Thanks for making this video man. I did take the front bumper cover off and it made everything a lot easier to get to. I didn't bleed it using the bleeder valve either. Just burped it manually like you did. Then added a bit of coolant to the over flow to accommodate the air that was pushed out over about a week of driving. Engine/coolant temp was never abnormal. Next time I will use the bleeder valve though.
Thanks for this very detailed video. I looked up the replacement procedure on a popular professional repair website and it was considerably more involved than your demonstration video. I replaced the radiator on a 2010 Camry V-6 engine using your method and it went fine. In my opinion , Toyota did a nice job with the design of the access to the hose clamps and fasteners for the radiator. No knuckle busting going on here... Thanks again for the tech advise.

THANK YOU for this! You are the ONLY video I found that removed that top radiator piece to pull stuff out from the top. I have a 2007 toyota Solara and it was impossible to remove the radiator fans or front engine mount because there was no room. Removing the piece you should I could put it out of the top.

I replaced the radiator last week.however the upper rubber boots didn’t fit exactly into the holes of the metal frame.i aligned the lower rubber boots into the lower frame but on the upper side it’s a little displaced to the side . What could be the issue.
No I secure the pipes so no transmission fluid was wasted. Maybe few drops here and there. Yes bleeding air is easy. I just ran the car with cap open for few minutes and kept pouring as bubbles were coming out. When bubbles stopped I topped off and closed.
You shouldn't lose too much atf fluid if any if you're careful. The transmission return line and pressure line do connect to the lower part of the radiator and yes the transmission is sealed. Every system with fluid is sealed or everything would leak.
Don’t forget V6 variants (2GRfe) has sealed trans fluid if you lose some trans fluid you got to refill it on driver side wheel there’s a bolt but tricky to refill use hose with pump.
thanks for video. Made same, but faced issue, that FAN is wider than space above it and it was hard to get it out and put it back. Had to make little cut in metal on one side to be able to put it back.
The method you provided is great and looks to be in quite detail. It will be better if you also provide the link for the radiator which you used and is compatible with with camry v6 2007 and where it can be purchased.
I’m currently low on coolant on my v6 Camry I bought the super tech prediluted 50/50 extended life antiFreeze/coolant ? I’m not sure if it’s the right one or is there a specific one I need to use so It won’t air lock
Isaacs 21 you need to check the coolant specs on your manual. If you are not sure then get genuine Toyota one. You don’t want to mix two different brands as formulas are different. Suggest check if you have pink coolant then make sure you use pink as pink is genuine Toyota.
Wish this video had popped up yesterday before I disconnected the air conditioning lines on the front of the radiator. He didn't mention bleeding the system, Vital part of finishing the job. If you don't you'll get air lock and blow a head gasket. Thanks for nothing You Tube...
@@HowToDoitright It wasn't mentioned to bleed the system at the bleeder valve. To complete that job after replacing the radiator air must be removed from the system or it can blow a head gasket.
AC lines don't connect to the radiator. They connect to the AC condenser which is attached to the radiator. Both are separate systems but are attached to each other giving the appearance of being one system. In other words, the only lines going in to the radiator are the transmission lines, you don't need to mess with the AC lines or condenser. Just unclip or detach it from the radiator.

@@HowToDoitright You are RIGHT - MY MISTEAK. FWIW, i chose to put the fan assembly on AFTER installing the NEW radiator. Also took off the horns, themselves, rather than disconnecting electrical connectors, but that's because I have a horrible history of breaking those connectors. Lol Thanks for en EXCELLENT vid - subbed
Nice video. I’ve watched 4 cylinder radiator replacement. It’s basically the same for v6. I have a 09 Camry.
Main difference is the 4 cylinder has much more space to do it. 😂
Thanks for making this video, you made it much easier than most of my jobs on this car LOL (big engine in a small space).

That year has a sealed transmission, so you can’t top off the oil if you lose too much. Unless you have an oil pump. Just an FYI
Helped me out a lot, thanks!
Thank you. Great work. Very clear and detailed to learn from you. Thanks maaaaaaan.

Did you have to add transmission fluid when you were done? And also did you have to bleed the air out of the coolant system when done?
No I secure the pipes so no transmission fluid was wasted. Maybe few drops here and there. Yes bleeding air is easy. I just ran the car with cap open for few minutes and kept pouring as bubbles were coming out. When bubbles stopped I topped off and closed.
Did you top off your transmission fluid? The vehicle is very sensitive to proper transmission fluid level.
na na no there were barely any transmission fluid that came out
I think the transmission is sealed on this model.
Thank you so much for this video, very helpful! None of the other videos did this with a V6 Camry.

You can refill using the dipstick place
@@HowToDoitright he's talking about the ones that are not to refillable, on those there is no dipstick.
@@The-F.R.E.E.-J. yup what he says ☝️☝️☝️
@@The-F.R.E.E.-J. Yup! Mine is a 2010 with NO dipstick!

I bought it from autozone local part store.
Good video.Spot on for the exact same upcoming work I need to do.👌👌
I got to change the ac compressor, I’m guessing this is the same process to get to it. ????
Yes and same for alternator
Very helpful thank you very very much!

How To Do It where do I get the pink coolant one from ?
Isaacs 21 Toyota dealership ..Genuine Toyota is pink.
How To Do It how much you think it is ?

@@pt7904 Yeah, I know that now. Found out the hard way tho, as a novice diy mechanic, I'll chalk it up to trial and error.
@@pt7904 I got it done tho, riding good, no issues with overheating, System just needs to be charged. Thanks for the advice...
You skipped the part where you fight the hose clamps for an hour.
I didn’t had to
I had to
Part number?
Google it. All vehicles are different
Just dont by the radiator online it may not match and its a nightmare. Get it from a place where you can quickly return and replace.
Good point
Are the transmission fluid sealed with this model ? Plan on doing it to the v6 to save me 700$ 🤣
No. It’s not sealed. It has a bolt on the side to fill it up
All you need is a pump with hose.
Homeboy saved me $400 bucks

Dealer will charge 500$
Wow
why didn’t you show how to take off the top cover of the radiator? i still can’t take mine off, worthless video
If you can’t take that off then you shouldn’t be attempting this job. Hire someone.
