great info
Great videos. Love my element! Thx
Straight to the point, love it 🙏
You do not push the release tab out you push it in to release she is wrong on that aspect
Thank you so much!! 😊
Great video!!!
Exact video I was looking for my 05 Honda Accord is making this buzzing noise thanks so much appreciated 👍
And when you have a totally full back trunk and your car is in a tight garage it becomes HELL to try to get to that. hey lexus why did you forget the key slot like on a side door and every other trunk made? The UK version of the car apparently has one! Thank you again for the reminder of how- so much better than the manual!
Makes me feel like a fool but boy i want to take off that rentention bolt and inspect the fuel rail takes me about 90 minutes tire off EGR out all that.. maybe i dont have to but i still broke one and now the car is a paperweight till a used set gets here....ill try cleaning
Your video was a huge help! Your's is the best video on replacing the alterantor on a 5th gen 4Runner. You a100% right on the difficulty on the job. I also replaced my belt, that was also difficult to get it all lined up. Thanks for the video, you Go Girl!. Thank you so much for this video.
So glad you found this video helpful!! Great job on replacing the belt as well, there are SO many pulleys!
My key still won’t turn. Any suggestions on why
So the key not turning would be a problem with the lock cylinder/tumbler. You could replace it and have 2 keys (one for the door and one for the ignition) or you can contact a lock smith
Great instruction. Saved my broken latch. Thank you for making the video.
Good video. I’m getting ready to make this repair to my car and considered making a video, but you have it covered! Thanks.
Thanks 🙏
The video was a huge help! Left the dreaded bracket off on the replacement alternator. The 5 fasteners holding it in place are sufficient I figured.
What if the check engine light turns off when I turn car off. What happens if the engine stays running?
Fantastic video! Can’t believe this vehicle needed a new alternator! The vehicle looks new. Did you replace with an OEM Toyota alternator? Thanks!
This vehicle is new and did not NEED a new alternator but the customer wanted a higher output alternator for a speaker system + batteries he installed
For the upper water hose pulley-I took off the fuel line screw and simply moved it out of the way. Took me two minutes to get it off and no screws or sockets lost. 😎
Love this, thank you for sharing some helpful tips!
So the 1997 does Not have a removable sensor. I do however like your videos. They are pretty helpful.
WARNING: Do not attempt this repair unless you first have a right angle screwdriver with lots of different bits to choose from. I just performed this fix, so I know what I'm talking about (plus I'm Tom 'the Switz' with my own automotive channel). The screws to get the ignition switch out are in nightmare locations... very difficult even with the right tools. This video is excellent, but I guarantee you if you do not have a right angle screwdriver ... like the Pittsburgh ratcheting right angle multi-bit screwdriver set, and the correct bit, like CR-V6 out of the Warrior 33 piece security bit set (also from Harbor Freight) you will have a devil of a time. Best of luck!
Wow first video on this topic that makes sense!
It doesn’t work for every wheel and brake setup but it works a lot of the time! Also remember that if the front pad is low the back pad that you can’t see is often times just a bit more worn so make sure to catch them before you go metal-to-metal
Thank you so much for this video! I just finished this job on my 97 4runner, and your video was so helpful 🙏 😊
Wohoo! Congrats on completing this big job and saving yourself $$$
@@GirlieGarage thanks! I probably saved $2K doing this myself. It took longer than I hoped, but your video was soooooo helpful 🙏
Watched this once and successfully replaced my broken side view mirror on my 2023 Honda HR-V in under an hour! Great video!
Fantastic! Sorry to hear your mirror was broken on your new HRV. At least you were able to fix it yourself!
This is a great video. You have my thanks and appreciation.
Gracias muchas Gracias señorita 👍
They fixed this issue with the 4th gen Prius
Getting it off is the easy part. How did you get it back on?
I made sure the edge was clean, used a bit of lube, and gently used a rubber mallet to tap it in
@@GirlieGarage I ended up making a small kerf cut part of the way to the lip. That helped get it started but still fit tight and had a good seal. Thanks.
Thanks kid
No lies I was iffy on doing this, now you definitely made it look a bit easier, thanks for the extra details.
My mechanic trying to charge me $100.00 to do this I can do it myself😂😂😂😂😂😂
When parking on an incline, set the parking brake while the car is in gear. Let it roll back, or forward, and only then put it in park. This will avoid the difficulty of shifting into D or R when on an incline, as the car is no longer held in place by the parking pawl in the transmission.
This is a great tip especially for people who have a driveway on an incline or park on an incline regularly! Thank you for sharing!
@@GirlieGarageThanks. Your video helped me tighten up the parking brake on my ‘new’ 2003 Toaster.
Great Job😎👌👏😊
Wow amazing
Love the video ! Keep Up the good work.

Best instructional video I have ever watched on anything. Thank you for your time, talent and patience. God Bless!!
Thank you! I’m so glad you found this video helpful :-)
Called a shop last week to replace spark plugs on my nieces 2000 Camry V6 since cylinder 5 had a misfire. They wanted $320 since they said the upper intake cover would need to be removed. I laughed and hung up. I ordered brand new oem denso plugs on ebay for $30 and did it myself with the help of your video. The hardest part was asking my neighbor if I could borrow some of his tools lol. Thanks for sharing this!
Yes, unfortunately most shops need to take the plenum off to do the job (it’s rare to have someone who fits behind/between the plenum). Congrats on completing this yourself! I hope one of the tools your borrowed was a torque wrench 🛠️
@@GirlieGarage Yes. I have smaller hands, wrists for a guy I guess lol. It was actually really easy for me. No it wasn't a torque wrench. I just did the whole snug tight method that I have been doing for years with spark plugs. I definitely do make sure to use a torque wrench for things like valve cover gaskets and such.
Had a Question. We bought this vehicle and found out 2 spark plugs in the back were mis-threaded. I watched your bear hug but I don’t think that would work to re-thread. I question if I remove everything that the angle is going to require so much removal. What are your thoughts please. Thank you
If your spark plugs were cross threaded then I would remove the whole head and recut the threads so it’s done correctly. There is probably some way to re-cut the threads with the head still on, but you really have to get all the little pieces of metal out safely, you can’t let any of them fall into the cylinder
Didn’t help
Thanksssss
Every time I buy a new tool I use it for everything I can. Coffee maker? Coffee, tea, soup…bearing sleeves!

What is the name of the light bulp?
This is just a dome light bulb usually a DE3175
@@GirlieGarage thanks! wanted to put a colored light in there
Thank you!!!!❤
Great video! Now I always read that the pump you hear upon opening the door was for the brakes. No?
You do also have a brake pump on the Prius so it’s likely you’re hearing both (one from the engine bay and one back near the back seats by the gas tank)
@@GirlieGarage thanks for the reply
Thanks for the video it worked
Heck yes! Love happy news!
Hello, I am running my own business by the name of Noisegarage to do soundproof and bsr works in South Korea. It helps me to make a column regarding BSR to make people understand. Thank you. Let's keep in touch.
That’s awesome! I’m so glad this is helpful! Good luck with your business :-)
What bolt size fit in the drive pulley. Is it also m8x1.25??
this is the easiest mechanic video to follow that i’ve ever watched. didn’t over explain and did it right
Thanks for your informative video.
Same problem and new latch still didnt work. I went searching for videos and found that the metal piece that this latches on had to be adjusted as well.
Ouch! Glad you got it figured out, I wonder what happened to bump the catch out of line?!
