I work at the dealership we don’t remove transmissions to work on water pumps and t stats we remove the driver side engine mounts and jack the engine up and get to it that way

You think that's bad. Toyota said the transmission fluid does not need to change for the life of the transmission (Whatever that means). I'm not buying that excuse Toyota
You do NOT need to drop engine/transaxle to replace waterpump on 2GR. Put it like this, Toyotas book time is roughly 2.5HRs to replace. Nor do you have to remove front end to replace alternator or A/C compressor. I work at a Toyota dealership and I need to correct these Misunderstandings lol. Unless you work for Toyota however, you would never know.
I'm definitely an 'import' automaker fan, but after watching all of your mechanical reviews, I'm curious as to what you drive?? Keep these videos coming, great refresher for things I learned in school as well as learning new things I didn't see!
On previous models, there is a way to replace water pump by removing the engine mount and slightly raising the engine and don't have to drop the whole assembly. Not sure if it is still applicable to newer models.
I really enjoy car videos, and I learn about cars from your videos, the easy way,in the comfort of my arm chair. Thanks again... Keep those videos coming

Another great mechanical review from you, a lot of people laughing at the soccer man aspect of the car yet some of them driving heavy duty off road trucks to Walmart….
My second car is 1994 4Runner. Always dreamt about such old school SUV. And suddenly, in last December, I saw an ad, selling red 4Runner with - drums! - 86k miles. First hand. Belonged to an old couple, husband died in October, so the widow decided to sell in because their son didn't want the car calling it old junk - he drives 2019 Merc GLE. Hahaha! So, I took my mechanic and we went to look at the car. It is in such great condition, that make people salivate. After my mechanic approved the condition she named the price - 18k bucks. I wanted to bargain but my mechanic said I won't find a car in such good condition as it never was modified, stock car, with 3.0l turbodiesel. So, we made a deal. And I landed an awesome, just awesome car.
Just watched the Bronco Sport Video and he made lot of complaints but it actually was much easier to service. This car is definitely not do it yourselfer
I thinks it is a good thing that the engine cover is sound deadening foam. The less noise the better IMO. My Forester is the same... and actually has additional sound deadening foam inserts around other parts of the engine bay.
I have a 2006 Highlander with over 250k. Made $60k in one year in that car doing Uber/Lyft in the snow and all my maintenance myself 😀👍 To keep the car running I changed driveshaft (bearing near the hot Cat failed), all 4 wheel bearing, 2x timing belts (to be safe), sway bushings, 1 Fdrive axle, 4 brakes and rotors, 8 tires, radiator and thermostat (because I never changed R-fluid😳), valve gasket (and clean out carbon deposit on valve which caused pinging), 3rd set of spark plugs. Use inly Valvoline or Amsoil XL. Transfer Case and Transmission. Amsoil, rear diff use Redline/modifer fluid (for better snow traction and reaction. No clunking that I had with Amsoil which too slipery) 😁👍 This New Highlander looks way harder to work on and my back won’t like it. Might do a new Bronco Diamond 4cyl w/ stick. Any suggestions?
Looks like they're listened to their dealer network. All the components that will last the life of the warranty - the suspension bushings, water pump, etc, require massive amounts of labour to service.
Your reviews are very good. I watch and listen like a poem. It's a pity that I wouldn't see your review about my toyota hb's engine 8nr-fts because of toyota doesn't sell in the US.
Hello I do a Toyota Highlander platinum 2022, I bought it on auction and trying to fix. I am having issue with radio no working, and having a cable conning from the fuse box that I don’t know where is connecting, I am sharing a photo of somebody can help with it. Thank you
Hi! Thank you for your detailed video on the Highlander. I have a question regarding my 2017 HL SE V6. I used to get 28.2 mpg on my highlander (99% highway driving). Since I changed the battery without memory save, my idle has been more rough and I’m getting a lot less mpg (25.5). I tried doing the idle relearn but it’s still not getting the mpgs I used to get. I heard that 2017 was when new engine for HL came out and Toyota didn’t initially set the computer piston valve firing correctly at first. Could I have reset the computer on my car that it lost some kind of correction to the firing? Thank you
Could you please make a video on what are the best new make/model vehicles to buy? I’m currently looking to get a new SUV and thinking about a 4Runner, grand Cherokee, Durango, or Highlander. I’d love to get your feedback on what’s out there and I trust your opinion over many other TH-camrs.
I wonder is a Toyota engine better than the Hyundai Palisades? Just trying to figure out if the Palisade is a good vehicle under the hood. Thank you for all your thorough videos. Impressive!!
hi, grat video, can you help me to identify what is the part that is located at the inferior right corner a 4:54, my highlander has also rust and is 1 1/2 year old., Do I have to take to to Toyota to service that part
HeaterCore: If you don't mind. In the future, could you please include the heater core access in your reviews. Some vehicles have easy access heater core and others you need to remove the entire interior dash to access it. How difficult is it to access the heater core on the current model Highlander?
Poor braking may be due to the pads not having enough time to bed-in. That typically takes ~500 km in normal city driving (without a bed-in procedure).
What's with the trend of placing the ECM under the hood, near the engine, under the wheel well or bumper? Cars used to have them under the glove box or in kick panel inside the cabin, where it stays cool and dry.
Any idea if the rear suspension setup is different on the hybrid model? If not, what's the best way to maintain it to avoid issues of replacing? I placed a deposit on the hybrid.
So a take away from this video is to drop the subframe if you want to change your oil. There should be a drop the subframe winded up wire just like the spare tire. Pull it like a chainsaw
So I have very little car knowledge- but does this issue apply to AWD and FWD? And is it with both gas and hybrids? I’m considering getting the 2021 Highlander Hybrid FWD.
I’d love to see you and Scotty Kilmer do a mashup video. You explain everything and Scotty gives some commentary on said engine.like compare Toyota engines vs say how dodge or Chevy makes their engines less reliable.
Sounds like it can be a pain for a diy owner. In your opinion what would you say are the better new SUV options for diy maintenance owners to last for years to come?
That control arm bolt has been like that for years. You can get it out it's a bitch then when changed out you fix it by putting the bolt in the RIGHT way
I hate the windshield. Highlanders seem to come with ADAS standard and the bracket is this giant chunk of plastic, including a thin, delicate vane that sticks out almost two inches. The wiper park heating element is connected by a strangely chunky cable. All a big pain for those in the distribution industry. Otherwise, it seems like a solid vehicle.
I agree because I like simple, rugged engineering, but just like everyone else in the industry, Toyota sees the death/mandated phase-out of these gasoline cars coming in the next 15 years. So they probably figure only a small amount will need that service before the end of their service lives. Most important thing I've learned from this guy's mechanical reviews are that manufacturers are designing toward quick retirement now, with the eventual replacement of the entire fleet with EVs planned within 2018+ vehicles' lifetimes.
I have 2 friends that have highlanders who have done most of the work on their cars in the past and hate this car because it always ends up costing an arm and leg when it needs to be serviced.
We have a 2003 Highlander with a V6. It runs great and does not need repairs. But, to have the required timing belt, water pump, etc., with new factory parts done, was about $900. But, it will be many more years until needed again. (That''s about 2 car payments for a new car today, right?)
Blessings 로마서 8 : 1-2 그러므로 이제 그리스도 예수 안에있는 육체를 따르지 않고 성령을 따라 행하는 자들에게는 정죄가 없습니다. 왜냐하면 그리스도 예수 안에있는 생명의 성령의 법이 나를 율법에서 해방 시켰기 때문입니다. 십자가에 못 박히신 이후로 그리스도께서는 어떤 의미에서 죽음과 죄를 근절하셨습니다. 십자가에서 죽어 가면서 우리는 그의 희생이 우리의 죄를 씻어 냄으로써 과거뿐만 아니라 미래에 대한 빚을 갚았다는 것을 배웠습니다. 부활 덕분에 죽음은 인간을 지배하지 못했지만, 내세까지 모든 하나님의 자녀는 예수님의 이름으로 기뻐하며 들어갈 수 있습니다. /기도 + 하나님 아버지, 당신과 당신의 아들에게 빚진 빚은 무겁습니다. 그분의 피로 우리 죄값을 치르 셨고 우리에게 구원의 소망을 주셨습니다. 당신의 말씀이 육신이되고 육신이 거룩하게 된 것을 우리에게 보여 주신 그리스도를 찬양하십시오. 내 믿음으로 나는 죽음을 두려워하지 않을 것입니다. 왜냐하면 그것은 나를 당신의 사랑과 은혜에 더 가까이 데려가는 역할을 할뿐입니다. 아멘.
Thanyou bit you haven't answered us yet .which one is best 7 passenger and what abt compare to Mazda CX-9 vs highlander which one would you choose for your self .
Probably a highlander or pilot for it's older engine tech and better towing capacity . I'd avoid the CX9 because of the turbo, but also it's got less towing capability.
New Toyotas have not been the same ever since the BMW partnership to produce the Supra. Although, I assume the reliability of plastics is better than Beemers as Toyota has kaizen cultural philosophy

