Appreciated the discussion of lift safety. In a previous life I was the technology education supervisor for a high school in a large northern school district. The lessons on lift safety were constant. I also insisted on complying with the yearly inspection of the lift used in the shop. The lift was initially shut down for a week because it needed repairs immediately. The school principal was incensed that money had to be spent on completely "unnecessary" repairs. The shop teacher was so happy as he had complained of the lift for years. Another problem were the students who just couldn't absorb how dangerous the lift could be when it was not used correctly.
Ray, Thanks for safety video so important, can never under state shop Safety
Safety
The age of violent video games has helped promote the idea of endless injury immunity amongst many users.
@@peted5217 That's a bit oversimplified, as there is no evidence to support that. I think it's more social media and internet anonymity that makes people feel invincible, because even non gamers can be complete safety morons.
Our local HS had a superb auto shop program 30 years ago when I did my student teaching there. Theft, vandalism, and accidents caused the Insurance rate to skyrocket, so it has long since been shuttered. Friend of my sons was unchucking a huge drill bit from the drill press when one of his pals thought it would be funny to flip the red plastic safety cover up and press the on switch. First dude lost a finger, school district lost 25k. As if it was their fault in any way. The decline in mental ability and character of shop students was thus the demise of a once brilliant program. Now, EVERY kid is College Bound, Right ? With the Student loans required, of course. And the junior colleges around here teach freshman how to deal with fractions. Talk about 13th and 14th grade. Good Grief.
Nobody wants to do a 'Wicked Witch of the West' reenactment with a car.
I would never service any of my Toyota's transmission with anything other than Toyota WS, period. Hat off to the customer and thank you for respecting his wishes
Can't lie, I giggled the entire time that the dead brake clean can rolled back to the supply cupboard.
"RELOADING!"
That was a long one!
Who did not dispose of that empty can ?
Could be the

👀 🤔 🤣
“The Empty Brake Cleaner Can Throw Never Gets Old”‼️💯😂😂😂💯
I did not know there was a washer fluid concentrate. I feel I just received a pro tip. Channel value unlocked!
yep, but total cost same or more, should be drop a blue pill, add water.
That stuff would freeze solid up here...plain water?? No beuno!
@@stevenbaker9327 I hear people in SoCal just use... water. Weirdos!
I’ve noticed lately across all the automotive channels that I follow that Toyota‘s, Hondas and Mazdas never seem to be in the shop for anything other than maintenance items. While Almost all other brands seem to be in for major repairs. I wonder why that is
Becuse Toyota parts cost more.
Problem with that statement is my celica has about 300k miles and almost no new parts none outside of coils, I cant lie it needs a new cat mine is clogged.
Because most of them go to the dealer for repairs! Go loom in any Mazda,Honda,or Toyota dealership they are full of them
Because the Japanese have PRIDE and HONOR in everything they do. They build better cars than anyone in the world.. wasn’t always that way. Look up DR Edward Deming
@@petersmart1999 The stealers are ripping off the owners with stuff that doesn’t need done. I work on my own Toyota most of the time. They do break occasionally, but parts aren’t that expensive and they are easy to work on.
Yeah, when he was at the last shop, I started to notice an absence of Hondas. Also, it seems like the modern Japanese cars aren't leaking when they get older. I'm impressed!
You are the sole reason i make sure i set it on the locks. Until i saw one of your videos a while ago explaining about it, it never occured to me. Not a mechanic but i have access to a lift if i need it and i imagine getting final destination squashed if i dont set the locks.
Yup... Don't wanna be a final destination plot for sure! =D
Hi from Scotland Ray . I fitted a new CV driveshaft on my Honda /Jazz last week . It broke a half mile from the house . I took 2 days to push it back home and one whole day to do the Job .
Getting under the car was easy , but getting back up again wasn't I am 64 and went to bed that night at 9pm ! 😬
Raymond, listen, that cartrage type filter case has a spring loaded drain plug. Take your 3/8" socket and losen the center plug. Incert the 2 ended drain it locks into the filter case, this will drain the oil out of the filter, you can attach one to a hose after all the oils out replace the rubber o ring, and put the plug back in the filters case, remove the case off the car pull out the folded paper filter and discarded change the rubber o ring on the filter cover case put in new cartrage filter. And reinstall. You wont spill a drop of oil on yourself if your careful.
Yes you do need to change the littel o ring. Here's why, rubber drys out, at some point its going to leak.
