This is the kind of mechanic I want working on my car, so much passion for the craft and pride in his work.
...and they are becoming very very hard to find.
But by installing the old serpentine belt now he’s going to charge labor on what was already to be done
@@danielharo1412 So what! Skilled craftsman deserve a bonus!
@@gary8653 it’s not the best way to take good care of your customer. A bit sneaky even
Sadly they arevunicorns now , even main dealer techs ain’t what they used to be
Awesome work! My father was a Lexus Master Tech for 30 years! He taught me everything I know and some of the tips you give regarding the job are the same things he will tell me. You sir are a true master tech! Hats off
Good to know there are still people in this world who are conscientious in the things that they do. I have no doubt the shop will be a big success.
Facts
shop is booked months in advance fyi
@@Jantonvid indeed it is... I was able to get my diagnostic appt scheduled back in September for a cold November Chicago day, coming up in just two short weeks for expert TLC to get my old rig winter weather fixed
Every time I think about getting a new car I come these 430 videos and instantly change my mind again
AMD, The video is so well-lit and crystal clear. The only thing missing is a live studio audience. 🤩
I recently did a timing belt job on a family member’s 2004 Toyota Sequoia with 259,000k miles. She is the original owner and has never had the timing belt replaced. I was surprised to see that the original belt was still in very good shape. All new parts used were bought from Toyota.
Aisin pump bando belts mitsuboshi timing belts ntn or aisin (forgot) tensioner and koyo or nsk idlers (be sure to do both) and your golden any of the other crap and it won't last like the original oem supplied parts listed above
I just replaced a timing belt on a 1986 Thunderbird Turbo coupe with the nearly indestructible 2.3 engine (the ONLY Toyota 4 cyl that lasts as long is the 22R/RE)--car had 260K, and the original Ford belt (likely a Gates belt, Ford subcontracted) lasted 36 years. I DONT buy belts from dealers and I've been doing repair for 50 years.
I can also vouch for that. I changed a timing belt on a 2004 Lexus GS300 in 2021; it was the original and a bit brown but still intact and not too cracked
I replaced the belt on my wife's Hyundai Getz when it reached the advised time to replace it [6 years] however it had only done 65,000 Km and the belt looked brand new, there was also an OEM korea made water pump provided with the belt, so as it is just as difficult to replace the pump as the belt, it went in, I talked to my local mechanicand told him it had only racked up another 15,000 Km in the latest 6 years and he said don't worry about the 6 year limit, it will probably be good up to 15 years, It was a US made Gates belt
@@adoreslaurel Gates has been the world leader in drive belt technology for nearly 100 years. Use of any other belt or components is settling for second best.
50 years in automotive repair...I know.
It's not just the passion it is his integrity that impressed me the most ...am a retired dealer tech ith 40 yrs
Very meticulous, passionate and detailed work/video. As a mechanical engineer this makes me especially happy when this passion goes full circle: the engineers who designed it, the plant thaat cast/machined it, the factory workers who assembled it, the driver who took good care of it, and it gets to a mechanic who treats it the same way. Whatever you own, take care of it the best you can. That's what my dad taught me and I see it here.
I got my timing belt replaced on my 03 Lexus ES300 at 180k miles. I asked to see the belt afterwards. It honestly looked brand new. No cracks or obvious wear, perhaps it was soft but it didn't immediately register as such. That belt is about 10 years old and had 90K on it.
I bought a Ls430 about a month ago 1 owner 04 UL 150k and I’m thrilled that you made a video on this vehicle. Repairing cars as they are meant to be repaired seems to be a lost art.
I agree most people now just ditch their cars instead of keeping and taking care of them. Its becoming a lost art. I think that tells allot about a persons character.
Yes, 2005 Lexus LS 430 with 140,000 miles. We changed the timing belt, idler, water pump, hoses with new antifreeze using highest quality parts. After 1000 miles my daughter watched the temperature gauge climb to more than hot. It then went back down. Then the engine locked up. Engine destroyed. The cause was an internally collapsed radiator.(the original radiator looked good, but was worn out from the inside). After $2,000 for a JDM replacement engine and an additional $4,500 in labor including a new radiator we were back on the road.
