I got 02 with 280k miles on it. thank you!!! for the vid very very detailed!!! so at least i know what goin on in up there. luckily mines just a residue and a drip at this point, but if it looks like in the vid ill know to replace. thank you again!!! 👏👏
I’ve got a 4.7 Toyota that threw the timing belt and now I got to replace the motor. Great video on how to take the back off. Too bad you don’t live close I would bring it to you
Got me a gx470 with this here motor. She startin to leak. Yup.definitely some drippage occurring. Once I discovered it I was like what in the tarnation is goin out round hea son??
Thanks for the video. The job is actually not too bad on these 4.7 engines. I bought a 4Runner not to long ago. I think my only oil leak is from the valve cover. I’ll have to check her out and make sure it doesn’t have this issue. She has 330,000 miles on her. I like to ride her hard and put her up wet. Lol
Great video! Really the only one I can find covering this repair. Any idea how it would change for a 4wd Sequoia with the rear differential attached to the transmission? Thank you!
Just a transfer case behind the transmission and a front driveshaft if I had to guess probably not too bad these vehicles have a lot of space under them👍
about to do this same job on my 2007 sequoia, thanks for the video. I wanna replace the transmission filter and put fresh fluid in it. it has 285k on it and people have told me that i shouldn't change the fluid. what do you think?
I cut my teeth as a mechanic in a transmission shop and we serviced transmissions all day long with no issues. However over the years as transmissions have evolved I have heard horror stories of transmissions working and after a service they give trouble? so in my mind it wouldn't hurt a thing but there is that chance? Thanks for the comment
Thank you for this great video. I’m trying to track down the O ring but don’t know the part number or what it’s called, any help would be appreciated greatly.
I don’t have the numbers however I get 90% of my parts from O’Reillys and they are normally right on spot I do know that the kit I got was a felpro kit👍
@@ChristmanGarage photos or it didn't happen. I know a lot of MASTER techs that work for dealerships, Fel Pro is the worst to use on a Toyota or anything that is not a GM engine. Fail-Pro works great on GM engines. I've seen it time and time again. You got LUCKY if that thing held up, but like I said pics or it didn't happen
@@Braapcity next time I work on it I will get some pics it’s a friend of mines, but I will say I own a 2005 Toyota highlander with 330k miles and I have replaced valve cover gaskets with spark plug hole seals and front timing cover seals with no issues either?? Maybe I’m just lucky. I do value Master mechanics opinions especially the ones who work on only a specific vehicle all the time because they see it first hand! Once again thanks for the comment I’m always open to criticism 👍
