. Need to remove the radiator to get a impact tool to remove the crank shaft pulley bolt ... camshaft seals can only be replace by removing the camshaft ... and the seals do leak.
This is how a How To video should be done and it exactly the same engine, Thank so much! GOD Bless.
Thanks!
Great video bruh, step by step like it alot great work
Thanks for the visit!
Subscribed, best DIY vid so far! you should include 1mzfe in the title since its a more common engine with the same procedure.
Thanks for your comment. I do have a 1mzfe timing belt video but it's on the Lexus ES300.
Great video and mechanic works.
Thanks ... appreciate your critique!
Your editing is sooo good.
Thanks!
This video answered all of my questions.

Glad you liked it and thanks for your support 👌!
It is amazing how much work goes into this like taking it all off is a huge job but holy shit putting it all back together is impressive.
Thanks for your feedback on this video! Putting together a video series on rebuilding a 2.4L aluminum engine. A lot more involved than this but doable!
Thanks,good video.I just bought 2006 3.0 liters Camry.
Good car and engine
Good job, man
Thanks for the visit
Great work. Most shops charge over 1k to do this. Not many good vids such as this video for this engine.
One customer told me that his 2 local Toyota dealers quoted $1800
Very well done video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video. Thank you so much.
Glad you liked it!
Needed this, thank you
No problem 😊
Can you put a breaker bar on the crank and turn over the engine to remove the crank bolt?
Sorry for the late response. I use a electric high torque impact gun with a high mass impact socket ... always.
Is a genius!!☺
Thanks bro just finished my 07 highlander.
Good for you and thanks for sharing!
Great video up to the point of reusing timing belt tensioner. Everyone get a new tensioner not worth the risk.good vid
Very true but I've been noticing that Honda's V6 tensioners tend to leak and loosen up.
Great video, thanks!!!
You bet!
Superb job A +
Many thanks!
That was great- Hands down!!!!!!!!
Thanks for your comment and support!
You do good work.
Thanks!
Very, very good. Congrats for job.
Thank you very much!
The best I’ve seen
Thanks!
Awesome video bro it work perfect……very informational VERY!!!!!! I follow u bro keep’ em coming brother!!!!!!!!!
Thanks and check out my latest engine replacement video!
شغل مرتب وجميل جدآ والعده مكتمله شكرآ على مجهوداتك الرائعه ❤
شكرا لانتقاداتك!
That solid socket from Lisle. It is a must buy. Even with 600 ft/lbs air impact no go on regular impact socket. Installed Lisle socket on my air impact - 5 seconds. Smoked it.
My sentiments exactly! You can even get away using a 300 lbs electric impact. The Honda 19 mm crank pulley bolt is also a rear bear. No problem with the high mass impact socket!
Thanks so much for this video. It was intelligent and very well versed. The part of offsetting the sprockets to ease belt installation was perhaps the most helpful of all.
Thanks for your post and great news that you did it yourself!
Excellent!!
Thanks!
@@hardlymovingpro I run a car charity and work on all kinds of cars that I don't know anything about. Window regulator on a Saturn? RUclips Baby! How hard is it to do a Toyota V6 cam belt? There it is! Stay Safe and Thanks again.
Thank you for this excellent information. Excellent video.
You bet!
You are amazing!🙏✌️
Thank you 🙌
Thanks you make clear about the mark for timing belt
Glad it helped
Isn’t a easy job, thanks for share this with us 👍🏽
It can be time consuming without the right tools.
Excellent good job 🙏🙏🌹👋👋
Thanks for your comment and support!
Also I saw a super neat trick from the car care nut on removing that mounting bracket that sticks on the corroded alignment pin. Hit it on the underside of the top northeast corner. 3 smacks from a small carpenters hammer had it off in a jiffy
Good to know and thanks for sharing!

I think you are the best
Thanks!
God this brought me back... to work. LOL i used to work at toyota and damn if i didnt do these fuckers on the 1mz and 3mz in my sleep. No idea how i got to this video but after about 30 seconds i was in the zone. Im really happy to report nothing you did made me feel like i could do it better hahaha. The one thing ive ever done differently in my days was when i ever reused a tensioner rather than use a vise i used an irwin quick grip saved a bit of time and easy (used this thing for brakes all day too. Great video, good lighting, great angles. This is where its at man good job.
Thanks! Most kits now come with a new tensioner. On the older tensioners on the 1mz, I compressed it right on the engine using those long 10mm mounting bolts.
good video. Thanks it looks like you have AISIN set
Yes ... from my past experience, I only used Aisin water pumps on these engines. Other pumps will not last up to 100,000 miles. They generally leak, the bearings wear out, make noise or the shaft may seize.
Exquisite demonstration made the job easier and inform me of what tools I would need to acquire to accomplish the task For my friend
Took 7 stores to finally get the chain wrench it was If Vicescript style you Showed The other 6 stores only had the rubber style of strap wrench A cheap cheesy rubber thing that Might work for an oil filter
Good for you that you did it yourself! The big chain strap wrench are commonly used by plumbers.
