My light came on few months a go been meaning to do it now after watching your great easy to follow vid I am confident i can go a head a do it this weekend Thank you guys
Hi Guys, that yellow line that was on the original (old) timing belt, is to be placed during installation in line with the upper camshaft timing mark; to show if their is at any time slippage on the belt. Their is no other reason for the mark. A great video otherwise. Regards.
I aligned both marks (camshaft and fuel pump) but fuel pump was not perfectly 100% aligned. I would say I was missing about 1-2mm. I turned the crankshaft to perfectly align the marks of fuel pump and fuel pump pulley (and alignment marks) turned backwards. Did I screw the timing? How can I align again the pump? The camshaft stayed firm and aligned. Thanks for your time

Use the marks of the original belt on the new belt. Or make some markings on the belt before removing it from the engine, then transition the marks for the new belt. Could be way easier to align it.
Great video lads-very clear information👌I have to do my own timing belt on my land Cruiser j120 with the very same engine but I wasn’t sure if I’d have to drain and remove the radiator to get in at the belt but this video cleared that up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You guys saved me a fortune, I'm an electronics engineer by trade but that doesn't transfer well to Automotive at the best of times, but your instructional youtube is just so very well done, it made the job a lot easier. Over here in Australia, I was quoted mega bucks for the kit and the labour by Toyota and we are in a rural area of Australia, so nothing is cheap. I was able to buy the exact kit off ebay which was half the price of the dealership here and the ironic part was, the supplier was a Toyota dealer in one of the major cities who supplied the genuine parts. I will admit that I had my mate Dave Shields with me, he was invaluable just like tom is to you I would say. Two sets of eyes on the process is better than one especially when one is electronics based and thinks everything can be fixed with a multi-meter and a spectrum analyser. Probably took us a little longer due to some silly apprentice mistakes, but overall, would not have had the confidence to do this without your video. I personally learned a lot about lining up timing marks and the why this is done, so that was the great thing about having Shieldsy .(In Australia, mates are just invaluable, especially in the country where we have to fix things on the fly quite a bit.) Shiledsy made me think about things when I was confused, and I know he could have done it in half the time, but taking the time to work with me, a great bonus. So in summary, great video, thank you from Dave and I for all your help, just a priceless video for anyone looking to change out a timing belt on the 3.0L D4D Toyota Hilux. Over here in Australia for Australians to note, this is the SR5 version of the Toyota if you are unsure, exactly the same as the MK6 Vigo. Look forward to your next video, Cheers Brenton Tangambalanga North East Victoria Australia....(VK3CM to any ham radio operators reading this)
Hi - always happy to help - we sell accessories to Australia every day so i am grateful for the business you guys give us - my goodness we even sent you over our best looking royals for a visit this week !
how quickly should you get the timing belt changed once the light comes on my timing belt light has been on for a little while now, and now im paranoid its going to break.
Thanks for taking the trouble to make the video lads. Really good DIY fix it vid. Unfortunately, you will always get some irrelevant criticism from people on TH-cam.
Thank you so much for this video, guys. It helped me a lot. I changed the timing belt on my Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 150, 3.0 diesel. I did it without removing the fan, but I had to remove the engine protection from the bottom. Once again many thanks!
Hi, cab you share the size of the sockets and tools used? Mainly, fan retention bolts, crank pulley bolts and the belt casing bolts, and tensioner bolts. I heard the hex key was a 10. Thanks!!
Thx for good video. Why is it important to set the timing belt position so specifically prior to removing the belt, instead of just removing the belt at any position ?
Estimado mi camioneta es 2013 hilux me imagino lo misma instrucción del vídeo. Gracias por tu vídeo es de gran ayuda. En la camioneta se marco en el tablero una señal de advertencia T- BELT y ya esta con 150.000 KM Recomienda cambiar la corrrea distribución.
+Muhammad AKMAL You have to remove the pin . Basically , the tensioner is placed in a vice , the rod is compressed till the hole in the rod lines up with the hole in the body of the tensioner , then you fit in the pin ( you can fit an Allen key 1.2 instead ), when you fit the tensioner , you remove the pin , so that the rod moves forward and applies tension against the idler pulley , and this holds the timing belt in place . If you dont remove the rod , the timing belt will be very loose , and my slip of off causing damage to the engine .
hi nice video. i have a toyota hi ace with a 2kd engine. a machanic rebuild my engine and after he did it it started to make a knoking sound. can it be the fuel injection pump? does it need to be timed with the camshaft ?
I've come to this very useful video (thanks gentlemen!) a bit late for commenting but if there's anyone out there, am I right in thinking that you could put back the new idle pulley and the tensioner unit BEFORE you fit the belt. Obviously, you wouldn't remove the 'fire extinguisher' pin until tension was needed. It seems to me that it would be easier to replace those two parts without the belt flapping about.
Hilux Vigo owners! Would you know if these cars were included for injectors seats seal recall ? That was in Europe. I have 2007 that was imported from uk and previously from Japan. Currently 140.000km no bad sign but for peace of mind I would rather find out.
+Ronel Matta Hi - i was the mechanic - it was a bit tricky as my assistant did the job and worked it out then i "re-did" the video - anyway as long you enjoyed it that the main thing. !
Many thanks! I've just used your brilliant video to guide me through doing my Toyota Regius (1KZ-TE engine but same timing mechanism). I'm no mechanic but this was a massive help. Much love!
Always best to change the tension if you can - its not expensive and you can sleep with a smile knowing its all nice and new inside your engine.... or is it just me that gets this feeling !
Did this today...there is 2 marks on the Toyota genuine belt, to line up with the marks on both of the pulleys, which is handy. Definitely gotta watch how much to tighten the tensioner bolts, I snapped one off in the block but could get it out easily enough luckily!
Just reading the comments after watching the video. You answered a question before I posed it because I bought mine in Thailand too, where I now live. We have a great Toyota dealership in Korat where we bought the truck and the service and prices are always good. So, no skinned knuckles for me this weekend.
My light came on few months a go been meaning to do it now after watching your great easy to follow vid I am confident i can go a head a do it this weekend

