How to change the oil filter and fluid on the 3rd generation Toyota Tacomas. This applies for all of 2016 and up. By just doing a drain and fill on a transmission, you miss at least half of the fluid that is still in the pan. Enjoy the video on my 2018 Toyota Tacoma V6 SR5 Automatic.

How many ft-lb for the oil pan bolts? I heard you say 65ft-lb? Or is it 65 in-lb?

@mysticjedi6730 Месяц назад

The filter is just a mesh screen. Only if varnish and sludge accumulate and you change fluid you should think about changing the filter.. Now that its done just do a drain and fill yearly and keep the fluid clean... I think i did a couple filter changes unnecessarily myself... you also risk bending pan, leaks...

@farmingtonctyesteryear8544 12 часов назад

Those 10 bolts holding on tranny pan are a PITA. They are threaded completely through the housing so the tops of them are exposed to weather, and gravity makes sure corrosion gets packed in tight. 4 of mine snapped, 60,000 miles . I snapped off N “easy out bit on one, so it’s a complete shit show on 1 hole now. Other 3 I drilled straight thought and re-tapped them. Easy enough but be careful on those 10 bolts

Hey bud. I'm looking for some input. I made a big mistake and I did a drain and fill with Valvoline Import, not MaxLife. I'm not nervous on what to do between a few drain and fills with OEM WS or take the chances on getting a full flush. I'm so sick to my stomach. I can't believe I did this.

I have a 2018 Toyota Tacoma SR5 3.5L V6. @ 36,000 miles I have a question and wanted to know if the same things you use work for mine as well or should I get a different kind of oil? Second question is what kind of transmission oil fuild do I use to change and what other things do I need to change also? It's hard to find real loyal mechanics so I came across your channel and hoping to get some help all the way from: Juneau Alaska

On your video, is that an aftermarket item on the side of your transmission? I believe this is a Tacomos. It kind of looks like an item that used to standard on the Tundra...I think it helped with cooling the transmission? Thank you for your help.

It’s bast to drain your oil into something clean so you can measure what came out of your transmission. That way you replace the same amount back in. Do a test drive and check it. And add if necessary.

@nastysoda9212 2 месяца назад

This isn't engine oil, changing all the fluid to clean is NOT what you want. The trans needs particles to fill in the clutch plates and help grab. Follow the maintenance manual with a simple drain and fill at the posted intervals. After 100k miles and you do this it will gives you tons of problems.

@92813justin 2 месяца назад

I agree but this is important to highlight why. When the transmission is brand new the oil is perfectly clean and still shifts flawlessly without any particles. When particles start to accrue over 60k plus miles and the trans is getting older people will start to feel the trans shift a little funky so they service it and that’s what you are referring to which “shocks” the systems and moves all the particles in a different place and creates even worse trans shifts. There is still about half the oil left in the system inside the oil cooler and lines. If you keep the trans is new like condition it will take care of you

@danielhuerta6575 2 месяца назад

That only happens when you flush the transmission. Yes old transmission fluid contains particles that grab, but changing the fluid and filter is doing better than nothing.

@christophermurray7027 Год назад

Hi, I am sort of confused. According to the owners manual, the transmission holds 10.7 quarts of fluid. However in a previous video you said you drained and added only 4 quarts. How much oil is taken out when you just pull the plug and let it drain? It’s obvious that only a small amount of the oil is drained whenever the plug is pulled. Wouldn’t this mean you would have to drain and add several cycles to fully change oil? Or can you just drop the pan and all 10.7 quarts will be removed? I’m so confused! Help! I appreciate it!!

@zacinnc78 Год назад

u cant drain it all out even when dropping the pan u might be getting like half of it (torque convertor is holding half of it too)thats why people will do multiple drain and fills (youre just incrementally getting more new to old ratio unless you actually do a flush)

@92813justin Год назад

There is a l out half of the build in the torque converter and trans cooler lines. I’m just performing the transmission drop and replacing about half of the fluid every 30k miles. This also helps not shock the system if your trans fluid was never changed.

@christophermurray7027 Год назад

@@92813justinThanks so much! So to reiterate, when you do what you did in this video, only about half of the fluid drains and you just replace that half? Thanks again!

@92813justin Год назад

@@christophermurray7027 yes, if you just pulled the drain plug you would get let’s say a 1/4 of the fluid out and when you drop the pan and replace the filter you replace about half of the fluid.

@I_discovered_civilization Год назад

@@christophermurray7027 to do a proper flush requires a fancy machine that qualified mechanics use, and it literally sucks out all the old fluid and pumps in new fluid giving you a full flush. The problem is finding a shop that does this and it usually costs something like $400. Most people don’t want to spend $400, so instead they opt for a drain and fill and do it themselves at the cost around $30 each drain and fill. But you will have to do multiple drain and fills, maybe something like 3-4 drain over the course of a month. You drain and fill and then drive it for a week. And then repeat the next 2-3 weekends. Or many people just opt to do it once every 30k, which isn’t really adequate, but at least it’s 22-23% new fluid. 5 drain and fills gets out about 7.87 quarts of old fluid. 4 drain and fills gets out about 7.009 quarts of the old fluid. 3 drain and fills gets out about 5.88 quarts of old fluid. See the law of diminishing returns? Going past 4 drain and fills only gets out 0.87 quarts.