My recommendation to you is to change out the radiator also.
22:00 That looks brand new!
I just bought a 1 owner 3rd gen 2005 GS430 with 115000km on it (72Kmiles)here in Australia, serviced by Lexus its whole life. beautiful vehicle.
I also just purchased a 2005 GS430! Apparently, only 422 were sold in 2005 in North America at least, not sure about world wide. Still, a very rare car. Mines 186k miles and 3 owners, but in great stock shape. Need to do timing belt soon and some other preventative maintenance items
I enjoy his videos so much but they always make me wonder if the mechanics at my dealership are this knowable and thorough.
Great video, your knowledge of the important details: Not leaving slack on the non-tensioner side, making sure the arrows point out and not inward towards the T-marks, the plastic cover, etc... all golden information. Let's also give props to that original timing belt looking half-decent after 28 years.
More like 18 years
@@johnaclark1 hmm yeah, my math was dumb yesterday
The best mechanic on TH-cam. You made it look very easy. Very good instructor.
There's something very cool about watching an absolute master of his craft like AMD do their work. They make it look much easier than it is.
Before I replaced the timing belt and water pump on my SC430 I consulted three different sources - each of which omitted one or more detail. But between the three I created a step-by-step list that included what the other left out. Experience with other auto repairs will help you deal with what is not covered in manuals, videos.
As mentioned by the creator of the video - it’s challenging to cover every step without making the video too long. Only thing I will add is I used a torque wrench on most of the bolts - especially on the water pump to ensure equal pressure is applied to the five bolts.
Good point about twerking I'm pretty sure he mentioned stretching in twerking now so I believe the failure is on you knowing awesome video keep up the good work
I have a SC430 as well. 2005. Would you be willing to share the step by step list and any other info? Engine 3UZ-FE
@@stephenfunari4575 I’d gladly share except the list except it’s on a hard drive that failed. If you go to the Lexus SC430 Owners Forum there’s a step-by-step list there. That combined with some 430 engine timing belt TH-cam videos will cover most of the key points.
Thank you@@oomfh
@oomfh hey my man only thing I can't find for myself on this job is what type of bolts to replace the 5 water pump bolts with?
Wow, that's a very difficult job. Thanks for letting us see what's involved with a timing belt and water pump replacement.
Its.....not....difficult.
@@donreinke5863 but it can very well be for somebody that has neck, spine, knee issues without proper equipment and cannot reach at any of that stuff without getting paralysed in the cervical spine or elsewhere
@@JAY-gv4eq I should have posted with the caveat "able bodied", but I do know of a paraplegic who is quite proficient at working on things and has found very inventive ways to compensate for his inability to use his lower body.
@@JAY-gv4eq I should have posted with the caveat "anyone of sufficient physical capability", although I know of two so-called "disabled" individuals who do their own repairs and have found inventive ways to do things despite one of them being paraplegic and the other being an arm amputee from an accident.
I watched the amputee use his hook to cross terminals on a starter relay, while I would have had to find a tool to do that.
I also watched him grab a hot part that would have burned the hell out of me if I were to have even touched it.
Telling either of them they are disabled will result in both giving a harsh reply.
Your passion for what you do and explaining everything is top notch! Well done and wishing you all the success!
My 2006 Sienna has 225,000 miles and the timing belt looks really good, never been changed. just a bit stretchy. It's getting changed this week. Yeah!
I love watching you work mate - you are more like a watch technician rather than a mechanic. Great car that is in such good condition considering its age. Thanks for sharing this with us!
I know this is different but I just want to say my 2007 Honda Civic I was on the original serpentine belt with 330,000 miles. I gave this vehicle to my niece and it’s still going strong. Toyota and Honda’s are built well !
But there r people who religious for doing absolute maintenance in recommended intervals
If that belt (or driven accessories) would have failed...ALL your exhaust valves would have bent and required replacement.