The case tightens untill it bottoms out. The plug has a torque spec. I just snug both up.
That is the intended way to do it. However, what happens is if you try to turn the center plug on the filter holder the whole case will twist off as one piece defeating the purpose of the drain plug. Another CZcamsr "The Care Care Nut" a Toyota master mechanic says they never bother with the center plug and do it as Ray did it.
I was wondering about that! I saw the socket hole in the middle.
Stupid design on there part I just remove the whole thing in one go
Hi Ray. On my Toyota 2GR-FE there's a standpipe in the transmission pan. You intentionally overfill the trans a little, run it to a specific temperature range (between 104 and 113 degrees), then open the standpipe plug to set the level.
3 of my 4 Toyota's have sealed transmissions, I've done this service several times, you are exactly right.
+1, the only way to get the proper temp range is with Toyota TIS, and look up the year and transmission. It can change year to year, and alldata, shopkey, identifix...etc should be double checked in TIS, IMHO.
Yeah, I was about to say the same thing. Also, on the Tundras with the 2UZ-FE got to put a wire in the diag port to engage the mode where the car will tell you when it's ready after doing some fast shifting between reverse and drive. Hope he didn't under or over fill it. A mechanic in Mississippi under filled my Tundra after a torque converter change and I ended up filling it back up. @TheCarCareNut has a video or two on this exact subject.
This makes me glad my two a25a's are hybrid. Just drain and fill.
@@6XGate My Lexus GS350 has that too. I did it recently. You watch the PRNDL to know when its ready. 2gr-fse /A760h I think in there. RWD/AWD setup. A Tundra would have an A760E/F, the 4wd xfer case is different. The sedan has an AWD x fer case that shares fluid with the trans
At 120K miles I changed engine oil and filter, transmission fluid, and tranfer case oil. Can't believe what a difference it made. Drives much smoother. I use Pennsoil ultra synthetic 0w-20 engine oil with a Wix synthetic oil filter every 5K miles. Next is a coolant exchange with new thermostat and radiator cap. I plan on keeping this car a long time.
Hey Ray, you can get what looks like a long screwdriver that has a 7mm hex socket on the end. Much easier to use on those worm clips without the worry of a flat screwdriver slipping off and going through a rubber hose. 😀
I love the Titan brand Oreilly flexible 5/16" and tiny little worm clamp size tool.
Reallly convenient, can be played with due to the flexible shaft wigglin properties.
The double sided socket is ultra special though, unique to the tool, does not work with quarter inch hex or quarter inch square drive.
It has a hex drive but it's inside the center of the socket.
That tool and the Titan brand carbide tipped gasket scraper. The scraper is magical. Remove RTV by just lifting it magically off the surface
By far its THE best gasket surface removal tool ever.
A real tech takes 2 minutes and makes stuff like that . . . a quick zap-zap with the welder and DONE ! That's what Ching-chong tools are for !
@@threadtapwhisperer5136 That's what I was thinking of, the flexible shafted 1/4" & 5/16" are so helpful. Unless it's a Mercedes that use 7mm...
I think snap o. Has a flex type long reach 1/4" driver screw wrench.
Besides ive got 2 screwdriver longer then the one he's using, I think these were made for setting points on older cars.
I got mine to push wires into grommets in the firewall to run power wires for car audio amps and alarm sirens.
@@threadtapwhisperer5136
Carefully use them by windshilds ive had the slap the glass almost breaking a window. The older rangers and s10s as well as an astro van had dash speakers too close to the windshild. One slip and you broke the window. Ive done it.
A not often heard "Well done" for the Toyota engineers for designing a drain plug that works even if it is not properly tightened. From what I could see, not a drop leaked out.
I thought the same thing. I work on Subaru's. They piss when the plug is left hand tight.
Lift safety is soooooo important. I know a guy that passed away because of a car flipping off onto him, shop had him using improper lifts for the type of car he was doing and he became complacent..car ended up getting shipped up to us a few days later to finish dismantling, could literally see which bolt he'd been on when it flipped on him..only positive was at least it was pretty fast.
You should see Raymond at home cooking an omelet, can of Pam, spray pan. Can empty goes flying acrossed the kitchen hit table leg.
NICE AND SHINNIE.
