What's going on at Toyota? Tearing engines apart at 20K-30K miles is ridiculous! Yes it's covered under warranty but shouldn't be happening in the first place. Shame on you Toyota for going the way of most other manufacturers, building crap?
I always knew this would eventually happen to Toyota , my 1990 Corolla looks and runs like new and has only needed a new starter, alternator and muffler after 380 K Miles !
Toyotas are still great please realize n this video I’m sure ur looking at a 1 to 100,000(if not a lot more) chance of this happening to your brand new Toyota. And this is probably the customer fault listening to that “10k mile oil interval” Toyota service department fails to tell people that you have to “qualified” for that interval. I blame the costumer because it’s n the manual and people don’t bother to read it.
da gov done doo that. C.A.F.E. Standards have increased oil change intervals to meet reduced hydrocarbon consumption per manufacturer. Also, off the showroom floor testing of vehicles and warranty coverage periods have forced the consumer's hand to accepting cars that last up until the warranty ends. There are outliers that end up being either jewels or lemons. The reason why old camrys and accords last so long is the oil break in changes that the dealers used to do. 500, 1000, then 5k intervals were the norm in the 90's.
Gents, DO NOT use factory recommended oil change interval at 10k miles. I buy cars new and first oil change is 100 miles, second before 1k, then every 5000 miles.
This has NOTHING to do with 10k changes... we've had 7.5k non synthetic oil intervals since the 80s... our 1995 Canry ran perfectly at 300k and we changed the oil 12k or once per year... 10k is beyond conservative. CRX, Miata Camry all had 7.5k intervals and they all lasted forever...
I agree 1000% with you Nexgen. Still that’s not the new tundra engine issue. Oh I bet is more than engine shaving left over. Lame excuse, they are lying
@@pireina1 I had a few engineering classes in college (back when college had real materials). There is no replacement for displacement. The longer stroke to make up for torque + increased centrifugal force + additional compression from forced induction = huge pressure on 6 crank bearings that may have compromised the oil film, causing metal to metal contact.
The manufacturers give you the wrong recommendations on purpose so you have to purchase more of their products…i’ve believed that for years. Just like the manufacturers tell you 50 or 60k miles for a cvt transmission service; every 25k.
Thanks for even taking the time to watch my friend, just started making videos Haven’t seen no tundra yet, But soon as I do I’ll make a video of it and I’ll make it perfect clean so customer can have piece of mind, I’m all Toyota and I’ll make sure to protect the tundra name in my area take care my friend thanks
I was a toyota tech at large volume dealer in minneapolis from 2006-2010 and during those years we had the infamous oil sludge issue destroying motors with less than 50k miles due to the oil galleys of the 1MZ-FE 3.0 engine not being large enough is what was determined after a lawsuit settlement. I also had to deal with the 2009 gas pedal ecm issue recall/lawsuit and the truck frame corrosion lawsuit/recall so we were busy!
“Toyota expects the techs to do their jobs correctly” and then they pay us a lower time and get surprised when things go south… not saying it’s an excuse to take shortcuts but people seem surprised when warranty repairs fail. Also If they want us to fix it right the first time they should at least attempt to build it right the first time
Oil changes every 5000. Daughter has an XSE Camry 19 4 cylinder with 60000 miles, wife a 19 Avalon with 70000 miles, and son a 97 LE Camry 4 cylinder with 72000 miles. All oil changes at 5000 miles, trans and coolant at no later than 60000-75000 miles. Will last. And use the recommended oil viscosity.
I have a 2014 Camry 245k says 0w20 every 10k wouldn’t still be running if I followed that, Toyota will burn oil , I’ll make a video once I have 250-300 to look inside and rebuild I have to pass 250 first, thanks for watching take care