Desde colombia te agradezco mucho compartir tus conocimientos . Tu video me sirvio para cambiar la correa de mi toyota prado txl 2012 thanks
Should I replace the water pump at the same time? Currently 142000 km and 2009 model. Belt had never been replaced yet.
It may be a good idea but not necessary
Thanks for taking the trouble to make the video lads.
Really good DIY fix it vid.
Unfortunately, you will always get some irrelevant criticism from people on TH-cam.
Hi mate, great video. any difference between 3.0 and 2.5 ? vigo. thanks
Top job guys ! thanks alot
Thank you so much for this video, guys. It helped me a lot. I changed the timing belt on my Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 150, 3.0 diesel. I did it without removing the fan, but I had to remove the engine protection from the bottom. Once again many thanks!
Fantastic thank you

Cris fix. he has a video on that.
Hi, one question? What happens if i align the mark, by moving it from the camshaft and not from the crankshaft???
congratulations much like your videos do you explain step by
god bless you.
Hi, cab you share the size of the sockets and tools used? Mainly, fan retention bolts, crank pulley bolts and the belt casing bolts, and tensioner bolts. I heard the hex key was a 10. Thanks!!
How long shud we do the change? At what mileage?
Thx for good video. Why is it important to set the timing belt position so specifically prior to removing the belt, instead of just removing the belt at any position ?
Great Video-100,000 miles or 6 years to change. Is their a steel timing belt around to replace?
Excellent video. Much appreciated. Just changed my belt.

