Great video. Very thorough and detailed with great footage to illustrate. Appreciate the content and subscribed.
Thanks for the sub!
Hey, recently discovered you. Love the videos, keep them coming!
Thank you, will do!
Henry Royce of Rolls Royce said a skilled mechanic is better than any torque wrench. I agree and have almost never used one. After well over 60 years the feel acquired for nut/ bolt tightening is second nature.
I really appreciated the slow and thorough description here, especially the diagram showing the overflow arrangement.
Very valuable video. Thanks.
Great point!
Great video. Please keep it up. There are a lot of car DIY videos with conflicting information. But we can trust a Toyota Master Tech ❤ love to see some Lexus CT content as I just got one. Keep up the channel 🎉
Thanks, will do!
Thanks, have to change mine soon This vid will help
15:18 - love that high quality Lexus steering wheel. You should see my high quality dash and door panels. Marketing is a wonderful thing for the money makers.
Thanks for this video. Very well done. I have the exact same car. Cheers!
😂 you should see my dash and door panels in my 08 is350, all melted and coming off piece by piece everytime your nail snags it... and it's been changed by lexus 2 times and still melted by the heat from the sun.
@@hwnboi11 That's crazy. When was the last time it was changed? I guess they're not fixing the problem. Probably some supplier in China cranking out junk.
Great video. Made things super simple and straight to the point. Should I also replace the transmission filter as well?
Very informative video.
Thank you.
great video. wish i found this earlier but more or less i followed the same exact process yesterday. i noticed though that there’s a rattle noise towards the end of higher rpms (2015 350) only when driving (not in park). i’m wondering if it’s a heat shield that got bent when i was squeezing a socket on the fill plug?
Hey, it's possible.
Hi, how crucial is the car leveling? i have level gauge, but don't have a lift to get car level would the level gauge be sufficient?
It needs to be leveled. Otherwise, the fluid adjustment level will be off, and the measurement will be inaccurate.
How often should one replace the transmission fluid? Or transfer case fluid?
I have a 2022 Lexus IS 350 AWD 6spd.
Previously, I had a 2019 Camry, and I did the transmission fluid change at 60k.
Toyota says they are "lifetime" fluid, and you are not required to change it, but to have it "inspected." On my Rc350, i plan on doing it at 100k
Where i live its like 110F outside, how should i do this? At night or early morning?
At night, if you can see, or later in the afternoon.
Question, i was looking to buy a scantool to check the transmission temp but they are so expensive, but i noticed in video you didn't check any temperature with any device, how do I do that without any device so i dont have to spend $$$.....i kept watching the video over and over but i missed the part where u checked the level without any device telling the trans temperature recommendation?
You are correct. You do need a scan tool to tell the temp. Without a scan tool, you can adjust fluid level after 2-3 mins of running
@TheYotaChannel thanks for your help and thanks for posting video.
Dumb question here. When you say a garden pump… you mean just like a bucket with a hose attached to it and a hand pump? Would the hose even fit in the plug hole?
Yes, any hand pumps or transfer pumps will do. Just make sure it's nice and clean. As far as the hose size, 1/2 inch should work
Im doing the fluid exchange right now, 4QTS would be fine?
I would get 6QTS just in case
Lexus taken care of by a guy that thinks he’s his own torque wrench….
You’d think any transmission job would worth the torque wrench.
If you need a torque wrench for a drain and fill plug because you fear overtightening or leaving it loose, then i wouldn't recommend trying this yourself.
