Thank you so much for taking the time to make this. I have an XD, and I’m working on a few things before I sell it after owning it for 10 years. It’s videos like yours that give me the confidence to do my own car maintenance!
U welcome I’m glad video inspired u!!! Yup even I watch videos and find out more and learn more every day
Dude, informative and laid back. I like it. But you skip the part when you install the gasket installation itself.
Will make up another video!!
@@RBTheMechanicwhat's the auto number for that gasket too
I know just a little bit about cars! And once I seen oil leak I for sure thought I had to get rid of it! I also have social anxiety soooo taking it to service myself was hard to do! This video saved my life! Thanks brother
Nice glad video helped u
I just discovered oil in my plugs, im going to attempt this. Thank you so much for explaining!
Yup defiantly valve cover gasket required!! U can do it
I just want to thank you so so much, you saved me a lot of money I changed my valve cover gasket and all went well 🎉🎉🎉🎉thank so much🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Nice good job!!! Glad video helped u
Very good explanation of everything you need to get my job done right! I’m encouraged to try this!
Thank you 😊
Thank you
Thank you so much for being patient...
Great video, you have given me the confidence to tackle this job,
Great Video ! You make this look easy!!! I love my XB ! Been a great car! I dont have any oil leaks but I suspect PCV valve needs to be changed. I have a random rough idle when coming to a stop then it clears up. Or maybe a vacuum leak. Never had any Check Engine Lights. I bought this car new in 2009 so I know the PCV has never been changed . I will start with the simple stuff first! Thanks !!!!!!
Or could be throttle need cleaning
Pcv is main cause of oil leak.
Well explained Thanks !👍
You're welcome!
How much would it cost to get done at a mechanic shop? And thank you for this video!
No more than $190
@@RBTheMechanicthat’s good to know. Mechanic charged me $150 and I thought he was overcharging since online they said it should be between $100-$120
You said , "mostly 10mm" but didn't use another.. I'm gonna start mine today.. am I in for any surprises with missing sizes? Lol
Yup mostly 10 mm get 12 also just incase
@@RBTheMechanic I hit the store 2 hours before your response but thanks alot for responding. I wound up getting a 13 😭 lol .. needed a 12. Thanks for the tips! 🫡
@@Ohh_Is_That_Sooo...
Yo, a 13mm is wild. I have never ever seen a 13mm used anywhere.lol
What power tool are you using?
3/8 snap on electric impact
@@RBTheMechanic do you have a link in amazon? I have a 2014 Scion XB.
Also what kind of silicone should I use? And how much should I put? I'm confused by the part about putting silicone near the timing cover
Also what's the proper torque for the valve cover bolts?
Just like tiny bit like a drop it will level up the cover and engine block side that’s all it dose
I don’t know torque spec back of my head maybe u can Google it or I can let u know Monday I’m closed till monday
@@Alex-rb5fs it’s pretty low. Like 10ft lbs or 10in lbs. something like that. It’s lowwww
I just changed my spark plugs and the old ones had oil on the bottom of them, where it ignites. Would doing this fix my problem?
Ignites? U mean in the plugs once u take it out while plug will get soaked automatically so this would be the repair
So what's the two little O ring gaskets for?
At what time frame u see it
I gotta do the exact same shit to scion xb. My p0303 misfired yesteray. I have on 08 xb with over 200k miles. My question for ya is it ok if i hold off to do thisb in a couple days. I drive roughly 45 miles a day for work and back. And how much were all the parts you ordered? Thanks i liked and subd to you channel.
Well misfire means u need to change the coil on that cylinder and I would do the spark plugs. Plugs might be $89 coil might be another 90$ valve gasket might be like $55
Okay I got it. Thx
That might not be enough to save the car. If they been driving around with that leak for awhile they engine is already fkd up. I don't understand why ppl let their vehicles get so out of hand.
Yeah but the luck is with them lol still running
Those XBs are bullet proof with basic maintenance. I am guessing that car is over 10 years old with over 120k miles on it. In my opinion that oil leak looks bad but not to say the engine is totally gone. Just monitor the oil level and keep adding when needed. With the prices of new/ used cars now days it’s better to hold on to your current car as long as possible. Thanks for this video I gonna start my repair soon on my XB my leak isn’t that bad tho 🤙🏽
LOL, a leak is just going to go through oil and make a mess, but if they check the oil levels and keep them up, it isn't damaging the engine.
@@scott4825 lol, what are the chances that this owner has done what you have described? How many ppl drive around without checking fluids? You give the average car owner too much credit. Ppl are generally lazy as fck and won't fix something until its an emergency or until the vehicle is no longer operational.
@@malcolmjelani3588 They're Scion XB Gen 2 owners, regardless of a valve cover leak, they need to check it regularly.
I’m doing my valve cover gasket tonight and I see on the package it says wait 24 hours to cure so is that necessary for the dab of silicone where the timing cover meets?
I never waited but do so it’s just tiny spot that will even out
@@RBTheMechanicI appreciate the response. So what were the torque specs? I was t planning on doing the repair but I’m visiting family and I just took the cover off and I don’t have my torque wrench but I can gauge the force since I always use my torque wrench but any input would be greatly appreciated
@@E85_STI I can check tomorrow from shop
@@RBTheMechanic ok no problem I put it all back together already and I tighten them as much as I assume they were when I removed the bolts. I did going in a cross order and a quick question those two grommets it comes with is that for the long bolts that go in the middle of the cover? Also it’s says 8ftlbs 10ft lbs and 8ftlbs for the bolt sizes but I didn’t over tighten them but I did make sure they were on there good so I hope it doesn’t cause an issue with leaks because I don’t have my tool.
@@E85_STI yeah u should be good
Hello friend : would you please tell me how much should i tight the : exhust & intake cam bolts & crank shaft bolt for 2oo6 scion xa , 1.5 lit
Thank you for response . 1/ 17 /23 🫡🫠🙏
I’m home don’t have information till I get to work again
@@RBTheMechanic thank you sir
💚 🤍 🦁 ❤ . My wife went to dealer they gave her a copy of torque spacification . 47 lb for both IN & exast cam bolt . 80 for crank .💐
You didn't show us how to install the gasket and how and where to apply the silicone man! Thumbs down
Ok sorry
My 2012 xb takes like 5 minutes for the air condition to get cold..
Check Freon pressure it could be low on refrigeration
@@RBTheMechanic it has good pressure. It has 105k miles.
@@intelin123 could be hot air pressure
Probably measured high pressure side.
