My girls FRS currently is at 204k miles for a 2013. Idk how it’s got a lot, but it’s been running great. I’m helping her out to get as much changed and fixed, so thank you 🙌🏽
Mr yeah back in February I had the valve springs recall done and 2 days later I broke down on the side of the road and 2 weeks later Toyota told us we needed to get a new lower block which costed $ 5,000, but ever since then it’s been running fairly well
I just bought a new 2018 eight six two days ago. While I been studying up on the manuals, I’m very glad I found this video to help me keep track of maintenance. Thanks a million guys for taking the time to film this tutorial 😁👍
bruh i be so paranoid wondering if its in properly because on the side is sticking out just a tad like if its not closed shut but thats how it was when i got it and havent had issues about it so i just replaced it and left it alone
I recently noticed that I need to flush my clutch fluid as its supposed to be changed every 2 years, like the brake fluid. My car has only done 25,000 km. I think it is good to mention this as I never knew what this reservoir was for the clutch and it can affect the gear changes.
Musicizmyremedy that’s why I️ need a video to show the correct process. Pretty sure a lot of people would watch that and buy the recommended spark plugs.
It can be done without lifting the engine. I've done it before. You just need a few select tools. There's a few threads on it on ft86club forums. But yeah, lifting engine would make it much easier.
Why would you need to inspect the diff and trans oil every 15k/30k miles if it is dirty? Just have a schedule and change it then. How do you determine if it is dirty?
Used engine restorer 4 cylinders on my 2015 Scion FRS and I now have around 6 check engine codes. Cars at 82,200 miles and it says on the can use on any car over 50k...also put in a bottle of STP gas after a trip the gas station. Codes with the same oil I used the restorer on: P0420, P0014, P0014, P000B, P000D, P00014 Codes AFTER I changed the oil(because I changed the oil around 15 miles after): P0420, P0014, P000B, P000B, P000D, P0014, P000B. A month or 2 ago the car was at stage 1 with the OPENFLASHTABLET then stage 3+ with flex fuel(without flex fuel kit). Flashed it back to original ECU/file and sold the OpenFlashTablet.

Everyone keeps saying saying that a clogged air filter reduces mileage. That is true only with carburetors, not efi. There will be power loss due to less airflow at full throttle but the ECU will maintain a stoichiometric air/fuel ratio at all times.
I’ve found that so many people don’t maintain there cars they just drive them until something seems off then trade them in for someone else to have the headaches
what about major service? i heard with these types of engines the timing belt etc needs to be replaced at about 100,000kms. Is this true? So there is no major service?

Toyota and Subaru would recommend using OEM coolant, but off the shelf coolant is better than no coolant. But if you drive your car on the track, Mishimoto Liquid Chill is a great choice. www.ft86speedfactory.com/cooling-104/coolant-fluids.html
FT86SpeedFactory not the correct block off plates. I meant the ones for the oil pass. From the motor to the auto transmission. I have a manual and have noticed a small oil leak from that spot. Where/how can I find those plates on your website?
Little Orange with the FRS I’ve been told by my friend who is a mechanic it can last up to 100K. Just check the fluid level, make sure no there is no leaking or oil mixing in with the radiator fluid. That’s the last thing you want.
Andrew Kim I have and I wondered if I had a leak. Did compression testing at the dealer for hours and they couldn’t find one. Just filled it up to full and it’s been in the middle for a while now.
Try looking around your hoses where they meet the block or rad. See if you have any evidence of seeping that may be drying up before it hits the ground.
I came to the comments looking for someone to mention the coolant. It's a known issue that it should be checked more often than the video suggests. The reservoir is small, so check it every couple of months
Francisco Tellez upgrading forged pistons and rods wouldn't be a huge problem, but my fear is the transmission. I haven't found much development about it to make sure it could hold 100 extra hp
Musicizmyremedy This will depend on your tires. Many have tread patterns that are meant to rotate in only one direction, so switching sides will make them spin in the opposite direction, possibly providing less grip and water dispersion, so it can get very dangerous in the wet.