I learn so much from watching you. Even simple things such as pushing in the Toyota securing pins rather then pulling
The plastic nozzle and the little O-ring is for the drainage of the oil filter housing. It makes the oil filter change a little less messy. The little O-ring and the cap on the oil filter housing drainage is then torqued with 9 Nm. I think the oil filter housing holding the filter element is torqued to 25 Nm.
Toyota and Lexus have sealed trans units. There’s a plastic fill standpipe accessed through the drain plug that sets the level.
I never knew that u could buy "washer fluid concentrate"! One of my neighbours heard a guy "whispering" 4 help, while walking his dog. One of the other older neighbour's was under his car changing his oil without stands. his jack let go or rocked and the subframe was across his chest, he couldn't breathe. He got his own jack and lifted it off the guy, who was ok but scared.
Ray, you're still using that brake clean like someone else is paying for it. 😄
Someone has to keep the brake clean supply chain running smoothly.
Somebody else is paying for it….. we are
@@dantesinfernopurgatory7826 Someone needs to invent "Supply chain oil" Supply chain problems, no sweat! Just apply our handy oil to all of your suppliers and watch things speed up by 25% guaranteed. 🤣
Someone is paying for it. Shops bill the customer for supplies. DUH 😂
Fun Fact: He once said that even at his old employer he was supplying his own brake clean
I just use BG Full Synthetic ATF WS on all the Toyota/Lexus we service. It’s a great fluid and we go through the steps of driving the vehicle (sealed transmissions) recheck through the standpipe after the respective temperature readings. The Car Care Nut is an excellent reference for all things Toyota/Lexus. Great job Ray…
He forced fluid back through the transmission. When you do that you force metal and crap all throughout the valve body… why would you do that when ALL a Toyota or Lexus needs is a DRAIN and FILL. They’ve even made it super easy with a drain bolt and fill bolt. He is introducing contamination using his method. What fluid was in his machine prior? Was it compatible with Toyota? Likely not. More contamination. ALL THESE MODELS NEED is a DRAIN and FILL. 3-4 quarts every 60k or so. That’s IT.
@@topherd1011 You’re misinformed. The BG machine takes the fluid after its run through the screen/filter and exiting the transmission into the cooler. As the ATF fluid is removed, new fluid is being simultaneously introduced from the 2nd part of the tank. There is no contamination of metal or clutch material from the old ATF as that fluid enters the upper chamber of the tank. The old BG ATF does not mix with the old fluid. The best method is to remove the transmission filter and clean the magnets inside the pan. However, some customers choose not to pay for the extra labor. I’ve used this method on dozens of Toyota and Lexus vehicles using BF Full Synthetic WS ATF. It is a much superior ATF to Toyota/Lexus ATF especially in hotter climates like the SW part of the US. Rule of thumb is not avoid flushing a transmission once it reaches over 100,000 miles. Just a drop, change filter and refill.
@@jamram9924 Do you have any idea how many transmissions I’ve had to change at the Toyota dealer I work at in the last 10 years? I can’t even count them man. And do you want to know what the customers had done just prior to that? A displacement fluid change… by a machine. Each and every time. Never fails. I’m not saying they all will, but every damn one I’ve changed in the last decade had someone attach a stupid damn machine to them. “Guaranteeing the customer” that the machine “works”. Yeah. Guarantee for the cost of the fluid replacement. That’s about it. If they wreck your transmission they’ll just say “it was that way already when you brought it in, but I’ll tell you what- I’ll reimburse the cost of the procedure..”
They ALWAYS end up with me. And this could ALLLLLLLL be avoided by following proper procedure which was painstakingly researched by the manufacturer of the damn vehicle…which is to SIMPLY drain and fill at a decent interval.
@@topherd1011 We had the similar issue at our import shop. Many would go to Jiffy Lube and soon thereafter the problems began. BG has been around for over 60 years and they train their field representatives and also provide classes for many shops. Many dealerships use their products and follow their recommendations for flushing transmissions correctly using the correct ATF.
We were advised not to conduct any flushes after 100,000 for several reasons and one of them was no prior servicing of the transmission. Here in the Southern AZ, we recommend a flush every 50,000 or 30,000 of the vehicle is used for towing.
Our shop will not conduct a flush for any transmission over 100,000 miles even if we have their maintain their service history. BG has made fluid exchange machines for Honda/Acura. I know several Toyota dealerships that use BG products
The CCN services my 2 Lexus's and I live a 150 miles from his shop. He's a great humble guy and I'm blessed to have him as my tech since my cars are out of warranty. The trans service argument drain or flush will go on for eternity.
