You lost me at the Vise Grip. Exiting video.
Now do you only put the same amount of transmission fluid that you drained out
And he doesn't even know how to use the vise grip, it's backwards. Wrong transmission fluid, wrong way to check the fluid.
6mm hex key for the drain not a vice grip torque is 29 ft\lbs, filler bolt is 24mm torque is 36 ft\lbs
If you changed the filter how much you charge for the customer
I used Vice grips on mine when removing the drain bolt, because the bolt was stripped from the previous service at the dealership.
Good vid thanks for posting. This provides the basics and all the comments will help me dial in my mechanics to near perfection. I have a BMW x5 diesel so the RAV4 will be easy. For my DIY tranny fluid changes I made up a pump system by using a “new” 3-gallon gas can, a 12v pump that I purchased from Amazon, the 😊pump is tie-wrapped to the gas can handle, wire leads long enough to reach the battery, big alligator clips for the battery connection, and a momentary on push button at the gas can. Then I have a 3/8” hose that goes from the pump to the gas can, and from the pump to the tyranny. This allows for better precision with the touch of a button while filling the tranny within minuets. The gas can will hold up to 12-quarts of tranny fluid so I typically fill it for what I need depending on the vehicles specs, or what came out when I drained the tranny. When I’m done I drain the unused clean tranny fluid back into a quart bottle for later use. Be sure to drain the gas can when you’re done so you don’t cross contaminate fluids for the next tranny job. ✌️(Victory)
Why was the plastic hex not removed? The filter wasn't changed either.
Probably the worst way to change the transmission fluid on a 2017 RAV4. Owner will be very lucky if their car works properly after this.
That is not the way to service that transmission the level check must be done correctly or severe damage can be done also that fluid they used is wrong I know it says it's compatible but only one Toyota WS transmission fluid should be used why risk it trying to save a few bucks to check the level the transmission must be within a specified temperature range to check and that six speed transmission is very sensitive to fluid level after checking a test drive to check for whining if any is present the level need to be rechecked to prevent damage
From 2016 and up all the transmission fluid in Toyota cars you can not change the fluid the is better by the fluid from the dealership
It is not that complicated. A scan tool to monitor the trans temp and watching the drip of the drain is required. But it can be done. Yes WS (World Standard) fluid, but after 18 years of this fluid being on the market, there are other fluids thay meet the Toyota spec out there. It is just a very low viscosity fluid with a proper add pack. Toyota regular auto transmissons have an extremely low failure rate. The only issues were related to the torque covertors which is not fixed by even geniune Toyota WS fluid. It was a design defect from 2013 to 2015 Toyota vehicles with this trans. After those years had no issues And there were recalls.to handle it.
My thoughts exactly. Dropping the stand pipe would have drained out about another 1.7 quarts. A few more required if the torque convertor was flushed. This guy is functioning like a non-trained backyard mechanic who doesn't know how to completely drain out the ATF pan? I wonder if he even knows how to check for proper ATF level at the stand pipe at the correct temperature? Does he know to use WS fluid which Toyota still recommends?
I own a 2022 RAV4 as well. I have done maintenance work for all my Toyota vehicles. I would not let this mechanic touch the heels of my dirty shoes
There is much easier way to do this. Drain through cooler return line, add through fill hole. Done. No mess.
Vice grips on a transmission drain plug? Like a surgeon using a steak knife to remove a tumor. I can't watch this.
After I saw this video ,,,I won’t bring my car to this shop for service , he used a vice grip to turn the plug instead of Allen wrench (correct tool) which is not hard to find.
Yes you can take it to your mechanic but don't take it to dealership because dealership you don't changing transmission fluid in a more
If you change your transmission fluid, you should do the transfer case oil and differential oil on AWD and 4WD.
Toyota uses metric tools. Do it right and remove the wheel
And the transmission also has an excess stand that was not even removed in this video. The majority of the old fluid was not drained.
