I took my little girl and drove the 13 1/2 hours from NY to Homer Glenn, Illinois to have Ahmed and his class A team work on my 2017 Tacoma. It was worth every penny I spent and every mile I drove to get my truck done, PROPERLY! I will be going back next year for more service and to look around for a place to live. I would love to move there as Homer, Glen Illinois is 180° change from where I am from in New York, it’s clean and the people are polite and it’s just a great place to raise a family. If you ever get a chance to go out that way and meet Ahmed and his team You will see that he is every bit, the gentleman and professional you see in his videos. Fantastic people at TCCN Automotive.

I mean it’s not rocket science. Turbos spin at hundreds of thousands RPM and generate massive amounts of heat. Heat kills oil. Changing oil in the 3-4k range is well known. Simple google search will tell any consumer concerned about maintenance this. If you are talking about Toyota’s recommendation of 7500, 1) that is for normal conditions. 99% of people fall under severe which is 5k. Not far off, but the thing to remember with factory recommended oil change intervals is that those are designed to get you out of the warranty and that’s it. Well that can getting their kick back for less oil waste by the EPA and being able to tout a lower ownership cost. That said I love CCN for his no nonsense to the point videos that are simple and all inclusive. He’s the best.

In this video, he kept referring the entire timeline for maintenance in miles - so if someone is is Canada, do they convert the miles to KM or stick to the same numbers? i.e. take 5,000 miles as 5,000 kms. Cause it sure makes a big difference.

I bought my 2019 Camry new almost exactly 5 years ago. I've been following your maintenance guides and instructional videos for probably 3 of the years I've owned it since it came with 2 years of free maintenance. I'll tell you I feel so good knowing I'm doing everything I can to get this car to last as long as possible: engine and filter changes every 5k, air filters, transmission fluid, coolant, changed brakes and fluid and bled the system. I know I've saved thousands of dollars and learned so much from you so I wanted to say how much I appreciate it and thank you! She just passed 65k and got her oil changed and tires rotated, and she's still the best car I've ever owned!

I’ll share a short story, I replaced my power steering fluid on my 4 Runner, I drained it with a turkey baster and I replaced it with Royal Purple synthetic power steering fluid, I started the vehicle up let it run for about 10 to 15 seconds and it started making a whining noise and the steering locked up, I shut the vehicle off, looked inside the reservoir and it foamed up. So when I saw that I had to drain all of that out of there, but after I filled the reservoir back up, I guess there was still royal purple that got into the line and pump, it probably took about 4 quarts of Toyota power steering fluid to flush it all out. I had to use a turkey baster and suck out the reservoir probably about 8 or 9 times until it became cherry red again in the reservoir. Eventually, the noise stopped and the steering freed up again, so evidently I didn’t do any damage to the pump. I haven’t had a problem since. So even though Royal Purple synthetic power steering fluid is good I guess it’s not compatible with Toyota’s power steering fluid. So like Ahmed said stick with Toyota fluids. Something that should’ve only taken probably 20 minutes ended up taking about four hours.
@Glocktard

Ahmed, thank you for another excellent Toyota maintenance video. You are truly a public servant. I always say that FLUIDS ARE CHEAP, but ENGINES ARE GEARBOXES ARE NOT. My schedule depending on if my Tundra or 4Runner: Oil - 4000-5000 miles, A/T fluid - 60000 miles, Manual trans - 30000, ( I use Royal Purple syn fluid as it is GL4 and GL5 compatible. Do NOT use GL5), Transfer case - 30000 (I use RAVENOL J1C1125 Transfer Case Fluid DTF-1 - Full Synthetic (1 Liter) om the 4Runner from Amazon. Half the price of Toyota OEM, meets same Toyota specs), Front and rear diffs - 30000 (check the diff breather for proper operation. I use Royal Purple syn fluid), Hydraulic clutch - check for dirty fluid, bleed and refill as necessary, Brake fluid - use a moisture pen to check for water moisture in the brake fluid. Change if contaminated or dirty.

Mr car care nut I've been following your channel for quite awhile. I appreciate how you tell car owners how to maintain your cars and how to do and not to do to keep up your car. There's one thing that has never been mentioned that I think you should. A flat with all wheel drive card. I got a flat a couple weeks ago passenger side rear wheel. I do have a donut size tire for a spare that came with the car so I changed it. Took me 30 minutes no big deal, until I got 14km down the road my car told me wrong size tire on car high temp in differential pull over now . Too late by the time I stopped gear oil was leaking down the road . Had it towed to me dealership and as soon as I said I drove on the spare he said the differential was done. I've never heard and nobody else I know who some are not uninformed that you can't drive on donut spare tire all wheel drive. Had to change the differential it was toast and I was very lucky it didn't do any damage to my transmission too. I believe you need to make a video on spare tires for all wheel drive cars and not be driven on . I've looked all over RU-vid and couldn't find any videos about this but did find videos of the after effect of what happened to me with shredded gears in the rear differential.

