I think probably all lexus license plate screws are the same, just like the oil drain plug gasket is the same for all hondas stretching back many years.

THANK YOU
You’re quite welcome!
@@theoccasionalmechanic4569 We are in Seattle, our gas tank was broken into. Fuel door wouldnt shut due to broken plastic bit. We went to the junkyard to get a spare cable using your video as a guide just now.
Great job! Sorry I didn’t record video of me taking off all the trim covering the cable.
Thank you for sharing the exact sizes of the sockets you used. Exactly the information I was looking for.
Appreciate it! Thanks!
you rock. this was thorough.
Thank you, kind sir!
Useful, but, I'm guessing there's a plastic engine undertray to remove first ?
There _is_ an engine cover for the bottom of the engine. I’ll try to get a video put together for it by, let’s say, next month or two.
It turns out, I only thought I was missing my splash plate. I confirmed with Lexus, that there is no splash plate covering the oil drain plug and oil filter. My mistake.
Very thorough video. I appreciate you putting this together for all to see.
Thank you!
Who is here in 2024? 👇
I am here, of course.
and what tool do you use. to torque
You use a torque wrench to tighten things to a certain amount.
what is cross thread
Cross thread is when the threads on one part end up misaligning with the threads on the mating part. The part goes in crooked.
Every time I get the oil filter they give me the wrong one I always ask for the motorcraft one and the give me the FL400s and my 2008 mkz uses FL500s and even the owner manual says it uses FL400s
That’s interesting! It must be in their system wrong. Which store is this at? Or is it from a delaer?
@@theoccasionalmechanic4569 AutoZone and my local ford dealership here in Florida, they both gave me the FL400s oil filter so I don’t understand.
@@theoccasionalmechanic4569 both AutoZone and the Ford dealer gave me the Fl400s motor craftsman oil filter but it doesn’t fit at all, but the FL500s does. And both of their systems show that it uses FL400s oil filter
Nice job! This is exactly what I was looking for! Need to take care of this on my 2008 Honda Pilot!
Thanks! May it go without a hitch!
Same method for a 2010 Mkz?
The method description is the same - not sure if the battery hold-down bracket and bolt look the same though. Probably.
Came back here to say that I used this video today to change my battery and everything went perfectly. Thank you so much again. I love my mkz, looking forward to more years together with this car.
Glad it helped!
Thank you for the video and the helpful replies to the other comments.
My pleasure!
For newer models eg 2018 rx450h - would it be more complicated? I have got a $2200 offer for it...
I took a brief look at Chilton’s manual and the process looks similar, but they do have some difference between 2018 up to 3/2018, and those made after 3/2018. I’ll take a closer look tonight and get back to you. But I’m curious, what is the $2,200 offer for?
After taking a closer look, there are some differences. The engine under cover is a bit different - you need to “remove front wheel opening extension pad LH” by removing two screws (I didn’t see a picture for that part, so not sure what it looks like). More importantly, they redesigned the coolant system and removed the Air Drain Cock Plug, so there’s no need for that entire procedure. Also, the amount of coolant required depends on whether you have an Engine Oil Cooler, and also whether you have a Rear No. 2 Seat. I suggest you go to your local library and see if they have Chilton’s manual online, like my library does, then you can see the procedure for yourself.
@@theoccasionalmechanic4569 Thank you!!
Nice one. Thanks 👍 For RX450h 2015 would you recommend 5W-30 instead of using 0W-20?
Chilton’s still recommends 0W-20 for USA. In Canada, 0W-20 for best fuel economy and cold weather starting, or 5W-20.
2003 Pilot, 237K miles...I used the SpeedOut brand to try and extract my air filter bolt. Didn't work, and also stripped the extractor. However, I didn't use any lubricant. I did get a grip with the SpeedOut, but I had to drill into the bolt with a metal grade drill bit first. The drill wasn't strong enough to extract, so I used a vice grip, and that's when the SpeedOut tip broke. I was able to replace the 2 rear bolts with new bolts, Honda Part #: 90091-P36-000. The rear bolts appeared less rusty, and seem to be adequate in maintaining enough closure on the filter box.