If the person working on your car doesn't have the proper tools
to do the job, stay away from them. This is why you ask for
referrals and talk to people who have had work done there before going there.
Every car is different and I'm all charged the same job like a dealership or other mechanic is only one $150 for service
If you take the car to the dealership the dealership we never got to change the fluid because the transmission is for life but if you broke the transmission is $5,000 to $6,000 replacement so you like the video or you don't like the video
And also we are not a shop specialist just for transmission where are the shop for Loop oil change and Auto Service Ultra freeze Flash power steering flush what transmission I am only the one on the shop whole do the transmission you want me to spend $20,000 just tools to make $1,000 a month if the sub specialist only transmission yes we have to get all the tools but we are not
When the customer
heard that loud noise
I am on the shop of course going to be nice
Not using correct tools or fluids. This is not the correct way. Use a 6 mm hex to remove the drain plug and internal dipstick to get more than 2 qts out on your drain. Use Toyota WS fluid
Unfortunately, Indy shop doesn't use factory parts or fluids. It will be too expensive for the customer and they have no room to make money off the parts and fluid. The fluid he used looks like Valvoline ATF which is equivalent as they noted on the back label. However, to not know what tool to take out the bolts is definitely something that makes him untrustworthy to work on the clients car. The client being there should know better to run.
WTF!!!!! Do you even know what you are doing?
U didnt check the transmission fluid temperature of 94 degree f-115 to measure the atf level.
By “special tools” this guy means a 10mm Allen key. Lol!
Is it hard to keep explaining everything when you speak three language is hard for me I speak French and English and Arabic
@@LessExpensivefix what’s that got to do with tools. It’s a basic tool. Using vice grips on a drain plug is dumb. If you need to be offended. Be offended. I only speak one language but I still have the proper tools for the job.
Good job!!!
Do you have part numbers for drain and fill plug as well as crush washers?
It’s a 10 mm hex not Toyota special tool. That’s wrong fluid. Should have use Toyota WS fluid.
If you know how to do what why are you coming to my channel to watch the video
Do you know why because there is nobody show how to change transmission fluid for this car
A hacker from the very start. LOL.
Thanks for sharing. How many quarters a 19 rav4 gets
This is not the way to do this.
Seal transmission the dealer doesn't change fluids anymore for these cars
@@LessExpensivefix False. If you pay a dealer for a service they offer, they will do it. You're giving people bad information that could damage their vehicle. For anyone thinking of tackling this job, there is more to the process. Do your own research and look at a few more videos. Doing it this way risks your transmissions life.
Only remove 10mm bolt not the plastic one inside and add whatever fluid was removed.
29-30 LBS Torque Drain Plug
10MM allen wrench
6MM allen wrench (not removed)
15/16 wrench
X, oz. Trans Fluid
minus pump to install Thanks
When you cannot find the tools and you got a car and the shop I have no way to do just to make it a video like that
@@LessExpensivefix Ingenious to use vise grips!
Maybe you are mad because you are a mechanic and you know what's your customer know how to change the transmission fluid for this car
You charge customer almost $300 can the fluid cause you only $20 10 minutes of the job this why you are mad because I show all the game
Flush transmission is not recommended. A fluid and filter change is the way to go…
As a person who has seen the results of transmission flushes first hand. I 100% agree. Drop the pan, clean it out, clean off the magnet and change the filter. A flush forces all of the metal shavings to go throughout the entire transmission, lodge into areas and destroy your transmission.
@@avenqer So what you're saying is leave half the dirty oil in? Not me. I flush the transmission, transfer case and both front and rear differentials and transfer case every 60,000 miles on my Explorer. Never had a problem now at 211,000 miles. On my 2018 Rav-4 I'll continue doing that every 60,000 miles as well. : Engine oil changes on both vehicles are roughly every 5,000 miles, not 10,000. Cheaper to buy oil than parts and time to rebuild worn out components. What disappointed me with the Rav-4 is that the "ATF filter" is a strainer screen? I added two magnets to the transmission pan. I do my own work, but if anyone decides to get a transmission flush at one of those quicky lube places, then all bets are off. Those people don't know what they're doing...if they actually did anything.