Just rolled in had a short today. Where a new guy didn't do a shake test before lifting a pickup. The back drivers side pad slipped while he was under the truck. He was extremely lucky it only dropped 3 inches.
I saw that! Luck was on his side today.
When it comes to all imports, you should always use factory Trans fluid. I don't care what bg trys to claim there fluid is not a substitute. Especially when it comes to cvt transmissions, it's not worth taking a chance.
Especially CVT's indeed. And for the Toyota hybrid transaxles only Toyota WS fluid, nothing else.
Yes this is so true,you can completely ruin a transmission by using an incorrect fluid.
I’ve heard countless stories about using aftermarket trans fluid in Hyundais making them shift very hard…
On Volkswagen you can not trust what they say.
I've used aftermarket trans fluid in countless cars. Never really had any issues. However, you must make sure the fluid meets the spec your manufacturer listed in the owners manual. I've used valvoline maxlife on Honda's, Infiniti's, Nissan's, Mercedes and others. Never had an issue. I used Castrol multi vehicle atf on a Santa Fe as well, no issues there either.
I guess it may also depend on change interval as well and what service is performed. I always performed drain and fills, never flushes as I heard flushes can cause issues. 3x drain and fill would usually do it for me
You have got to THE most punctual, kind and honest mechanic I've ever seen. Your video cadence is on point!
No, there are more of us. He just put it on the net, which is great most of the time.
Let's hope some woke sjw multi sex purple hair anti male nut bag doesn't go after Ray..
They have done it to a few wrenches I know and they were equally as goid as Ray....the videos do help to show he is a good and fair man....just saying man...is bad ...
I think Ray sees it the right way like most of us.
@Len H no dout there's more. A lot more!
I do not like where our society (in the US ) but it is going to get much worse after people like Ray, yourself and so many morally grounded folks die off - hopefully not for a long time.
Our children will have the right tools to do right by anyone's standards
Take care brother.
You need to watch Care Care Nut's channel and see how things are done properly.
Well yesterday was Die Hard 2
Today I learned from Ray that they make washer fluid concentrate..... Mind Blown searching for product. Thanks Ray.
yes but be careful it has no antifreeze so not for winter in most areas
Same here man😁
Perfect. You are a one armed tech bandit for sure.
Dear Ray! Thank you for explaining the safety aspects of the Lift. PLEASE, when you can, make a DETAILED VIDEO of the specific details. You know what to do, but the audience needs to be shown, EXACTLY, in super detail what to do. Really. We need to be instructed by an Expert. And then, everybody can re-post the video to You Tube, and maybe some Dummies will look, watch, and Learn. Hope you can do this. It deserves to get a million views. Safety matters. "Carefulling" in the words of Sarah-n-Tuned, lol! (hehehe). Do it!!
One thing that I have learned over the decades is it doesn't matter which industry you are in, there is no such thing as industry standard anything. In fact, the term "Industry Standard" is an oxymoron as far as I'm concerned.
For sure, Ray's diligence and high standards are not industry standards, as far as I've experienced.
2 post lifts work off cables, wire rope. If that rope busts then a car can fall if its not on the safty locks.
But other parts of the lift have fail points.
So my advice is get your lift matained and safty inspected once a year, and more often if its an older unit.
I watched at a Ford dealership, someone flip on the compressor, well somone left a lift handel flipped on, the pump type lift wasn't set up to pick up this van that was parked over it.
It raised up and picked up the van on one side, the van fell off hitting one other car shoving it into 2 other cars. Then pinning its selfe on the van so you could not let the lift down. The van was destroyed the 2 other cars needed a lot of body work.
Lifts are not toys, its a serious piece of equipment with limits and commands respect. If you don't know how to use one get training on it, your life depends on it.
Those cables balance the load they don't lift anything other then that your spot on.
I will not work on a vehicle on those lifts! I"ve seen more than one fall half off. 4 post only for me.
Many years ago I was under my 67 Pontiac Catalina Convertible when i noticed my floor jack starting to fold and fail! Dont worry though, I [did] some sweet ninja maneuvers and escaped unscathed!
Ray I saw one of those videos where a vehicle was driven onto a drive up to lift where they actually let the customer drive
up onto a ramp lift system and she drove through the whole thing and a repair employee was ran down because she hit
the gas instead of the brake. Why does it bother me that when Ray wears contacts he is not wearing any safety eyeglass protection? Always work safely everyone!