Actually if they go on the wrong way they will trap water under the wheels instead of dispersing it, making it dangerous. The tires that came on my 17 BRZ are not directional but the Yokohama advan I run do. They have a rotational direction arrow right on the wall of the tire.
Open House 24 Thanks! I guess that does make sense, and it's even worse than what I wrote. Musicizmyremedy, def don't switch sides if your tires are directional.
I got my FRS almost a week after this videos release, first time ever driving stick, anyone have any pointers on when I should be shifting gears, I’ve been primarily basing off engine noise and mph, I know it should be based mainly on RPM vs MPH I’ve been doing all 3 but I’ve been shifting out of first and into 2nd once I get rolling. Someone suggested to change gears every 3k rpm, but that sounds so high to me, the engine sounds very high pitched compared to driving 2k rpm which is normally when I shift.
gratz on learning man its a really fun lost art as an ae86 owner whos driven manual for about 6 years now (also rented an ft86, im looking for one right now) you should shift at about 3-4k and try not to cruse below 2500. The reason for this is the fa20 feels boggy below that which is expected as its a high hp/l engine rather than a high torque engine so lower end materials are made to be lighter. Unfortunatly due to this design these components cant handle as much load as cars meant to have higher low end torque as the rods are a bit less beefy.
Nope, no issues al all. It has been my daily driver and has been a great, reliable car. Just regular oil changes. I've put money into it, but that has just been for unnecessary aesthetic and performance upgrades. The next major service will be at the 60k mark ,and I plan to keep the car forever and hopefully put many many more miles on
Henry It was all stock EXCEPT for a Borla exhaust which isn’t obnoxious sounding so I’m probably keeping it. I’m not sure yet, because I also plan on buying back my first car from when I was in college from the person I sold it to (07 tC) for like a grand and turning it into an autocross car. That’s the car I’m gonna tinker with while I pay off the 86. Maybe in the future once it’s paid off and if the new Supra is any good I’ll make that my new daily and track this one someday.
Great video guys. I'm wondering, have your clients encountered high pressure fuel pump chirp squeak noises in the engine area and brought in their 86/BRZ for inspections? i'm wondering what's the recommended fix? thanks!
The hell. So I got the same cabin air filter, but I don’t know which way it should go. It says “flow” with an arrow pointing down, but the picture has it inserted flipped over. So does the arrow mean up or down? All the lettering when read right side up, the arrow points down (including “flow”). Should the lettering be upside down with the arrow pointing up or vice versa?
Thank you for the tips. Your video is going to be very helpful when I'm going to get an 86 somewhere at the end of this year. Probably I'm going to keep it stock, unmoded in any way.
@@crongo4284 So far so good, I got 2017 GT86 with only 7000 kms on the odo. He has done 20.000 kms so far, so nothing much besides oil and oil filter change
Never replace automatic transmission fluid unless the trans starts slipping, even then new fluid will likely make the problem worse.This is why most modern automatics don't even have a dipstick and are sealed, because the fluid degrades as the clutches degrade and new fluid on old clutches will cause problems.
Okay, okay. I just bought a Used 2016 Subaru BRZ at 40K Miles. I'm about to catch up on most of this maintenance, so thank you very much for the video. I would love to contact you more as I continue building out my car. This Is my first time. Will say it came to me with a Borla Exhaust System, but I don't know its full extent yet. Looking to get brakes, wheels, coilovers, and short-throw shifter, interspersed with light cosmetic and aero mods over the next 5 years, but am still developing the plan to keep it classy. Thank you for posting this!
It depends upon the tyres. Tyres with symmetrical tread pattern can be mounted on the rims of the other side. They only need to maintain the correct rolling direction
NEVER buy K&N. It can let larger micron dust through, it is an oil based filter and it can over time cause issues with mass air flow sensors and gumming up bits of the intake. It also costs a lot more on top of the potential maintenance cost of cleaning the intake and MAF.
you're telling everyone the wrong way to rotate the tires on our cars!!!! The correct way to rotate the tires is as follows; the back tires come straight up to the front, and the front tires cross over to the opposite side of the car as you rotate them to the rear!!! Its right in the owners manual
You mentioned checking the steering and making sure it's full of fluid, this car has electric power steering and I was told its not serviceable, how do you check it?