Thanks. which fluid are you used for this and how many liters? thanks
I was going to DIY it, but no more.
Does the 2014 Toyota RAV4 have the same transmission? If so, is this the same process? The 2014 RAV4 doesn't have a transmission dip stick.
Yes your transmission is the same please subscribe to the channel to see more in Toyota
Why didn’t you drop the pan and clean it? Thanks
Because I charge the customer only $150 if I change the filter Charge $350 to $400 service
This is not how you service rav4 transmission!
The same process doesn't matter
Learn this process instead of coming to tell him what to do... Humble and learn that's all
Def not correct process
Vice grips? Is the claw hammer next? I dont know anything about carz, except vice grips are good sign youre at the wrong "mechanic"
U can use a 6mm hex for that first drain plug right?
Maybe just test
The Drain bolt is 6mm hex, I used a little heat because it was extremely tight, the Fill bolt is 24mm and also very tight.
@@mdhbmx1 thanks.
How often should the transmission fluid be changed on a 2018 rav4 automatic?
What's model is SE
@@LessExpensivefix I think the body type model is UT and the class is FS
You can use max life transmission fluid
The same fluid I use on the video
I change mine once a month. Some people might say that’s not enough but I had to get a second job selling toe nails just to afford the crush washers from Toyota, so I can’t afford to do it any more than this.
Good job.Congrats!
why does scottly kilmer say not to flush and just change the fluid?
Toyota dealership do not change the fluid for the new cars lifetime fluid butts if your transmission go bad you'll have to pay $5,000 for a new transmission
If he used improper tools after this video rest of the viewers use proper tools in your place simple is that ! Is Main concern not about tools it’s all about to replace the fluid
Yes it's not of the tools but is up the service from 2016 to 2023 Toyota dealership doesn't change fluid transmission anymore is transmission is for life if you have any problem with the transmission you have to change the whole transmission do you know a place in fluid or filter this is why I show this video how to change this fluid by yourself easy way and it's not up to the the tools is up to you and do it the right thing to keep your transmission drive until 200,000 miles or maybe more doing fluid at the time make you save headache and always the car drive with no problem with no issue half of the problem of the mechanical transmission issue no one wants a transmission issue on his car because transmission is so expensive to replace especially a Toyota can cause Bitcoin to $10,000 for just transmission thank you so much to watch my video please like share and subscribe like that we can show more tricks thank you so much
Very surprised u didn't drain thru cooler return line. How come mixing only 2 quarts of fluid with dirty fluid in the torque converter is flushing?
Yeah only two quarts of transmission fluid came from your car because it's CVT
mine 2016 dealer has charged $183.00 5 qrts oil drain and fill.
Your car has CVT fluid
Wrong again
@@chrishasiuk4302Get em!! 😂
Why is toyota service dept telling me my 2013 takes 7qts?
Doing a filter change as well.
Dealership on Waze says like that how the job is difficult how is more money
7qts is for flush. Procedure in video is drain and refill where more than 50% of old oil is still there in transmission but it is still an acceptable process as long you keep doing this annually.
First thing you do is just drain the fluid I'm much how much fluid they cam from the car if the car give you 3 quarts at the same thing if the car give you 2 quarts at the same thing of the car to give you a one course had the same thing again this is the process of drain and fill call to make sure just called your dinner ship I need to give you more information about your car
Hey you didn't take out the ted red measuring stick to see how much
I think you didn't do this the right just saying
Not an ideal fluid change. You use vice grips to remove the drain plug. You need the Allen head to get the threaded straw out of the drain plug. Since you didn’t do that you left most of the transmission fluid in the transmission pan. This poor owner standing there, doesn’t know what a poor service he’s getting….