I was going to say that one reason the oil drain plug might have not been tight is that the crush washer might not have been changed. The one time I didn't change mine the next oil change the plug was loose. Maybe you didn't show it on camera, but it looks like you didn't change the washer. Just a thought. I have a 2015 Highlander with 186,000 miles on it and it has never had a mechanical issue and doesn't burn s drop of oil. Since I'm a ride share driver in San Francisco that thing gets plenty of abuse. Keep your posts coming you've given some very good and advice and keep s good sense of humor. One of the first episodes I watched you made an excellent point of why you don't pre-fill your oil filter. Thanks for explaining that......good piece of advice.
I loved the ending. I'd love to see an entire video with just sounds of doing things in the shop with mechanical noises. No talking. No narration. Kind of a mechanical ASMR.
That story of the guy getting injured could have been a lot worse, thank goodness it wasn’t . On a side note , it’s nice to see Toyota owners sticking with the OEM transmission fluid, he or she is obviously knowledgeable and passionate about they’re Toyota .
Ya and then he tossed in a Wix engine oil filter rather than Toyota OEM
@@Paul-kg3ub It's a Toyota, it'll run on Pronto or mighty filters and dreams until the wheels fall off. The older ones used a World Standard full synthetic ATF which would work with chevy & Ford too, but any DCT/CVTs I wouldn't stray from oem.
As long as the fluids are vehicle specific and not universal they should be fine. I prefer Valvoline myself.
maxlife is more than adequate
*their
Ray, as someone who is such a sticker for the direction of the oil cap logo, I'm surprised you're so willy nilly about the feet pointing the wrong way on your protective floor coverings.
I thought I was denied a good "flash of cleaner" because a youtube commercial popped up right as you showed it. But luckily, you did it again. I feel as though I can continue my day in peace now.
Who loves their job Ray does! Anyone that runs across the shop for new brake clean... BG should love this video despite not using their fluid
did you know that on most hose clamps the hex head where you used your long reach flat screwdriver will fit into a standard bit holder? Instead of slipping off with a flat head screwdriver, the bit holder will get a secure and tight grip and make the job much faster.
Hey Ray at 16:04 you went to set your rag down and it fell down into the car by the radiator!! Love watching your videos !!!
RIP. Shoichiro Toyoda. Thank you for your great work with Toyota.
I think he waking up to yell after seeing this.
I love your videos ray! The brake clean sound effects make all the difference!!
👏👏👏👏👏another great video Ray. Ray if you weren’t so far from us I would come & keep your shop floor clean for you free of charge. We always have ourselves a great day while watching you having yourself a great day. Can’t beat drinking morning coffee while watching Rainman especially today it’s raining here 🙂🙂
This retired old lady would do the same for you, Ray and Lauren, but California is a long way for my broom and myself to travel to Florida.
years ago, I worked in a service station that had a single-post in-ground lift. it had a safety pipe with a manual stop clip. the owner had a separate post (4" dia. with top n bottom 1/2" plates about 10"x10") made that we positioned under the lift and then there was no way it could fail. it was heavy, it was awkward to use, but it was fool proof.
great video, Ray. I look forward to watching, and always learn things from you. top o' the day to you and the Wife Unit!
I leave the Oils/Fluids on the plastics. Helps keep them from braking in time... or I spray WD40 on them. I have watched other plastics in the engine bay break from the heat and weathering over time.
Brakekleen will tarnish or break down surfaces, it is not called Plastic Clean for reason.
Way to go Ray, you've turned me into a Rainman junkie.
Gotcha!!
johnmyers, that needs to be put on a coffee mug. "Rainman junkie", I'd buy several.
Toyota has a specific procedure for changing the trans fluid. It’s drain and fill from the pan and the trans temperature has to be in a specific range. They specifically state that it should not be flushed. I know you have a contract with BG but you should always follow manufacturer procedures.
How do you fill from the pan?
@@DeepakKumar-lv4te Remove the driver side wheel and a small plate. The is a bolt plug with WS stamped on the head. This is the refill plug.
if he did this during warranty period, he voided the customer 's car warranty..
The "goofy Toyota clips" are exactly like the ones on my Yamaha. Push the center in, then you can pull the clip out. To reset, push the center out, put the clip in, and then push the center flush.