Having to remove the transaxle assembly to replace a water pump or thermostat is 100% ridiculous.

로마서 8 : 1-2 그러므로 이제 그리스도 예수 안에있는 육체를 따르지 않고 성령을 따라 행하는 자들에게는 정죄가 없습니다. 왜냐하면 그리스도 예수 안에있는 생명의 성령의 법이 나를 율법에서 해방 시켰기 때문입니다. 십자가에 못 박히신 이후로 그리스도께서는 어떤 의미에서 죽음과 죄를 근절하셨습니다. 십자가에서 죽어 가면서 우리는 그의 희생이 우리의 죄를 씻어 냄으로써 과거뿐만 아니라 미래에 대한 빚을 갚았다는 것을 배웠습니다. 부활 덕분에 죽음은 인간을 지배하지 못했지만, 내세까지 모든 하나님의 자녀는 예수님의 이름으로 기뻐하며 들어갈 수 있습니다. /기도 + 하나님 아버지, 당신과 당신의 아들에게 빚진 빚은 무겁습니다. 그분의 피로 우리 죄값을 치르 셨고 우리에게 구원의 소망을 주셨습니다. 당신의 말씀이 육신이되고 육신이 거룩하게 된 것을 우리에게 보여 주신 그리스도를 찬양하십시오. 내 믿음으로 나는 죽음을 두려워하지 않을 것입니다. 왜냐하면 그것은 나를 당신의 사랑과 은혜에 더 가까이 데려가는 역할을 할뿐입니다. 아멘.
Thanyou bit you haven't answered us yet .which one is best 7 passenger and what abt compare to Mazda CX-9 vs highlander which one would you choose for your self .
Probably a highlander or pilot for it's older engine tech and better towing capacity . I'd avoid the CX9 because of the turbo, but also it's got less towing capability.
@@speedkar99 Thankyou.
Please do Land Cruiser next!
Nice! When are you going to review a Honda Element 🙏
No thanks but maybe a mustang
How would you compare to the palisade
Underneath it's better with a full steel frame.
Under the hood the palisade is easier to work on.
New Toyotas have not been the same ever since the BMW partnership to produce the Supra. Although, I assume the reliability of plastics is better than Beemers as Toyota has kaizen cultural philosophy
Toyota quality is becoming mainstream
@@speedkar99 Exactly! Right on