Bought my wife a new 2024 Lexus NX350h. Lexus recommends 10k oil change. Nope ain’t having it. Had its first oil change at 1k, then every 5k after that. Same treatment on our 2 other Lexuses at home. We always buy new and keep them until they fall apart.
How many tech like you in our local dealerships? less than 10% they do there job correctly and you are the less than 10% that would do the job properly.
Yeah, a shop like Hyundai or Kia, where engine swaps happen literally every day, may actually be more competent than a Toyota dealer. Toyota techs botched the boxer valve spring replacement, but Subaru techs mostly got it right.
The problem with Toyota is these people are driving them like they were Dodge chargers Chevy Camaros Ford Mustang keep seeing them get blown up gone are the days of the old little Asian lady driving on the fast lane at 42 mph
Would you say that the long oil change intervals cause this? I change my oil every 5k miles which is far more often than they recommend but I figure I'd rather waste some money on oil than wasting an engine.
I have done 10k since 06 or 07 on everything that isn’t flat tappet or carbed. Had everything from Chevrolet Malibu, Equinox, Nissan Rogue, Altima, Toyota Highlander, Corolla, RAV4, Passat gas and a focus. So far the Malibu, rogue and Altima all went over 230k before being sold. Equinox and Passat are over 170 the RAV4, focus and Highlander are over 100, and the Corolla is at 240 still going strong. I drive between 60-100k a year and my wife drives around 40. So we go through vehicles pretty regular.
My 23 RAV4 got its first service at 2k and 5k from now on. The 10k interval is crazy to me especially with 0W16 oil. I love the Rav but I'll probably go with a different brand for my next vehicle which makes me 😢
Toyota need to stop being cheap and bring back cast iron 4cyl blocks. 10k mile oil change intervals? Thank god they don't have turbos on it. Ohh wait the TUNDRA! Sheeshh!! 🙏🏽4 turbos
Toyota sucks now. All my life I drive only Toyota car. Now I don’t even want Toyota car. I have a Toyota and only 40k mileage and has a lot of issues:(
I have a ‘17 Camry SE with 9000 miles on it, which is the opposite of yours. It’s a garage queen and is not driven in snow or rain. My wife’s ‘15 Camry has 290K miles on it and is still flawless. Never had to add oil to it in eight years.
@@jonpeacey8941 thanks a lot, check out the build I just did on 04 Tacoma , clips up but timelaps will be up when I finish it tomorrow . Again thank you, 💯 FJ video I think is cool my 4Runner Video our 💯 check it out thank you, anything less let me know
What a bold statement about Toyota reliability ! Every Chevy I had went well over 250 K ! Toyota takes care of their customers L.O.L. They should be replacing the whole engine not rebuilding the P.O.S. !
Do you think the lower viscosity oils are contributing to early engine failure? I switched to 0W30 and even 0W40 in the summer on my Tacoma since new. I don't trust 16 or 20 oils.
If you’re into “oil” look up 540RAT engineering blog. He has dynamically tested over 300 engine oils by now and recently some ATF and gear oils. Use a xW30 highly ranked he says. Cliffsnotes: BEST available is Quaker State Full Synthetic 5W30 (not Ultimate Protection/must be 5W30). This is for ALL modern liquid cooled gasoline engines 👍🏽
I think so. With thin oils if the engine gets a little hot it thins the oil further. You run into having too little minimum oil film thickness to provide protection. I think 2.5 HTHS is the minimum number for protection and 0w-20 is like 2.6.
That happens when you take the car to the dealer for service, I change the oil to my Toyotas from day one, when new at 1500k miles and 5000k miles every time, never had any problems.
Honestly thanks for the comment , I’m new at recording and trying to make a video , 0 Experience , Rather let my work do the Talking for now, I’m still trying to break myself in, thanks for the tip, I’ll work on that I’ll get better, what I do know is Toyota engines, And I will display it for those that want to see, In my Art Style of work, been at Toyota for over 15yrs This channel going to be mostly all Toyota Life as a Toyota Tech, Only Difference is, I’ll never turn my Back on my Store I’m all Toyota I’m sure I can change life’s and inspire those that need it.

