DIY Toyota Tundra transmission fluid change.
‘Sealed transmissions’ are anything but sealed. Anyone with a few hand tools and a bit of experience using them can easily drain and fill their ‘sealed’ Toyota Tundra transmission at home. This is the DIY version of the fluid service for the AB60F transmission.
Here’s a link to the Tundra service manual on eManuals online: shrsl.com/4hf61
As an associate, I earn from purchases.
These are the tools I used for the job:
On Amazon-
Transmission fluid: amzn.to/3EmtDWA
Plug gaskets: amzn.to/3UIVUMu
Laser thermometer: amzn.to/
Tube cutter: amzn.to/3tlarCr
Autel scanner: **no longer a reliable source**
These are affiliate links, I earn from purchases.
Hypertough transmission spout: www.walmart.co...
Vinyl tube: www.homedepot....
Lastly, you will need a sharp pick, a long handle ratchet, a 14mm shallow socket, and a 24mm shallow socket.

Thank you for sharing Steve. How often do you replace the transmission filter?
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos Год назад
Every 60k for me, but for a lot of folks those pan bolts can be a real bear. In northern climates they’ll rust - then break coming out. I’d leave those alone.

What would be your recommendation on this. 2014 Tundra 140,000 miles and don’t think the trans has had any services. I’m the second owner. This truck lives in California so no salt on roads. Should I do a drain and fill or drop pan and do everything? Thanks for the help.
@NutsandBoltswithTone
@NutsandBoltswithTone Год назад
@GFYM OK so this is a tricky situation because of the mileage. Personally I would drop the pan and change filter and fluid but. Sometimes when a transmission has not been serviced for a lot of miles and you drain the fluid the transmission has the potential for failure. I would still service it just giving you a heads up.

NEVER EVER REMOVE the drain bolt UNTIL you've LOOSENED the FILL PLUG FIRST. Gonna be a bad day if you've already drained the fluid and can not loosen or remove the fill plug. 👍 Also a drain and fill on a Tundra should only take 4qts max .Flush or any other method will take more

I’ll never understand the fascination with the WS. The heat range for Maxlife is better. Plenty of info on the net about this and now, remarkably, the price of the WS has gone down.

@joelin1384
@joelin1384 9 месяцев назад
If the filler bolt for reason can't be unscrewed, you can use a bottle rubber stopper and drill a hole size in middle that fit a vinyl tube and plug into the drain hole. Pump new ws fluid through the tube inside with same amount plus 1/4 quart that drained out. Because when you unplug the rubber stopper and screw the drain plug back the extra 1/4 quart to compensate for the fluid lost

You're very good at these videos, please keep making them! I want to do all the service and repair work on our 2014 Tundra myself - I get that mechanics are professionals and their work is valued, BUT I'm sick of being taken for a ride for what often ends up being half-assed jobs. This new video is great. But why didn't you remove the pan to drain out the liter or so of fluid from the bottom-most area where the magnets reside? To replace the strainer, too?
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos Год назад
Thanks Benjamin. I like this way for two reasons: 1. The bolts on the trans pan are known to get rusty and they break when you attempt to remove them. 2. I think a fresh 5 quarts of trans fluid every couple oil changes is more beneficial than the occasional strainer replacement. Because this job is so easy now, I’ll have time to do it more often.

That strainer really only stops slivers and chunks. The magnets do a pretty good job reducing the number of steel particles over time. If you get"glitter" upon popping the drain plug, further investigation is warranted.

1 correction. ALWAYS undo the FILL plug FIRST... otherwise you will have to turn your truck upside down to fill it. Also. When you do this COLD COLD COLD. use a little plastic 10qt bucket that has measurements on the side. Whatever you take out, simply replace. Saves the time of doing the whole temp thing. Foolproof as long as you dont mix up qts with Liters lol

Thanks for the video! I'm going to try this for the first time. Mine is at 130k, and if its not a recommended service, then I've probably never had it done by a shop. My question is, when you remove the overfill plug, is that old AT fluid coming out or the new fluid put in? Bc i know you're only replace 5 qts at a time and the system i think is 12+? I'm wondering if i do a second consecutive drain and fill, will i be replacing the new AT fluid or the next old 5qts?

Is it a good idea to remove the check plug before it’s reached 104°? I would think accurate level depends on waiting till you’re at the correct temperature.🤷🏻‍♂️
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos Год назад
As the fluid warms up, it expands. The expansion causes more fluid to spill out. So, if you remove the plug before the fluid warms up, it will just spill out some, but not enough. Once it has warmed up, just replace the plug.

@ToolDemos

Thanks. First Toyotas answer, according to them dropping the pan is not a necessary part of maintenance. In my opinion, maybe every hundred thousand miles or so, with a warning. The bolts holding the pan on, are known to get pretty rusty if you live in an area where rust is a problem. If you see that, I would stay away from it unless you were ready to deal with a lot of broken bolts.

Great video but I did find using a pump a lot easier. Yes, you spend a few dollars but it’s worth it. I also don’t understand the temp requirement. If you drain the oil when the engine is cool and put in the same amount drained, you don’t need to do the temp check. (The fluid temp is the same so same amount in that came out.) Just run the truck for a bit and shift gears slowly when done.