Thanks for the comment! I think it will help those who visit the video.
If the car that I’m changing the starter on, didn’t have a gasket for the starter but the donor car I took the starter out of has a gasket. Does it matter if I don’t put a gasket¿
I think i would use the old gasket, or get a new one. I think it might leak without a gasket.
Plus, I would double check that the gasket isn’t just stuck in place, and seems like it isn’t there.
Thanks for the video.
Glad to help!
Happened to me on my 2013 Pilot very sad set up with crappy cheap screws that rot out and get stuck great job Honda
If there was only a way to warn people! PB Blaster is your best bet. I’m really curious why they rust so much! Is it galvanic corrosion - a steel screw and an aluminum connector? There is a connector in the housing
Thank you for an informative and succinct video!

Thank you, saved me some money 🙏
Can’t get better than free at your local auto parts store!
Please do yourself a favor and never install an oil filter that way. They typically have the instructions printed on the box or the filter itself, and the instructions on the factory filter say to turn it until it seats (stops turning with fingertip pressure) and then turn it 3/4 of a turn further, and no more. If you overtighten it, it will deform the seal and leak, and then when it's time to take remove that filter, you might really struggle to remove it, or even shred the filter in the process. Just like spark plugs, it should take very little torque to install.
I completely agree with you - follow the instructions for tightening the filter that come with the filter. It looks like I tightened the filter 1/3 revolution beyond hand tight. This is less than the 3/4 of a turn you state, so I’m not sure why you think there is an issue.
Oh, is it because I tighten it by hand more than “finger tight”?
@@jonathaniwamasa6343 This should help clarify. It's from the OEM service manual: "Remove oil filter. To install, lubricate the oil filter O-ring with clean engine oil and then tighten the oil filter three-fourths turn after the oil filter gasket makes contact with the oil filter adapter." So you spin the filter until the oil filter gasket just touches the engine. Then you only turn it 3/4 more turn, even if it doesn't really feel tight. This will also help make sure that it's easier to remove in the future, and the filter cap wrench might work then.
I do see the chilton’s manual states: “Tighten the filter one half to three quarters turn after it comes in contact with the mounting flange (or follow any instructions which are provided on the filter or parts box).” But I do think my filter instructions said “hand tight” and a “little more” with a wrench. I try to provide the exact instructions as I find them, during any procedure.
iI looks like I tightened by hand about 1/3 more than first contact and then by wrench about another 1/3. So, 2/3 (0.667) beyond finger tight, which is still below the 3/4 (0.750) turn you state. Seems about equivalent to me.
great vid thanks! easy to see and follow!! nice work
Thank you!
Best
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this vid. What is the year of the RX450h that you worked on in the video? I have a 2013 RX450h AWD, and I cannot find the two engine block drain plugs that you showed in the video. There is a coolant engine bleeder that I find in the exact location (as shown in the video ua-cam.com/video/UWWWZ8sIdjY/v-deo.html), which is the same location for my 2013 RX450h. My 2013 RX450h also has a *white* petcock plug to drain the inverter coolant completely, even draining its reservoir. The yellow petcock will drain the engine radiator and the engine coolant reservoir.
My car is a 2010 rx450h. I thought 2010-2015 were all the same, with AWD having some additional parts that make the area around the engine block drain plug look a bit different, but the location was the same. I’m in the process of moving and my computer is packed up, but maybe I can get to my library on my tablet and see what the Chilton’s manual says.
Oh, yes, the petcock color could differ - it’s the location that is important.
I looked at Chilton’s manual for a 2013 rx450h, and the engine block drain plugs are in the same location as the 2010 rx450h (the car in my video). There may be more parts in the way for the AWD, but the drain plugs are in the same location.
Sorry, I couldn’t be more helpful.
Viktor G Automotive has a video of the same procedure, if you want to get a different perspective. I have a link at the end of my video.
