We continue our 600,000 Mile Lexus Restoration Project with a very important moment! This is the final mechanical repair to the car!
We do start with some change of plans as I have been spending some time in the background investigating some of the final leaks. The transmission we installed last week has been behaving really well!
Up next is a small break from the project then into the craziest detail video you'll ever see on RU-vid! Huge shout out to ‪@ChicagoAutoPros‬ for working with us on this project. Subscribe to their channel as well as we'll post joint content on this detail project as it starts in the next few weeks.

Thank you for your videos , I did exactly like you said, I checked for parts in 4 different Toyota places, and got different prices, so I went to my dealer in Victoria Tx ask them for parts on my 2016 Toyota Sienna SE, for Spark plugs , ignition coil, gaskets for the plenum, PVC, 2 VTT solenoid , and my dealer price was $ 2200,00 but I did my homework and told the dealer do they mach price from other dealers , and they said yes, so I gave them my list , and my list had a price of $942.00 for the same parts. So thank you car care nut , you saved me over $ 1000.00 ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷

Hello CarCareNuts! Today I did an 80k mile transmission service on a 2015 Mazda3 2.5l GDI. I'm here to comment on the removal of sealer from oil/transmission pans. I used a Mr Clean magic eraser. I eats sealer with no abrasions to the aluminum. Be aware that the magic eraser crumbles. Lucky I was working on the underside of the car and no debris entered the transmission. Next time, scotch pad.

Thanks for sharing all these nice and interesting videos about your Lexus project. I live in Bangkok and my brother-in-law runs a taxi business. He has 13 taxis, Toyota Corolla Altis all of them and a Toyota Fortuner (similar to 4runner) The Fortuner has nearly 250000 miles on the meter without problems of course. The Corollas is changed every 9 year and then have around 800000 - 1000000 km on their ODO. ( 500000 miles to 620000 miles) He just do ordinary service, no transmission or engine failure. In Bangkok the traffic is horrible it's hot and humid, so oil changes is done every 10000 km. No problem at all. Pure quality.

I’m now very excited about my car, and seeing this 600k mile LS430 in better condition than most 150k mile cars I’ve bought solidifies my decision among the many sweet JDM cars to choose from. I plan on bringing it back stateside to keep driving it as long as possible, it’s probably worth dealing with RHD and the km/h speedometer if they’re built this well. Very professional work for sure, which is unfortunately harder to find these days. Thank you for the outstanding videos and information.

@AnalogWolf 10 месяцев назад

This is a really cool look, thanks for showing this. With regards to the oil pan, it shows why frequent changes are needed as there is a surprising amount left over after a change. I wonder though: why is the drain bolt not at the very bottom of the pan where there would be barely any oil left over after a drain?

@cesardavrieux3767 10 месяцев назад

Yo pienso que siempre será mejor que quede en l fondo "algún" aceite, a "ningún" aceite,,, por más sucio que este esté, porque así se mantendrá una mínima película lubricante, de emergencia o límite, y "cebado" el circuito. Leí que está permitido "cierto" porcentaje (5 o 10% o algo así creo) ya que no contaminará ni ensuciará tanto al nuevo. TODOS los aceites de Calidad reconocida, llevan suficientes detergentes (en realidad dispersantes) para arrastar carbón, lodo, lacas, etc.) al filtro. y que allí se queden los más dañinos para el motor. Por éso hay que usar buenos filtros de calidad comprobada y no "cualquier cosa" que se parezca a... un filtro. Para lograr un 100% sería menester desarmar TODO el motor y limpiarlo a fondo (poco problable. caro e impráctico) para que el aceite se vea "limpio" al principio... ya que rápidamente se oscurecerá, si que está limpiando internamente el motor. Preocupante será que el aceite se mantenga traslúcido siempre o mucho tiempo, indicación que NO está limpiando los productos de la combustión adecuadamente. Por éso es que se cambia periódicamente el aceite, para retirar así los contaminantes) Siempre es más razonable reemplazar en término el lubricante, a posponer el cambio para "ahorrar"... (no se qué se puede ahorrar así en éso) Es MI pensamiento al respecto.

@abdullahipad7664 10 месяцев назад

@cesardavrieux3767's comment (translated into English), reads as follows: "I think that it will always be better that "some" oil remains in the bottom, than "no" oil, no matter how dirty it is, because this will maintain a minimum lubricating film, emergency or limit, and "primed" the circuit. I read that a "certain" percentage is allowed (5 or 10% or something like that I think) as it will not contaminate or foul the new one as much. ALL oils of recognized quality, carry enough detergents (actually dispersants) to drag carbon, sludge, lacquers, etc.) to the filter, so that the most harmful to the engine stay there. That's why it is necessary to use good filters of proven quality and not "anything" that looks like.... a filter. To achieve 100% it would be necessary to disassemble the ENTIRE engine and clean it thoroughly (unlikely. Expensive and impractical) so that the oil looks "clean" at first... as it will quickly darken, if it is cleaning the engine internally. Worryingly, if the oil remains translucent forever or for a long time, it indicates that it is NOT cleaning the products of combustion properly. That is why the oil is changed periodically, to remove contaminants) It is always more reasonable to replace the lubricant in term, to postpone the change to "save" ... (I do not know what you can save on that). This is MY thought on the matter."

Although I can imagine how much work and frustration this is. But it's so awesome to see everything done right. I'd love to see this series extend to other Toyotas. Like High Mileage Gen 2, Gen 3 Mama Prius. For many good reasons. 50mpg cars for one thing. Components like the Gas tank that are complicated. Maybe shortcuts, used parts, new parts, aftermarket and tips/tricks. I have a 06 Gen 2 Prius w 250k trouble free. Dailyed a lot. 50mpg avg. My younger brother did the Gas tank when it was a $500 assy. Now it's like $1500 or something. No oil burn. I've been just taking care of the suspension & swapping battery Cells. New Suspension, tires & H&R Coils. No issues. Love the car after working the kinks out. Control arms were rotted.

That’s unbelievable, how clean that bottom of the engine is, for that many miles? I’m impressed 👌

Ahmed, there is a Controlled Torque version of that Milwaukee impact wrench. You can fine tune where you want the Ft Lbs to max out that while fastening, starting at 70ft lbs and upwards between settings 1-4. Just wanted to share incase you didnt know 👍🏽

Just like Fishing & life, patients can be key to success. Love his approach to each & every job. Wish he had more Landcruisers in the shop.

If i would live in the USA i would buy the car after you are done with it! Even with the amount of miles, you make it run great again and done so much work on it. Great video's. Like them.