Used this for my Toyota Hiace - same engine (or similar) easy! Thanks for the detail - and the orange paint was in use all those years ago!
HELLO,i want know something...if i use to change that timing belt..,i forgot to pull that pin out of tensioner when engine start..what happens??
+Muhammad AKMAL You have to remove the pin . Basically , the tensioner is placed in a vice , the rod is compressed till the hole in the rod lines up with the hole in the body of the tensioner , then you fit in the pin ( you can fit an Allen key 1.2 instead ), when you fit the tensioner , you remove the pin , so that the rod moves forward and applies tension against the idler pulley , and this holds the timing belt in place .

Thanks guys for sharing, great video under difficult circumstances :)
Spanners by the battery is never a good idea!
Thanks for the video, nice and clear instructions! Just fitted my timing belt following this, many thanks 😊
is this similar to a Toyota prado 09 150 setries ??
Thanks, got my 2009 model week ago and learning about the vehicle, as to be prepared is always a good idea.
How did you "turn the Crank" to align the markings to correct position. which bolt is that? I this the Bottom Gear, the Crank Shaft?
Crank shaft, yes
Thanks for the education. I might needing this video for next week practical exam in don bosco makati
I like the assistant who help the mechanic he ruined little bit the video. But anyway thanks for the video a huge info to ours. Good luck.

Absolutely smick video boys! Explained every step perfectly and is super helpful.
🤘🏻
Glad you liked it!!

What was the name of the guy helping?! ;) Cracking video though, should save me some money soon.
Tony
Thank you guys it really help a lot
nice vid.
i think i would be reusing my tensioner again.
parts stores where i live never order one of those.
Красавчик!!! Хоть и не понимал что говаришь , но всё доходчиво.
calage chaine dustrubiton moteur toyota coaster
legends your are ,thank you from the land down under
Hi mate! Do you recommend to reuse the pin tensioner or to buy a new one? I just need to change the water pump!
Always best to change the tension if you can - its not expensive and you can sleep with a smile knowing its all nice and new inside your engine.... or is it just me that gets this feeling !
how long can I drive with the timing belt warning light how many km can I go
You can drive till it blows up. Then you can't drive it anymore.
Thanks for the vid guys, well done! Very informative.

Well done video.

My fuel filter light stays on after I replaced the filter.
What do I do next?
Good work am happy to meet you
Bad practice to use a battery as a resting place for metal parts and spanners...far too easy to arc the terminals.
Did this today...there is 2 marks on the Toyota genuine belt, to line up with the marks on both of the pulleys, which is handy. Definitely gotta watch how much to tighten the tensioner bolts, I snapped one off in the block but could get it out easily enough luckily!
Hi - sounds like you were unlucky - but lucky in the end ! Thanks for posting up your comments as this will help others !
Definitely a good idea to remove the fan too...I didn't and it's a pretty difficult job if you've got big hands.
13nm for tensioner bolts , 35nm for pully bolt
thanks for you information.
me aullado mucho gracia
Heaps good thanks guys
Very helpful.
I think one of them is called Tom.
good info...
comment faire pour avoir tous les explication en français
I also want my own Tom...
pena que é em Inglês, mas mesmo assim foi util
tbm acho, se fosse em Portugues seria bom demais.
are these the same Toyota they have in the phillppines let me know thanks
+pedro rodriguez most likely - i purchased my truck in Thailand !
CAN YOU TELL ME THEN ARE THER THE SAME FROM JAPAN THANKS
Just reading the comments after watching the video. You answered a question before I posed it because I bought mine in Thailand too, where I now live. We have a great Toyota dealership in Korat where we bought the truck and the service and prices are always good. So, no skinned knuckles for me this weekend.
THANKS BRO
what ratchet brand ?
10:09 halfords
Nice video
Thanks for the kind words - still cant believe how popular this video is !
Are these interference engines?
Yes.
You did not even torque the bolt of the tensioner housing and even the allen bolt its all mess job if one of those bolt becoming loose
Edit bits that is unnecessary, keeps the video shorter and more people engaged
