Very well done. Suggestion never start bolts in aluminum with an impact wrench.

If you live in the rust belt area do not use a power tool to remove those pan bolts. The rust make it hard to remove plus they have locktite on them. What you see in the video is a rust free pan bolt which maybe ok but don't take the chance sine you can snap them very very easily. The pan bolts have a very fine thread and are not that strong. Use penetrating oil to free those pan bolts.

You are using ATF WS but it is CVT gear , should use CVT FE?

If you live in an area where road salt is used to melt snow during winter ,those pan bolts will have rust. Using a power tool to remove these bolts should be avoided because they can break. The threads are very fine and are held with locktite. They don't come off that easy with the rust so you need to use penetrating oil and remove these bolts slowly and only with hand tools. Put the pan bolts back with a nut driver to ensure it does not snap off.

Very good. Thank you.

For a 2007 the torque specs for the lower arm bracket are 95 nm for all four bolts. Bolts that hold in the filter are 11 nm. Transmission pan bolts are 7.6 nm (yes, that is what the manual says). Thanks for the video. I wasn't sure if I was going to have to disassemble more of the front suspension or support the lower arm when removing the lower arm bracket. Looks like it is just a matter of knowing the torque spec and then reassembling.

Suggestions, 1. hand start bolts only. 2. Measure what fluid you drained out and add exactly what you took out to avoid all the guesswork and mistakes. 3. Add fluid and test before you put all the covers back on in case you have a leak. 4. Honestly, I would just drain and refill every 40k and not bother with the filter until you hit 200 k. I drain my Toyota every 30 to 40 k with synthetic ATF. And I drive up and down the mtns a lot. 388k original tranny on my 2002 Sequioa.

Currently working on my Sister in law’s 2011 RAV4. When the car is cold, the ATF is between Cool and Hot. But after I drive it around, the level would be just above Cold…? Is this normal on this gen’s Rav4? Thanks.

I broke one of the transmission fluid pan bolts. How do I remove the broken bolt and put a new one in there?

Who makes Toyota WS fluid?

@kevinbradley9601 3 года назад

What a great channel and teacher. I'm just getting into my own car repairs/service and have a 2011 Rav. Have always been really intimidated by car repairs but this makes me feel like I can do my own transmission service. The Oil Filters on Ravs really had me intimidated until I watched videos too. Thanks so much

Thanks for the video. My son and I were able to repeat the steps very easily. We did not use impact wrench for any installation of bolts, but other than that we did it exactly as you showed.

@johnwilson3240 4 года назад

Great video! Simple to understand, with no unnecessary information.

@kevinkwangsuphwang3143 4 года назад

I have a RAV 4 too.. I watched this and will do the job myself..Thanks for the video Brian!!

You really did a great job on shooting and editing the video. Thanks for the content!!

Very good summary and video. Couple of observations I would make. Get the torque spec for the pan bolts and tights to that. Use of threadlocker make this less of an issue for you but I would put torque spec ahead of using threadlocker. Never start bolts especially those 17 or whatever pan bolts with a impact gun. That's asking for trouble. You cross thread one and you will not be happy. Get them started by hand then complete with gun. Lastly I measure the amount that came out and replace with that amount. Never going to randomly put in 4 quarts when maybe 5 or 3 came out and that amount was getting me to the proper level in the first place. Thanks for the tip on the cross member. I need to look at my 16 and 04 HL and see if that is there for those 2 bolts are a real pain in the butt to remove otherwise. Great tip! Thanks for posting!

Excellent tutorial with a very a good step by step explanation. I only wish Toyota would have provided the torque specs for all the different bolts. Thanks for helping me out.