I had a Civic come in that someone got cheap and didnt change the water pump with the belt. It seized, the belt broke, and the valves got wiped out.
@@donreinke5863 Yes, that’s why I was very vigilant about looking for glazing/cracks/abnormal wear. I really wasn’t suggesting people to go that long but just to point out how the quality and Hondas are compare to the old big three.
@@melmel2644 Once again I will state..My 38 year old (driven daily) Bronco II with its original engine begs to differ, but of course it has a timing gear (not chain and sprocket) setup.
Timing belts were never a good idea..used to have to change them on Fiats back in the 70s and the timing belt equipped Pontiac overhead cam 6 was discontinued after only 4 years in favor of the overhead valve Chevy 6 that it was based on, an ancient design that was barely upgraded over its lifespan
The "big three" used timing chains with few exceptions until they started producing 4 cyl engines, and the Ford 2.3 (not that POS 2.3 made currently) was non interference so even if the belt broke it didnt take out the valves as Hondas were known to do.
When Ford designed their overhead cam Triton (modular) engines, they used timing chains--not belts, and the GM LS as well as all Chrysler Hemi engines use chains also, though they are not overhead cam.
Honda and Toyota finally did get smart, many of their newer engines also have chain driven camshafts.
The only intelligent thing Toyota did with belt driven camshafts was to use a timing belt much wider than other engines.
Sir, you are a fantastic person and a fantastic mechanic. You're a great teacher too. I don't even have that particular car and I enjoyed the whole video. Thanks for all you do!
That guy has a reserved spot in heaven
I recently bought an 06 ls430 with 98k and first thing I did was change the timing belt. Old one was still in very good shape!
Knowledgeable mechanic because you make it easy and practical for me to understand.
Now that was a nicely done how to repair a video. Thought out, very well edited. No waste of time. Nice job
Wow, nice video, thanks! Can’t imagine myself doing this project myself. Like tax preparation and dentistry, there are some things worth paying for to get it done right the first time!
This is fascinating. Watched the whole thing even though I have intention of ever doing this. It's really a skill and an art, and you're as good as they get sir!
Mechanics like you are UNDERPAID! Perfection! I am very impressed with your skill.
The best mechanic ever and honest.. Definitely learn something new every video I watch
I used a feeble Sears electric impact circa early 1980s to remove the 22mm crank bolt on my 06 Toyota Sienna. The trick was the socket that I used , a Lisle number 77110 harmonic balancer socket. Heavy as hell but worth every bit of the 26 bucks that it costs
RE: LS430, Man you are the best of the best! It’s so hard to find an honest mechanic.. Every mechanic I’ve spoken too about a timing belt change they all say “OMG Lexus is a shit show, incredibly hard to work on!” I’m like “really?” I call bs
You're simply such an amazing instructor. Love your works and diligence. 💕👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽Thank you.
Great Video ! The trick about ensuring the timing belt is set to the right point on the crank, & then transferring the slack in the belt to the passengers side of the crank was really great. Always enjoy your videos.
Sure appreciate your positive attitude and so humble. This is not easy but you make it look easy. Good video
I've watched and read several videos on completing the timing belt job on the UZ engines in preparation to replace mine soon. This one is by far the best, covering every detail and leaving little room for questions. My 2004 LS will be very happy to receive its new timing belt soon...
Just did this service on on my 430 today 200,000 miles thanks so much for the video wouldn't tried it without your video just like you said. Saved$$$
In the 1980's Dayton Tire and Rubber was making timing belts for select Japanese cars that were guaranteed for the life of the vehicle. I had one on a 1979 Plymouth Colt. It was still soldiering on at 210,000 miles when I sold the car. It's my understanding one of the Japanese car manufacturers bought the timing belt process and immediately shelved it.
I can’t understand why they can’t just stick with a chain…
Love the LS430’s ! The original owner of my 2002 ES300 changed the timing belt at 88k miles also changed the water pump and valve cover gasket. I now have 170,500 miles and I’ll be having it changed at 180k miles.
