As a 65 year old female who has never done this before, I found you as a blessing! THANK YOU!!!

Very nice video! I have a leaky water inlet pipe (technically I guess it's just one of the gaskets/o-rings that goes on the inlet pipe) and water pump. Can I get to that water inlet pipe when I remove the water pump or do I have to go through the process of removing the intake manifold and the heat exchanger?
@@billgentry7460 unfortunately, you have to remove the intake manifold and v-bank cover heat exchanger to get to that pipe.

@ I can’t even figure out how to release those two rear clips on the intake manifold!! What a ridiculous design. Two clips are keeping me from progressing right now. Any advice?
@ you could use a mechanic’s mirror to be able to see how to unclip them, otherwise you have to go by feel and that can be challenging if you don’t know exactly where the release tab is and which way to push it.
Hello..do you have a video how to replace and bleed brake fluid using a scanner for lexus nx300 or similar model? Thanks
@@user-qh5kt1ix5b unfortunately, not at this time. You only need a scanner to bleed the brakes on the hybrids like the NX300h. A regular NX300 can be bled like any other vehicle without using a scanner.

Hello, thanks for the video, I did the work of changing the electric steering column damper, when it came to putting everything together my Lexus tells me "check awd system" and "check afs system" I don't even have the bag light airbag or check engine but my controls and horn don't work, when I took off the steering wheel I opened the clock spring I tried to order it and put it on, do you think I have to order it accordingly or it just fails, thank you
@@felipeheerklotz I would start by scanning it for fault codes to see the area that the problem lies in. I am not sure what you mean by you opened the clock spring though. Did you physically take it apart for some reason? If you did, it was possibly damaged in the process and might need to be replaced.

Hi viktor, I was hoping you could advise. I did the transmission drain and fill but the plastic drain pan cracked and roughly 1/2 to 3/4 quart spilled on the floor. So I don’t know how much came out but put back 2 quarts. The overfill tube was stuck and couldn’t be removed. I don’t know what the level is and how concerned I should be. I don’t know how to check it and don’t know how serious being under or overfilled by up to a quart of fluid would be. I imagine the pan is separate from the rest of the system so if overfilled excess fluid wouldn’t drain out. Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi Viktor, does the satellite antenna plug in to the back of the head unit? My son was in an accident in my 2010 RX350, and now the satellite radio doesn’t work. (We have tried re-sending the signal a few times.) Everything else on the radio works, but you can’t even get to the satellite with the mode button on the steering wheel. Any insight as to what we should troubleshoot?
Hi, I doubt that the antenna wire would have popped out of the back of the radio receiver during an accident, but I guess it might be possible. Unfortunately, with these electrical issues, diagnosis can get pretty involved and is not something that I could assist with over the internet. It’s possible that something got damaged internally inside the receiver from the impact as well, it might be best to have a professional technician look at it to see what is going on.
@@Viktor_G_AutomotiveThank you! We’ll check with a dealership.
Hello Victor I saw one comment about trickle charger and I like the idea but I have question about connecting it, please tell me which option is better 1. Connect Trickle positive to + in fusebox and negative to metal 2. Connect Trickle positive to Battery + and negative to metal somewhere in cargo area 3. Connect Trickle positive to battery positive and trickle negative to battery negative 4. Same as 3rd but disconnect battery negative wire from car from vehicle also, Can a trickle charger damage something inside the car like DC-DC converter or anything? sorry for big comment, just want to learn from master tech whats the right thing to do. Appreciate your hard work, you are saving us lot of $$$$
@@navjotgill19 hi, any of the first 3 options will achieve the same result. Option 4 is not ideal as some memory settings will be lost if you leave the battery disconnected for a long time. The trickle charger won’t damage anything, just make sure you use a low current one (I’d say 5 amps or less is best), you don’t want to charge the battery at very high current.

There is a few bolts that DO go into water jacket threads… you do need thread locker!
@@rosielopez-j4e that is incorrect. I have the factory repair manual and have replaced dozens of these pumps while working as a technician at the dealership. None of the bolts go into the water jacket. Some bolts have silicone on them when you remove them that is remaining from the timing cover installation, but that’s just the excess that gets squeezed out when the cover is installed. No need for thread locker or silicone on any of the water pump bolts when replacing the pump.

@@ikusha84 hi, how long you have to wait will depend on what the fluid temperature was when you started the process. If it was at the correct temperature, you won’t have to wait at all, if it was at -20 degrees, you might have to wait half an hour or more. The hard shift could be caused by many things ranging from low fluid level to a software calibration issue to internal wear etc.