@HeyMikeyLikesIt2 Год назад
Wow, so many questions… Not to sharpshoot you at all. Can we remove pan to change filter and clean magnets? Can we just measure what we removed and replace the same amount? There will be an over spill either way. Doesn’t the amount we add get contaminated as soon as the new oil mixes? I’ve had it flushed by the dealership once in my 2010 Tundras 180k lifetime. I was thinking of having it flushed again by the dealership, then I come behind them and remove pan, replace filter and clean magnets. I see less contamination that way. I don’t see why the oil needs to be at a certain degree, maybe for expansion, but does older oil expand less or more than newer oil? I love this 2010 Tundra, and I’m going to drive it until the wheels fall off, then replace them.
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos Год назад
You can remove the pan if you choose, two things to keep in mind. 1: adding more steps to the job means you do it less often. 2: The pan bolts can get rusty and might break when you try to loosen them. As far as measuring the new fluid: 1: fluid expands with heat, so they have an established range to check the level. 2: relying on measuring the old fluid means you have to trust the level was correct from the last job and that you capture all of the spilled fluid. Hope this helps.

If you’re doing this in cold weather, it’s going to take quite a while for the D light to come on once you’re in check mode. I did this in 46 degree F weather, with a stiff north wind. It took about 40 minutes. I actually thought I did something wrong. The transmission temp gauge was about 1/3 of the way up when the D light finally lit up. I suspected the cold weather may have been the issue, so I feathered the throttle a bit to increase heat output. It worked.

Would you recommend doing the drain and fill if 110k miles have lapsed between servicing?
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos 11 месяцев назад
That could be risky. As you know, changing the fluid won’t harm your transmission, but it could reveal some wear that already exists. Sometimes higher mileage transmissions will slip after you’ve done the service.

Good morning question I have a 2008 tundra 5.7 V8 and I happen to get codes P0761 which states shift solenoid C performance or stuck off and code P2714 Pressure solenoid D performance or stuck off. My intentions are to replace those both solenoids,transmission filter/O ring and pan gasket as well as replacing the drain/check plug crush washers and almost forgot as well replace the fill plug O Ring and put in new fresh WS transmission fluid back in. What’s ur opinion on me doing this please?
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos 8 месяцев назад
OK here’s my opinion, take it for what it’s worth. It would seem to me that your transmission is high mileage and possibly hasn’t seen many oil changes. It’s likely that your transmission fluid is going to be sludged up at this point. I say this to get to my point, which is there is a high likelihood that your valve body is getting plugged up with debris. Sometimes, when that happens, it’s possible to solve the problem by flushing the transmission with new fluid, sometimes not. Replacing all that fluid could lead to other problems like your transmission slipping. Transmission diagnostics can be a very tricky thing and I am certainly not an expert. My recommendation would be to give the fluid change a shot, assuming you are willing to take that risk. If you still have issues, then consider taking it to a very good transmission shop to get a solid diagnosis.

Appreciate the response and forgot to mention that I used to b a tech for toyota so maintenance wise my truck is tip top including the tranny 😉. Did what I wrote n the first comment today it was a bit time consuming but I made it happen. All I have left to do is fill the transmission tomorrow with the WS atf fluid and check the level of it and am hoping that should fix my issue. @ least I got the heavy work out of the way today/tonight was going to fill it up tonight but the time caught and the flies started coming out plus I didn’t want to make a mess and not see what i was doing so tomorrow morning it is. I have 10 and 1/4 of another quarts n total so am hoping I have enough tranny fluid for tomorrow 😬

Would it have been better to just measure how much you drained, and then put that much back in?

@davidhughes664
@davidhughes664 2 месяца назад
I have a 200k miles 2008, no records of prior service before 150k. I've never changed the fluid, but was going to give it a shot. Not sure I understand your comments re "maybe leave that high mileage tranny alone or risk slippage with a fluid change...". Why would this fluid change have a detrimental effect? Thx, btw, great vid.
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos 2 месяца назад
When a transmission wears out, it deposits that material into the fluid. It’s one of the reasons why we change the fluid. But if you don’t change the fluid and just leave those deposits in there, it will do two things. One it will wear the transmission out faster. Two it will assist what’s left of the transmission to keep working without slipping. So if you change out that old oil the transmission will slip.

If you're measuring the temp with a temp gun at the pan, does it really matter if you do the grenade pin or not?

I did my fluid drain and fill today. I'm not sure I got a faulty transmission filler from Walmart, but the black connector only securely screwed on the ATF WS quarts for two of them. I ended up pouring the next quart into one of the containers that it fit - if that makes sense. I think next time I'll use the hand pump. Question though on drain amount, fill amount and Overflow check to trickle. I drained 4 quarts (just a tad below the mark). I filled with 5 quarts. However, what drained out during the Overflow to a trickle was 2 quarts?! The math doesn't make sense to me. Tests drive is fine. The transmission temp guage was at normal and no slipping. Thoughts?
@ToolDemos
@ToolDemos 4 месяца назад
Questions: Was the engine running during the overflow drain? Was the transmission temperature within the check window?
@alanaho4915
@alanaho4915 4 месяца назад
@ToolDemos yes the engine was running at the checked temperature. I did both the wire in the obd2 and confirmed with a laser temp (this was about 5 to 7 degrees different, my guess). The "D" was solid as I did my overflow drain. The trickle came then the "D" started flashing.
@sonar0085

Rule of thumb put back what you drained out, use a measuring bucket.

@bywayz

Since trans fluid volume changes as the fluid's temp changes, matching the fluids' weight might be more accurate than matching volume.

If you just spill the pan, all you get out is 5 or 6 quarts. The whole system takes twice that.