Start keeping maintenance records. A lot of people don't. Date, mileage, service performed, part numbers installed, plus any notes at the least. Don't guess on whether it's time for a maintenance item. Know. A spreadsheet gives you something tidy and professional to print out. Keep paper copies of receipts with the records, especially for DIY, it's the only concrete proof that you actually changed those plugs. Obviously, keep receipts from that yearly inspection or other professional work. Your DIY brake job is a lot more valuable when a professional checked your work. Maintenance records are a powerful tool for maintaining the value of the vehicle should you ever care to sell it, and are crucial to getting those high miles.

I cleaned it myself every 16,000km because i watched your previous videos and the dealership wanted to charge me $1200 for cleaning the fan filter.I sold it in 2022 at 250,000km; no issues, all service up to date and the buyer was so happy. I bought a 2022 corolla cross xle and it is nearing 100,000km. I will take it in for a service when it is 96,000km. I will replace the engine oil, transmission oil, coolant, air filters so that I enjoy it problem freefor another 100,000km at least. Thanks AMD for this video. Serves as a reminder to me

In this video, he kept referring the entire timeline for maintenance in miles - so if someone is is Canada, do they convert the miles to KM or stick to the same numbers? i.e. take 5,000 miles as 5,000 kms. Cause it sure makes a big difference.

Ditto here. I used SuperTech conventional oil on my 2007 Tacoma and traded it in at about 200,000 miles. It was using a quart of oil about half way through the 5000 mile oil change intervals I followed. I'll be switching to Valvoline Restore and Protect when I'm finally the one doing all the oil changes on my '22 Tacoma. For the little extra cost per oil change, I'll be interested in seeing if it keeps me from using any oil after 100,000 miles.

One problem with staying with OEM parts while at your Toyota/Lexus dealer is they don’t always use OEM parts, especially oil…they use whatever they can get at the lowest cost. That might mean a no-name brand or a major brand. Many dealers around here use Shell or Mobil lube oil that is supplied by 55 gallon drums or delivered into a 500/1000 gallon bulk tank at the dealership. Same with transmission fluids and coolants.

I have an Independent Lexus and Toyota-trained owner who works on my 2023 Lexus plus I also have an Independent Volvo-only owner mechanic shop (open since 1982) that works on my wife's 2019 XC-40. We agree on the type of oil and filter to be used on both of them. I just had the fourth oil & filter change at 15,260 on my 2023 ES300h Lexus. I used Idemitsu IFG-5 full synthetic motor oil and a Highflow-Performance oil filter (2023 Lexus ES300h Oil Filter PG4476EX). GLTA! If you can find an Independent mechanic who only works on a vehicle that you own, then you are gold. Why, because like Ahmed, he or she was specifically trained by the OEM to work on your car. Research and a discussion with the shop/mechanic are essential before you allow someone to work on your vehicle other than the dealer. Your warranty is still valid, just keep your receipts and have a good lawyer that you trust to protect your warranty rights.

As a newish Toyota owner (2019 Tacoma TRD Pro), the one item overlooked is the battery. Be sure to check the battery terminals periodically for corrosion (DO NOT trust your the service tech to check/clean your batter during normal service checks/maintenance). This can solve/prevent lots of issues (ie, power loss, motor crank issues, motor stuttering, loss of fuel economy, engine power). If you experience any of these issues, check to see if you terminals are corroded.

Can you please go into detail or make a short video about oil weight? Or perhaps you already have? I don't buy the "tighter" tolerances line and believe that the EPA/CAFE regulations are pushing the lower oil weights. Also, since you're so involved with Toyota I'm sure you're familiar with the manuals of the same vehicles in other countries using a wide range of oils. For instance, I've seen Corolla manuals even with 10w-30 recommendations in other countries I personally have Honda V6 engines in my Accord and Ridgeline and use 0w-40 oil without fail and definitely think having the 40w is better on my truck in mountainous regions and towing/hauling when it's under load. My Honda truck calls for 5w-20 and the car 0w-20. I completely think that's probably fine for everyday driving, but there is no way I think 5w-20 is thick enough for the Ridgeline under serious loads while towing I'd just like some definitive input from someone who has likely seen Toyota engines and manuals from all over the world.

Genuine Toyota oils, fluids, filters, and other maintenance parts can be bought on-line through many dealership websites for much less than the over-the-counter dealership price. Most will ship for free for purchases between $75 and $200, or you can buy on-line at the discounted price and pick the order up at the dealership parts counter. And do shop around various dealership websites for prices as they do vary. For example I'm buying a bunch of oil filters for my 2017 RAV4, I visited three dealership websites and found three different prices for the same oil filter: $3.74, $4.64, and $5.97. I found similar price differences on the motor oil, air filters, oil plug gaskets, coolant, etc.

Also I kept receipts with the service book. 10,000 mile oil changes? OH H--L NO! Don't forget "Cabin Air Filters!" Change them when they're dirty or every 2 years.