I have a highlander too, it’s nice to see the maintenance up close and personal. Rather then watching it though a window and kinda far away
Did you fish out the rag that fell down between the grill and the ac condensers on the side of the grill by the windshild washer bottel?
And we see another reason the Lexus took 3 days. Also the rotor /drum turning machine was outside by the compressor. So the short vid when we thought ray was fired again was way out of sequence.
13:48 LAMINAR FLOW! Destin of _SmartEveryDay_ would be pleased!
Seeing that dark fluid from the transmission makes me appreciate the dipstick on my mazda's trans, every time i check the level the condition of it is also seen
i like putting the oil cap in the hood latch so you cant close the hood unless you have oil in it. floppy dipstick would just be annoying
Great vlog with so many FIRST's Ray! Loved the FIRST undercarriage shot pulling into the service bay! Loved FIRST time seeing Ray distill his own blue washer fluid! Loved the FIRST time seeing brake fluid can roll all the way across the shop floor! Loved the FIRST time seeing Ray long-range pour old transmission fluid into the waste drum!
The safety built into the Wildfire lifts get my consideration for the day I build a garage on my property.
Short story: We had a component from Japan to install, needing a torque in Newton/Meters. Being in America, all we knew was foot/inch pounds, so we went to the Metrology lab for the equivalent setting (wasted 1/2 the day). Armed with the correct equivalent value, we installed the component ,,,,,,, AND looking at the clicker torque wrench, to our amazement, saw it had a dual scale. One foot/pounds and one newton/meters. Go figure..... Later on we found that most of the clickers had the same dual scale. Check your clicker, I'd be interested if yours has the same. LOL
he is not the torque guy, guess mostly.
Another fine video ray, honest and diligent mechanical work,all the best for you your business and your family Michael Edinburgh 🏴
Hit the like button for RAY he deserves it 👍
I kind of zoned out on this one, thinking "another oil change?" but it was redeemed in the final moments when you silently dealt with the button holds and went for the brake clean! GREAT! Thanks again for making, editing and posting your videos!
16:05 is what kept be watching. I wanted to see if it ever shows up again. ;)
Yep. You did clean it. 👏
I've never seen non premix washer fluid. I'm assuming it would freeze in not Florida scenarios?
I think its just blue die
@@Chris-mj9fq Or even blue dye?
@@leosmith848 what I Said!!! Other then auto correct changing the dye part but thank you for being my back up auto correct lol
Dye plus a bit of detergent. But only good for non-freezing temps.
@@Chris-mj9fq DIE Blue Dye!
I enjoy watching your work and usually don't comment. But I've never been a big fan of fluid exchange machines. Yes, I know it's quicker and time is money. I'm not familiar with Toyota's, however as contaminated as that old oil was, putting new oil in on top of old oil without completely draining, inspecting and filter replacement is troubling. I guess I'm too old fashioned.
That Fluid transfer music was awesome!!!
Awesome video 😊🇨🇦
lol 32 minute video only out for 11 minutes - shouldn't you watch it first .
It's scary to think that the drain plug could have vibrated completely out. I can just envision my wife calling to tell me the oil light had come on (after she continued to drive until the engine seized).
My wife things those warning lights are just suggestions to do something when you get around to it.
@@jaykellett2327 'what lights?'
No dipsticks. There is a side plug and a bottom plug with a removal tube (stand pipe that is the fluid level indicator ;) ) easy-peasy
That was therapeutic to watch. Certainly better than my stock market losses😂🤣
Yeah, stock dropped but interestingly dividend income from those stocks did not so much.
Whenever I did the oil in my car when I first bought it my dad would tell me that I put in oil not 710. He was just as picky as ray with the oil cap
I don't own a vehicle that says "oil " on the cap!...never have.
Just wondering if you would want to change the transmission filter with the fluid being as dark as it was, or does Toyota make it a pain to get to in these things?
Was wondering that too.
Toyota's ''Filter'' is so coarse it does almost nothing and isn't worth the misery...just change the fluid more often. That fluid was let go too long if it's that dark.
@@RadioReprised Good to know, thanks.
Honda does not list the filter as a maintenance item. When buying a new one, you have to give the parts guy the part#.
Whaaa whaaa whaaaa this is what i say to my students when "incorrect" ... best DVD:)
Enjoyed “End of Narration” Very cool.
I have to admit, those transmission fluid changers are pretty damn cool!