Why would you touch it if it was done 85-100k miles ago. ?
@@anthonymarinelli9224 it’s due to be changed every 90k miles so I’m due in about 10k miles at 180k miles
@@stephendibari5010 they can go more than that I would do it every 125-150
@@anthonymarinelli9224 I hear you. Of course Lexus /Toyota recommends 90k to cover their asses.
@@stephendibari5010 I’m sure ppl never do them and they last 200k miles I wouldn’t do anything untill it breaks on a car that old
Only in my dreams could I do this. You make it look so easy! Love the work light.... very nice.
It isn't that difficult.Take it from someone who has much more experience than the uploader
50 years this coming September.
Just don't be dumb and take cheap shortcuts--like not replacing EVERYTHING driven by the timing belt, such as all idlers, tensioner(s) and on some engines water pump.
If funding permitted I wouldn’t hesitate to hire you to repair my leaking timing cover on my 2012 Sienna, 3.5L. She’s clean with 170k on the clock. I really like what you have going on here…thanks
I am so glad i found this video on how to replace the timing belt of ls430 2004.... The best tutorial and guide I've ever seen.
Thnx alot for ur clear explanation...
Tgnx alot for the details u provided.
Excellent job. ✌️✌️✌️
You are the best teacher,of course your love and respect of the 4.3 shines ! I know it's a classic.
I really like the way you do your videos and how you explain the little traps for young players. Can't get over how clean your workshop is.
From a retired road side breakdown mechanic in Australia.
It's a new shop but you can tell this guy would be anal about cleanliness.
Great experience begets great knowledge. This man is what everyone dreams their local repair mechanic was even half as competent as !
Super helpful how-to! I'm coming up on 180k on my 04 430 and this gave me more confidence to tackle it.
Thanks AMD. Your inspiration gotten me to become a member of the LS 430 club member. Just bought an 06 yesterday. Looking forward to utilize your videos to fix it up.
Man I’m glad I have a Toyota product. 🙂
It is always nice to watch a pro work. Very cool.
Great Video! Back when I replaced the timing belt on my 3.4 v6 2001 Tacoma it was easily twice as bad as the cracked belt you showed from the sienna! 😄 That belt was at twice its lifespan, 20 years old, and had lived most of its years in the desert! At the time it was new to me, and the previous owner never bothered with it. At the very least it was a non-interference engine so if it did ever snap, the engine wouldn't be destroyed.
Thanks for all the great Toyota content!
Best DIY on timing belt replacement have used it twice very well done Kudos
You are a pro , sir. Thank you for the well done videos as well as your knowledge & professional work.
Just watched the video and enjoy watching all of them . Your thorough, great at explaining things I just wish I could find a honest mechanic like yourself. May the lord bless you as he has.
I have a Toyota and you have helped me in some of my jobs so thanks again.

Congrats on the new shop! I wish you nothing but the greatest success in your future! Very good video production, keep up the good work. From a neighbor up here in NE Wisco!
What a great video! Thank you “Teacher” for all you do.
My wife and I agree the music you picked is awesome! Some channels the music is so annoying! Thanks for the thoughtfulness
A most excellent demonstration of the timing belt job!
My ‘06 GS just turn over 50k so I’m loving this post! Been thinking of this exact subject
Really great video - clear and informative, thanks for taking the time to make it (love that workshop too!!).
This is hands down my new favorite channel
Fantastic display of a true professional 👍
It's very clear that you are one great mechanic!
I just got a 2006 LX w 238k miles and first thing I did was a baseline - water pump, pulleys, tensioners, heater Ts, valve cover gasket… and of course the timing belt. Cost a pretty penny but now I’m confident it’ll rip up the side of a mountain, which it has twice since I’ve owned it 😅
My father bought a 2004 LS new and ran it up to 280k, sold it to my aunt and it now has 400k last I heard. Nothing has ever broke on it, just stuck to regular maintenance intervals.