I have a 2005 Toyota Tacoma four-door 6 foot bed SR5 pre-runner with 387,000 miles engine never touched trans. Commission never touched only oil change on the transmission. I always change oil every 5000 miles Toyota filter, Toyota air cleaner, and Castro motor oil. The best quality they have available runs like new doesn’t use oil doesn’t smoke. Doesn’t do anything wrong except run wild you can do 100 on the highway and not look back

@818guy6 it's a design flaw on 22 and up models. Metal shavings getting in motors. Turbos are also failing on a lot of them. They have a recall on over 100,000 vehicles. So no..its absolutely nothing to do with oil changes.

100 percent flat rate my friend, My sis said if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life, just expect to see it like this every time, thanks for watching
@@WaltNasty what is your opinion on flat rate pay? I wish I felt the same way…maybe my dealership is just poorly ran? I also like fixing cars/solving problems…I just don’t care to do it for free or next to nothing. Sorry, not trying to be negative. I’m always curious of other techs opinions and how they’re doing professionally. Thnx for the response.
@@droboyjrlet’s keep it 💯 doing it for hourly when you have skills is doing it for free or for nothing, Get in that mind set with flat rate it will change your life, everyone works different so there’s different ways to answer that, Flat rate ain’t for everyone We’re you work?
@@WaltNastyI work at a toyota dealership. Some aspects of flat rate are good, but when you’re asked to diagnose cars for free I feel like that is unfair. ie, 2023 Camry with 9k miles has an intermittent misfire. As you know, many times on new vehicles they want you to create a TAS case and that means sitting on the phone and doing whatever Toyota asks you to do to diagnose. You could be borescoping cylinders, running compression and leak down tests, multiple test drives etc. We get nothing for that. We only get paid when we replace something and usually the labor rate on warranty is nothing to brag about. So this gives techs the incentive to throw parts at cars and also lie in order to get paid. I see it all the time. Now, If you get dispatched tickets that you can make money on and they balance out the charity cases then that’s good. But what I find is that as you gain in skill level the work you are dispatched naturally becomes more difficult and you may make more an hour but will flag significantly less. I personally believe that in the future if dealerships plan on keeping techs they will need to implement a guaranteed 40. That’s just my .02
I am 34 , I only work on my cars, I did a water pump replacement on a 2019 Ford Taurus with 160K miles, the timing chain drives the water pump, Full tear down, cleaned everything to the last dust spec, I thought i was the only one who works like this, Great Job, It took me 4 days to finish the job
I can’t speak for this technician, but at my dealership and my experience, factory warranty covered Toyota’s WILL NOT pay for diagnosis. They will pay him to replace a short or long lock but all the testing and digging he did ie compression tests, cylinder leak down tests, using borescope, analyzing freeze frame data etc. he will get NADA, ZERO, ZILCH. And when he goes to replace those parts warranty is never really that generous imo. But then again I could be wrong.
@@droboyjr that’s funny but so true your rite, I just do it, for my self and the customers piece of mind, Toyota don’t pay me to lay it out like that, been doing it for a long time, that way got used to it, even if I take a L for it, my skill will make it up somewhere else, long as customer 100 percent happy with work I’m happy it’s a win,
Young man, cleanliness is the key on reassembly. I can tell by this 3 minute video that you Sir are a good technician. 🍻

a lot of this has to do with emission. in order to pass, the tightest gap and tolerance on the piston/rings and that breaks stuff.

@@WaltNasty what is your opinion on flat rate pay? I wish I felt the same way…maybe my dealership is just poorly ran? I also like fixing cars/solving problems…I just don’t care to do it for free or next to nothing. Sorry, not trying to be negative. I’m always curious of other techs opinions and how they’re doing professionally. Thnx for the response.
@@droboyjrlet’s keep it 💯 doing it for hourly when you have skills is doing it for free or for nothing, Get in that mind set with flat rate it will change your life, everyone works different so there’s different ways to answer that, Flat rate ain’t for everyone We’re you work?
@@WaltNastyI work at a toyota dealership. Some aspects of flat rate are good, but when you’re asked to diagnose cars for free I feel like that is unfair. ie, 2023 Camry with 9k miles has an intermittent misfire. As you know, many times on new vehicles they want you to create a TAS case and that means sitting on the phone and doing whatever Toyota asks you to do to diagnose. You could be borescoping cylinders, running compression and leak down tests, multiple test drives etc. We get nothing for that. We only get paid when we replace something and usually the labor rate on warranty is nothing to brag about. So this gives techs the incentive to throw parts at cars and also lie in order to get paid. I see it all the time. Now, If you get dispatched tickets that you can make money on and they balance out the charity cases then that’s good. But what I find is that as you gain in skill level the work you are dispatched naturally becomes more difficult and you may make more an hour but will flag significantly less. I personally believe that in the future if dealerships plan on keeping techs they will need to implement a guaranteed 40. That’s just my .02
Tundra..rolling time bomb
I am 34 , I only work on my cars, I did a water pump replacement on a 2019 Ford Taurus with 160K miles, the timing chain drives the water pump, Full tear down, cleaned everything to the last dust spec, I thought i was the only one who works like this, Great Job, It took me 4 days to finish the job
Happy i drive a honda... lol
Trash toyotas
The Camry was in an accident.
What's the flat rate time for laying out the parts nice and neat?
$150/hr.
I can’t speak for this technician, but at my dealership and my experience, factory warranty covered Toyota’s WILL NOT pay for diagnosis. They will pay him to replace a short or long lock but all the testing and digging he did ie compression tests, cylinder leak down tests, using borescope, analyzing freeze frame data etc. he will get NADA, ZERO, ZILCH. And when he goes to replace those parts warranty is never really that generous imo. But then again I could be wrong.
@@droboyjr that’s funny but so true your rite, I just do it, for my self and the customers piece of mind, Toyota don’t pay me to lay it out like that, been doing it for a long time, that way got used to it, even if I take a L for it, my skill will make it up somewhere else, long as customer 100 percent happy with work I’m happy it’s a win,
@@WaltNasty your dealer is lucky to have you that’s for sure! Great work!