Acetone will dissolve the plastic in your part and possibly fog the lens if it even gets near it, and the risk isn't really worth the cleaning advantage. Please use alcohol, adhesive remover, or some other plastic-friendly solvent on or near plastic parts.
Good tip!
Thank you. Thank you very much
Glad it helped!
The TRICO wiper available Jan., 2024, has no "B" adapter. It is called "A" unless the package was not packed correctly!! Afraid to break the parts, but will keep trying. Thanks for the excellent close-ups.
Thanks for the info!
It turns out that this one package was made completely wrong. I went to Advance Auto and they replaced it with the bag of adapters that included "B". Also, the paper instructiions were also the wrong ones. Correct wiper, wrong contents!! So, "B" worked!! THANK YOU!
@@aviekalker9713Well, problem solved!

Are you guys still having this issue? I found the solution
Amazing! What’s the solution?
Hey! We're all still curious about a solution to this LED headlight issue!
sO HOW DO YOU UNBOLT THE BATTERY TO REMOVE IT?
The tool I used is shown at 1:00. It’s just like a screwdriver, but at the end you can attach a socket, in this case, an 8mm socket. I’ve also got an extension attached, since the screwdriver-type tool wasn’t long enough on its own. You just put the socket on the bolt and turn counter clockwise. This is shown starting at 0:35. That wedge is the only thing holding the battery in place. After you remove it, you can just lift the battery out.
Could you provide me with the model of your scanner please?
The scanner in the video is actron model cp9550. It’s really old now, but i think i probably paid $45 for it. Not sure why someone is selling it for $450 used. Definitely a scam. I also bought an innova model 5110 at some point, because i had misplaced the actron. I see it at advance auto for $67.99, which is about what i remember paying for it. Additionally, if you’re cash strapped, i see the innova 5010 code reader for $41.99 at advance auto. Hope that helps!
Oh yeah this is how you do a how to video
Appreciate it! Thanks!
✌️ Promo>SM
Ha - what a tip at the end! I mucked around with my battery tonight, only checked it started afterwards. If my window doesn't work properly tomorrow I'll know how to fix it. Ta!
I have a 2011 mKZ if you change the battery do you have to reprogram anything
You might need a security code for your radio. Also, I found this note in the Chilton's manual: When the battery (or PCM) is disconnected and connected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the vehicle relearns its adaptive strategy. The charging system set point may also vary. The vehicle may need to be driven to relearn its strategy.
Punching that flat head to remove the washer worries me.
It just takes a little tap on the washer - no need to gouge the surface.
difficult to remove negative battery cable.... Ya that biscuit eater ain't moving....
Maybe you need a cheater bar, to get more leverage.
I bought some black iron pipe to use as a cheater bar.
Or, maybe use pb blaster spray to help loosen things up.
what size is your oil filter cap wrench ?
Oil filter cap wrench advance auto part no w54120. For all toyota/lexus/scion. tiny.cc/1wtcvz Also, buy Oil Filter Drain Tool instead of using plastic adapter, for a mess free drain. tiny.cc/8wtcvz
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to change my starter successfully and save about $500! I really appreciate the help.
Congratulations on your success! I was kind of amazed at how many youtube videos on starter replacement there was that didn’t actually show what to do.
Are those individual sockets you can replace, if needed?
It looks like you can buy the sockets for $8.81 from a ford dealer, but the diagram doesn’t indicate any wiring. Probably comes with wire that you’d have to splice on.
I ran into the same problem with my car. So basically, you have not uncovered a working solution to the headlight warnings?
I never did find a solution, but decided to leave them installed. Kind of torn on the issue, since I still have those warning messages. Maybe I should have installed halogen instead. I even tried Cougar brand led headlight bulbs, but had the same problem.
Pero me prende de nuevo la luz a mi en ese caso
If the light turns back on, it means you still have the problem to fix. You may, for example, have a part to replace.
Someone really monkied that oil filter cover on there before you huh?
Not sure why it stuck on there, but I get another shot at it tomorrow when i do my next oil change - this time with the drain hose!