Most of the new cars and trucks have a thermostat built into the trans cooler lines and when you do it that way you are not flushing the entire system like in the old days. Just the cooler. You can't run the car on the rack and get it hot enough to open the tstat. Hence this is a scam. It is also not really good on the trans to flush them that way. If it was the manufactures would recommend it and they do not.
He should have changed the filter also though
@@stevesnyder4069 this is the Toyota recommended way to change the fluid though ..
@@waterloo123100 there is only a mesh screen in that trans.
A lot of people have them, but I am glad my vehicle I drive now can-do transmission fluid exchange pretty easy. Drain it and refill it.
Those 4 minutes and 6 seconds at the end I think it is safe to say is the longest Ray has ever gone silent in a video. He is a chatty Kathy.
I am working on cars while listening to a dude working on cars and the funny thing is I don't even like working on cars but was blessed with the talent to do it🤦♂️🤭 Great work Ray💪🏻 We use BG products as well and I'm a fan
Glasses and contacts definitely change perspective in sizes! Depending on the strength of your prescription.
Did you retrieve the red rag that fell between the radiator and the grill on this Toyota?
I was looking to see if anyone else noticed that too. think it was still there when then trim was put back on at the end :(
Shouldn't you test the brake fluid and the coolant with a test strip to see if the quality of the fluids is still within an acceptable range?
$90 if owner wants brake fluid exchange.
There was a video on Just Rolled In where a guy failed to set the second half of the rack because he was distracted on his phone, so he only lifted half of the vehicle. He probably lost his job for that. It was an SUV, so you can imagine.
Random side note, do you listen to Granger Smith, Earl Dibbles Jr, and/or Buddy Brown? If not then I think you should give them a listen. They may be your style of listening from what I have heard of your current playlists.
Appreciate the playlist. Reminds me of my younger self. Right on 🎉
Did I just see that tap water with blue die lol 😂
Did you return the Wife Units 10 mm yet? It is Valentine’s Day….
It’s a 10mm, he’d have to find it first!
This would make a great gift lol
Not saying anything about DG but I only use factory fluids especially in auto transmissions and radiators. NO EXCEPTIONS
i dont know if you know, but what ive been told (by instructions that came with the filter) you are supposed to drain the filter with that 3/8 plug in the bottom of the filter cap. problem is, they are almost always tighter then the filter themselves and dont come out. so there is no option but to get your hand soaked in oil
Doing those stunts with the washer fluid while having the Oil cap off...not my cup of tea I must admit...If this was my car, I'd switch to another workshop if I saw that. Entertaining it was, I give you that :D
he is more into entertaining than mechanic, otherwise views drop, if one watches for precise mechanic skills, try another channel.
Very rough and sloppy workmanship, oil cover open and you have washer fluid splashing all over the place, not professional at all. You could not touch my vehicle. I strongly recommend that you watch Car Care Nut's channel and see how things should be done professionally.
I strongly recommend you go take a Valium.
I had not seen the blue wiper fluid concentrates before (so you know it's good) 😊 I think I would have used distilled water though. My ride is 33years old and the washer system works like new. Most cars have clogged nozzles by that time.
I thought the oil drips were your signature on the oil pan because you are so proud of the work, you get the sharpy out and sign it.
I hear Camp Lo’s “Luchini” playing in the background at 8:25. I would’ve grabbed a mic 😂
"I don't have tooooooo" classic 👍 LoL, that brake cleaner can was on a roll 🤣
Bladder oil exchange machine is awesome.😊
Thank YOU, Ray. You seemed especially happy in this vid. I am glad for you!
I found a car resting on it's discs one day (rotors) slow leak! I always use the locks now.
Your "hellos" to the minor unit remind me of time spent in my very late grandfather's garage. :-)
I have one of these and love my Hylander
Love the sound effects Ray
I don’t know about others, but content creators like Ray have supplanted regular TV watching.
My wife loves her 2016 Camry . 2.5 4cyl
Thank you for doing things right. The dealership didn't tighten my mustangs drain plug and it screwed me.
my friend who is a mechanic was raising the lift when it came of the top it was a cheap Chinese one that did not have a lock on top of the screw that makes the lift go up and downand the car came down on side and wrote it off he had that one ripped out and replaced but he got away with not being injured, thanks for the video
I laughed so hard when you ran out of Brakekleen "Another" and the can rolling across the shop! Still love that Brakekleen sound effect!!