It’s good to know there’s still great people like yourself whose honest and will do the work , we have a Lexus LS 430 2002 , I want to ask you a few questions using three codes that a Toyota technician would know can you let me know what these codes mean or the parts we need to replace on our car ? P0440 Evap Emission Control Sys Malf , P0441 Evap Emission Control Sys Incorrect Purge Flow , P0446 Evap Emiss Control Sys. Control Circuit Malf. It has over 301,000 miles on it.
Had same codes myself. Try this if you haven't already and you can thank me later. Stop by your local Toyota dealership and pickup an (OEM) Toyota brand new Gas cap and throw out your old one after its replaced with this new one. The codes should clear themselves shortly once the Check Engine Light disappears. Or you can stop by your local Auto Zone or Adavanced Auto Parts store and have them use their scan tool to clear the Check Engine Light and rescan for any trouble codes. They do this free of charge. I am optimistic this will solve your problem. Those are one of the most common engine trouble codes and a gas cap has proved to be the culprit time and time again.
Excellent video! And you responded the question I asked in you last live session about hard and brittle hoses. A few weeks ago I was checking my 2010 Corolla's PCV valve and destroyed that hose! I noticed that all the hoses connected to the engine are hardened where the insert in the engine. I was afraid on the car having a heating problem in the past. Hope is only because of local hot weather! Thanks
I had a 2004 LS430. Ordered it without even driving one as the dealer had none on the lot. The first luxury car I could ever afford. Kept it 10 years. Ran like a top the whole time. Probably should have kept it longer. Now I drive a 2020 Highlander, also a great car.
When I had a 2003 tundra with the 4.7l v8 a friend and I did the timing belt at 130,000 miles. The belt still looked brand new,lol it took us in experienced guys like 20 hours.
I just did a full Timing belt job on a one owner 98 4 runner with the 3.4 V6 . Water pump and pulleys ok. It really only needed a belt but it was intact with just some faint cracks on the smooth surface, good for many thousand miles more. No leaks, all fully functional. Amazing quality.
I was going to make a video myself, I decided there's no need to make it as I don't believe I could explain the process any better! Bravo my man! 5/5 🔧 🔧 🔧 🔧 🔧 to you sir!
Excellent workmanship👍👍
Great job. I have a 2002 Lexus LS430 they're great cars and the 3UZ-FE is a super reliable engine. I would love to see how the injectors are replaced in these cars.
Wish I lived closer to this mechanic, great video
I changed the timing belt on my 2003 Tundra (V8) a couple months ago. I bought it new and it had 220k miles on the original belt. After watching the three-part 1A-Auto TH-cam series I took it on myself. Even after buying the tools I didn't have I still came out ahead... and I get to KEEP the tools! It was surprisingly easy, although time consuming and a couple of times I thought I might have gotten in over my head but a step back and a mental regroup was all it took. My biggest concern was making sure the little O-ring on that new water pump wasn't going to leak. So far, so good.
Wanted to mention though, the original timing belt looked brand new. I was almost disappointed. The replacement was a Gates kit with all the pulleys from RockAuto so I think I did okay.
I really appreciate your channel. I LOVE my Toyotas. I've owned nothing but Toyotas for forty years (2 4-Runners, Celica, 2 Corollas, Camry V6 (hated that transverse engine), Tundra, and an 86GT), I've worked on them all, and when it's something outside my ability, I won't let just any mechanic near them. When the high pressure fuel pump on my 86 needed replacement under recall, I really tried to get the local dealer to just let me have the pump and I'd do it myself. They didn't, although they did do a good job.
lol big mistake, u replaced a good oem belt and pulleys (which is fine) but the mistake was u literally downgraded it with cheap Chinese aftermarket parts lol. U literally made it worst
@@pdubsyyyygates is chineze....

AMD you are making Art of your job. Excellent video. Thank you.