Should be retitled how not to change your ATF in a RAV4
he pumped fresh fluid via fill plug when he got drain plug removed,,,same fluid that went in just came out,,,it is not even close to a flush or fluid replacement,,,,lol
Wrong procedure For servicing Toyota
15/16 at Japan car 🚘
Tipy toyota rav4 2018 candi?
For 2018 Toyota RAV4 transmission fluid service is better to call the dealership and ask what kind of fluid they go for your car because from 2016 and 2023 the fluid is for life is better to ask the dealership what kind of fluid can go for your car this is CVT or ATF if the floor is CVT by the float from the dealer is better because the fluids coming to a special additive like that your protects your transmission if it's ATF you can buy it from any store parts and replace the float by yourself with the process you see on the video it's easy process is not difficult and thank you for watching my video and love and support thank you so much
How many liters did you use.
Did you watch the video all the way

how to check transmission fluid toyota rav4 2019-2021.show please
You come not check the fluid because this is a sealed transmission and when do you want change the fluid by the fluid from the dealer with the VIN number
15/16 wrench is not metric which is what Toyota rav 4 bolts/nuts are, metric 😂
Yeh but a 24mm or a 15/16 (23.8mm) are so close either works in this case. Not very often but here yes
this guy does not have a clue 100 percent FAIL the trans will fail guaranteed
esa transmisión es CVT ?
You’re a butcher. Wrong tools. Re using washers.
hey . the gearbox is it cvt ?
If your car have CVT go by the fluid from the dealer
No. It is a regular auto trans. Thankfully.
No filter?
No filter
@@LessExpensivefix thank you!
Your welcome
Car should be start while checking the level
No dipstick is a Serial cannot check the fluid
@@LessExpensivefix we can check from bottom while engine is running and temperature below 45C
where is your shop?
There are many video’s on You Tube doing this Service. You should Watch some. Your Service Is not correct…… Jim
Everybody has his own technique when I make the video I would like to show people the easy way how to change your fluid by yourself I don't care about other shop because the complicates the job and like that you cannot do it by yourself so mean we have to take it to someone to service your transmission for the process or a did you spend only $20 and if you take it to the shop you spent $350 or maybe more
@@LessExpensivefix Did you ever think your way is wrong? You could be ruining the transmission? Jim
You didn't flush the torque convertor?
You supposed to use toyota cvt transmission oil and a regular transmission oil
If the car has CVT go to the dealer and by the fluid is better if it's ATF you can use aftermarket no problem I'm pleased if you like the video like share & subscribe thank you for watching my video

wrong way to service a RAV4 transmission…
Is this a transaxle?
What????
@@LessExpensivefix is the front diff housed inside the transmission? Some of them are. My 2018 AWD is
Front differential is separate from the transmission
You can go to AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts and ask them what kind of fluid you can use for your front differential

Nice , how much does this cost? From a smaller shop compared to a Toyota dealer?
From 2016 up dealership doesn't change the fluid for the transmission is parts of new game
@@LessExpensivefix so you don’t have to change it?
Is bad I change it every 60,000 miles the dealer a play game because if something wrong to your transmission is almost 5 to $6,000

That is not the right way .Where's the filter kit ? And there is no special to bro its just the hex man get a set
This definetely not the right way. Valvolive trans max transmission fluid is perfectly fine. (Valvoline recommends it) Toyota, transmission ws fluid is way too expensive. Also, the transmission pan has to be dropped and change the filter inside. You suppose to measure the new fluid and compare to the old fluid. You add half to 1 quart extra, warm up the car up to between 110 to 120 degrees fahrenheit, ( Get yourself a laser thermometer, they are cheap around $20) go through all the gears, then re-check the transmission fluid by taking off the bolt (Not the filler tube!
) make sure the fluid pours into a trickle, put the bolt and new washer, then drive the car to make sure there are no noises and leaks. You're done.
Danger zone!! stay away from this.
Nope...