Yep you're right, my mistake. Got into a rhythm and confused it with our STI. The maintenance manual says to check steering gear, that is the only "inspection" of the steering system according to Toyota.
FT86SpeedFactory Thanks for the clarification, just making sure I wasn't missing anything. I'm less than 1500 miles to my 60k service, wanted to do it all at once. Thanks guys.

Okay, okay. I just bought a Used 2016 Subaru BRZ at 40K Miles. I'm about to catch up on most of this maintenance, so thank you very much for the video. I would love to contact you more as I continue building out my car. This Is my first time. Will say it came to me with a Borla Exhaust System, but I don't know its full extent yet. Looking to get brakes, wheels, coilovers, and short-throw shifter, interspersed with light cosmetic and aero mods over the next 5 years, but am still developing the plan to keep it classy. Thank you for posting this!
You need spark plugs done
Got my baby at 36,000 mi in sept 2016... 3 years later I just hit 80,000 mi. They grow up so fast :’)
I have had my 86 for about a little under 7 months with 2966 miles, still got a ways to go lol
That is a very nice build. That’s the cleanest underside I’ve ever seen. You take pride in your work
Very helpful video, thank you. Would you mind doing a video at some point on spark plug/coil pack replacement for us noobs?
Thank you for this
Inside (of the tyre) stays inside, no matter witch side...
It depends upon the tyres. Tyres with symmetrical tread pattern can be mounted on the rims of the other side. They only need to maintain the correct rolling direction
Where can I find the transmission oil block off plate? Can't seem to find it on the website. Thanks!
NEVER buy K&N. It can let larger micron dust through, it is an oil based filter and it can over time cause issues with mass air flow sensors and gumming up bits of the intake. It also costs a lot more on top of the potential maintenance cost of cleaning the intake and MAF.
Great video yet again, can you please show us how to change the automatic transmission fluid? Thanks
you're telling everyone the wrong way to rotate the tires on our cars!!!! The correct way to rotate the tires is as follows; the back tires come straight up to the front, and the front tires cross over to the opposite side of the car as you rotate them to the rear!!! Its right in the owners manual
7500 miles sound like a long time for oil change
Lmao it is. The usual is every 3-5 thousand
Planning to get a 2017 brz in a few months, these videos help a lot.
did you get one?
Great video. Tons of info for buyers and owners. Thanks!
I don't have a toyaburu, but I will soon and I'm so grateful for this video :)
Got a new 86 today! Have fun bro xD
2:00 you have to check your tires if too before switching left and right, some tires have arrows indicating for the rotation
When fitting those kind of wider wheels and tires, is it required to have an aftermarket coilovers or it can be done with stock ones?
Chuki beats!
You mentioned checking the steering and making sure it's full of fluid, this car has electric power steering and I was told its not serviceable, how do you check it?
Edwin Craig lol yeah not sure where that part came from
Yep you're right, my mistake. Got into a rhythm and confused it with our STI.
The maintenance manual says to check steering gear, that is the only "inspection" of the steering system according to Toyota.
FT86SpeedFactory Thanks for the clarification, just making sure I wasn't missing anything. I'm less than 1500 miles to my 60k service, wanted to do it all at once. Thanks guys.
Can you do a Subaru WRX/STI version of this too?
I’m buying a 2013 with 100k mileage should I just replace all of the fluids
What did you end up doing? How is the car? I recently bought one too
@@martintorres2799 plugs,oil, transmission, and diff I still need to do the coolant
@@GP-fc7jv did you ever hear a chirping coming from the engine bay? When moving and at idle. Just noticed a couple of days back but I’ve been reading that it’s a common issue ?
@@martintorres2799 from what I heard that it’s not a problem
@@GP-fc7jv yeah apparently something to do with the ethanol in gas. Apparently there is no fix? Unless you use ethanol free gas I guess. Replacing the hpfp didn’t fix it either for any of these owners