That was amazing. You Made it look soooo easy. I wish he lived in Califonia. I just found a 2001 ls430 with 107,000miles Base model. ill surely need to have this job done, Belt, water pump and pulleys. The shop floor looks great
Great video! Impressive new shop!
Hot areas belts should be changed with both miles and age considered.
My 1999 Land Cruiser the belt only had 70k miles on the second belt but it was 12 years old.
23 year old original alternator, radiator, fan bearing so changed them all.
180k miles but still running great
Love Toyota
Great work, AMD. We could use great mechanics such as yourself in Canada! Cheers my friend. 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Fantastic stuff sir - the best on the Internet!! 👍🏽👍🏽
Great video, wish it was available 6 months ago when I did my sc430 timing belt. Biggest job I've ever done on a car and I'm very happy I accomplished it. Sold the car for a $10k profit too 😀 love your channel 😉
@FINDFIXRESTORE - well done!
I wish I lived closer to this mechanic. I have an LS430 and live in Dover, NJ.
I just got mine done. The last time it was done was 2013. 40k miles ago. The belt literally looked new. Next time, I'll wait a bit longer before I have it changed out.
I had my 2002 LX470 original timing belt replaced two years ago at 136,666 miles. The old belt looks brand new. I kid you not. I live in Northern California.
I have never seen a job where so many things can go wrong if the mechanic is not some kind of car care genius. I just hope that you are there when my Sienna needs this work.
Great tips that saved me time and money doing this myself.
Just got my 2003 LS430 back 2 days ago after timing belt replacement, The maintenance schedule recommends replacement at 90.000 miles or 72 months (6 years), but in my case the car, which I have owned since 2009, did not get this done until 110,000 miles and 20 years. Old belt looked very, very good and I have no doubt it could have lasted as long as I, or the car, lasted. Looks like previous owner took car back and forth between Connecticut and Florida, and although now is in a colder climate I usually have it garaged and have not taken it out much into the cold, icy winters. It has had an easy life.
The recommended change milage on my 2005 CTD-250 2.0ltr D4D Diesel Avensis engine is listed at 60,000 which I have religious done 3 times now. Toyota gave me a little sticker to place on the plastic cover to log the miles and date of changes with a reminder of when it's next due because once the cover is on there's no way to phyically inspect the belt without removal of the cover, that's just the way it is. 😋
Amazing how well built!
Thanks for a good video AMD. After viewing I am confident I could do this as well, just like I did my 06 Sienna ( even replaced the cam seals )
Impressive. You are who I would want working on my vehicle.
I am starting to think that you are a 1-of-kind or at least rare mechanic and because I am looking at buying a used Lexus, wish you had your shop in my province (Nova Scotia, Canada)! Thanks for the educational and well put together videos.
We need more shop like TCCN, my Lexus dealer just charged me for a 55k miles service again even though I told them I had it done before at another Lexus dealership and have the receipt to proof it.
I've done a billion timing belt jobs and I've seen many cars towed in with snapped belts. The belts used on Toyota's V6 and V8 engines are super tough and last FAR longer than other belts. I have seen one of these belts break only once - it was a Land Cruiser with a 4.7. The truck was about 20 years old at the time and had 280k miles on it - it was the original belt! Fortunately for the owner no valves were damaged and all they had to pay for was a timing belt and water pump installation.
Your videos are excellent! Thank you!
I just picked up a Corolla SE White with black interior and I am extremely happy with the looks of the car. The ride is a little rough and you do hear some road noise, with that being said, it's a nice little car.
I am doing a 500 mile or more break in period, during start ups I have always let my cars warm up.
My V8 2003 4Runner was first time to change the timing belt since I bought it brand new. Changed the TB 3 months ago and I was surprised the TB looks like brand new, no cracks at all even you squeeze it. My Runner have low mileage though only 84,000 miles.
So enjoyable to watch a true master of his craft! Watching AMD is like seeing a professional musician play. He makes it look so easy.
Thank you. Very helpful. 2002 ls430 with 96k
You do a great job on these videos! Thank you 🙂
Love this guy…thanks for the video!