Wrong. You should run the engine to circulate the new oil then flush it. Do it 3 to 4 times til oil comes out clean. Always measure how much comes out and put that amount back in. Tran oil change not recommended. Maybe after 100,000 miles.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 is not oil is fluid and for Toyota recommended at 60,000 miles if the car has more than 150,000 miles foll flush with can't destroy the transmission this why drain and fill is the best solution to keep your transmission safe this why I never destroy a transmission in my life I know why I'm doing and I charge really cheap $150 is not that expensive
If you think you're a smart take your car to Jiffy Lube it would destroy your transmission with full flash machine always the old school method is the best when you flush the transmission all the way do you have 50% transmission work good and you have 50% transmission drop dead learn study cars more than don't take like doctors they believe only and machines but they forgot who creates machine is human I study everyday with any new car I study with
I would remove this video! Wrong from start to finish!!
Why is it wrong for one?? I'm not being sarcastic I'm just really asking because here I am I have a 2020 RAV4 and I'm trying to look for the damn dipstick transmission fluid how can I check that
oh No brother... u made a big mistake in ya life. Listen! i am going to explain to you how to your transmission will last 4ever. If it is a sealed tranmission, DO NOT change ịt bc it will last up to 250k or more.. If you change it , you will introduce dirty stuffs into the tranmission and it will cause the tranmission to stop working properly. I guranteed you will have tranmission problem at 150k if u change it every 40-60k .. this is how u do it if it is a sealed tranmission... flush it at 100k at the dealership then DO NOT flush again..u can only flush once bc if u flush many times, it will break up sealed stuffs inside the transmission. If u do that, u will never have problem with tranmission until 300k .. if u listen to old school mechanic to change tranmission fluid every 40-60k on a SEALED tranmission, u will have problem with tranmission after 150k or less... do not listen old school mechanics, their mind is old school and they think every car needs to change it at 40-60k
I'm going to be honest I stopped watching the video after this guy used the locking pliers to pop the drain plug loose. That is a complete hack way to do that. If you can't get the proper tools to do certain jobs then don't. Do better and get the correct tools for the job. I ordered the 6mm hex bit on Amazon for like 4 bucks so either he's just cheap or flat out ignorant.
So why you waste your time watch my video 🤪🤪
@@LessExpensivefix I didn't. 😂. Once I saw it, I commented and went on my way.
I just send you a comment to your video and your Channel
@@LessExpensivefix You should learn better English
This guy is a hack. Did he even bother to drop the trans pan and change the transmission filter? Rav 4 s have a transmission filter and it should be replaced if you are go to the trouble of changing the fluid! Plus, never trust a mechanic that has dirty oil all over his hands. Wear rubber gloves bro. 😂
Is not up to shop to change the filter is up to the customer if he want to pay more to change the filter and see your transmission for the new cars costing too much and the special order only from dealership so customer it doesn't want to pay more money because I have to buy the fluid from dealership and buy the filter from the dealership too to keep the car under warranty for the cost to do all this job rightly it's up to the customer if the customer want to pay more money and do everything be done properly but thank you don't know dealership he doesn't change the filter too he do drain and fail if you don't believe me call the dealership and ask them how much drain and fill transmission fluid and how much for change transmission filter and the oil service and see how much you got to be charging you almost between $500 to $600 service
Why is transmission fluid change so expensive?
Typically an automatic transmission fluid change cost is higher than a manual transmission. This is because the job may also require that your oil filter and pan gasket be replaced as well. The total cost for this service you can estimate to be anywhere from $300-$500.Jan 18, 2022
@@LessExpensivefix doing it right is cheaper than having to rebuild the transmission
What are you talking about I am not rebuild transmission if you say the name of my channel called last expensive fix what is mean I have to show people how the cheap way to change fluid to fix your car with low cost for if is European car yes I can tell you it's difficult but Japanese cars is not a difficult job just time and you can do it by yourself European cars you need fluid and parts from dealership and fluid about cause so expensive this why I don't recommend service your car by yourself from European cars
Good job.Congrats!
