How often did you change the trans fluid ? I just got a 99 Camry with 231k miles as a secondary daily commuter and it runs smooth . I want to keep it that way too
I have a 2000 Toyota Camry LE. Transmission replaced, did fine for 3 weeks, then began slipping. You could never feel it go into gear, reverse or drive. I knew something wasnt right. Automatic transmission. Transmission was very soft, no response.
Would you change the transmission fluid in a 2000 Toyota Camry 2.2 with 201k. It looks like it was change a long time ago. And the pan gasket leaks. BUT MY PROBLEM IS THE TRANSMISSION PAN BOLT HEADS ARE VERY RUSTY,ROUNDED OFF AND SOME ARE GONE COMPLETELY. VERY ODD BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT RUSTY UNDERNEATH. OR REALLY ON THE BODY. GREAT VIDEO. MAKE MORE!!!
Hey brother, how much of a pain is a clutch job on a 2000 V6 Camry? i've done a clutch on a 96 honda Civic before but I'm guessing this will be much more involved. Any advice would help!
@@RustBeltAuto Your videos are pretty amazing. you helped me out alot with the civic transmission. This one is making a clacking noise, then when I press on the clutch pedal, the clacking goes away. does that sound familiar?
Hey man Im doing a parking pawl replacement job and was wondering if you could describe how to do it? Any help and info would be appreciated. Have a good day
If you can find a library with manuals, or Mitchell on a computer, that would be best for you. The dealer has to let you look at manuals if you need to too.
Currently have a stuck axle and stuck rack, rack bolts wont budge a mm, soaking them overnight in pb blaster. Hoping they will go then Its time to drop the sub frame. Any advise?
Jesse Urban using 2 prybars instead of just 1 to pop out the axle from the trans has always worked for me. Unless you are referring to the hub side? If you really need to, you can take the rack out with the cradle. It's just messy. Ps fluid usually goes all over the place when you take off the lines. Like it never stops dripping from everything.
The axle seems to be stuck in the transmission, the first side popped easy. I’ve try the 2 pry bars trick. Gonna try again in the morning. I hit the rack bolts again with some more pb blaster and letting me soak up some. I’d hate to have to pull the rack down with the frame, may have to though, I figure if I do I’ll use the impact gun to break them bolts lose on the ground. I have a feeling these bolts been on since 2000, figure I’ll anti seize them just Incase I have to ever remove the rack agai . I want to say thanks for the video, Im not a mechanic by all means but I’ll sure do my best to get this sucker going again. Most I’ve done was breaks and a starter, this will be a rewarding achievement.
People seem to have a hard time with that one axle. I have always gotten them out. Choiceless. More leverage ups the odds, and an even consistant jerking motion with 2 prybars works for me. you could try to turn the axle 90 degrees or something once in a while just to move the clip around in there too, maybe that will help. Most people take the rack out with the cradle. I just don't like the mess.
Hi, my Toyota Camry 1998 transmission need to replace because it die. I want to know what tools do I need to work on the cars by hand at home. I want to found out so I can go out and buy stuff to fix my car. It would be great if you can give me list of tools thnx.
What is the ear phones for. I assuming there's no heat in that garage. Where's the Boss!!!??? At least it's better than working outside in December 2022. When the weather is in the low 20's. When I'm in the car I put a electric ceramic heater inside. Works well.
@@RustBeltAuto How did you or if you did make the tinnitus go away?? There's usually no cure for it. My wife and I both have it. I ignore it. At nite I turn on a small room air purifier. Comforting. 👍👍
Also idk if you mentioned it because i dont have time to watch the entire video but the differential is separate ftom the gearbox so make sure you fill both because most automatic trans-axles are not this way! Ask me how I know 😂😂😂lol
@@RustBeltAuto Thank you for your response.. in that case, can I leave everything connected except the mounts and rack n pinion then remove the cradle if I use a support bar up top? If so I'll have plenty of room to open and remove the dif. So in a nutshell does the cradle hold anything else that's not connected to the engine.
Where did you get the s-shaped pry bars that you used to get the left drive shaft out of the tranny? That's exactly what I need to get mine out but haven't seen anything like that anywhere.
@@mattr3632 I put a big pole on it, and found something sturdy on a car to bend it around a couple times.. Heating it messes with the temper, and just bending it actually makes it stronger.
It really depends on the person, and equipment. It's a day job for me. Labor rate probably calls for about 7 hours as a good guess. Good long time if you're a noob.
That the way I did it. Those CV axles took me forever to get out. Then AutoZone sold me 6 cyl axle cv's, instead of 4 cyl., what a nightmare. He forgot to mention the diff. gets Dextrol 3, and the Trans. Tech IV.
@@RustBeltAuto 8th vin number is that what I need to look for or can I just call a savage yard tell them I have a 97 4cyl with auto and I’m looking for a transmission?
So do you feel that a '99 4 cyl camry motor will swap straight into a '01 4 cyl body? (01 has cherry body & interior, blown motor- just found a wrecked '99 with 50k miles.)
Hi, Do you think is it possible that to remove transmission with 4 regular jack stands or just jack front wheel? My 07 corolla has rear main seal leak, I want fix it in my parking garage, plus I don't have a shop car lift.
Way easier to pull the engine & transmission together. Its design to be taken out with the engine from the top! Thats why the engine has hooks on it from the factory!
tony tite I don't believe that is your problem, just because it is so rare for that to happen, have heard of it though, and if it is, you need to get the old one out carefully with a chisel, hammer, and probably a vise grip to grab it after you bent the crap out of it, or pound it sideways, and pull it out. Then you need to get a new core plug, put some #2 permatex non hardening pliable gasket sealant on it, and pound it in with a core plug, seal installer.
Hi I have a 2001 Camry and my transmission doesn’t go forward only reverse so I’m looking to change it and my mechanic tells me that there’s two types of transmission for my car type A which would cost me less to fix or type u that would cost me a lot more to fix how can I check what type of transmission do I have thank you
