in theory, you would be replacing the same amount of fluid (make sure the replacement fluid is about the same temp as the drained fluid). However you are assuming that the fluid you drained out was at the specified level..If it is, you are good to go. If not, you are replicating the incorrect level. Use a scan tool, then you will know for sure.
I plan on doing my change when the car is sitting out overnight, along with the new fluid in the trunk -- both will be the same temperature in the morning and I will never start the engine during the entire procedure. QUESTION: Am I safe to do the drain and fill without all the hassle of temperature scanning , in that the volume of fluid in and out will be identical? Thanks, I look forward to your response.
Confused. You put the bolt back in the pan then the next clip after you remove the wheel cover, it's off ? Am I missing a step here (4:55 - 5:05) & (6:55-7:05)
If you know the car doesn’t have a leak, can you just drain whatever is in there and then add the same amount without using the scan tool? And what mileage do you recommend when to change the fluid ? Great video
Thank you for the great video. Can you estimate the amount of time it takes at idle for the transmission to reach 97 degrees F from 72 deg F (the amount of time from when you finished going through the "gears" to the time 97 deg appears on the scanner)? Can I do the check step without having to have the scan tool?
Yes you can. You need a thin Jumper wire about 2 inches long. Or a steel paper clip to jump the #4 and #13 pins on your obd plug. Make sure to turn off all accessories in the car. Now while keeping the brake pressed throughout the process. Turn the car on. Then cycle the gears from park to drive while staying in each gear for 3 seconds. (The next step is critical) you must now cycle back down to N and then immediately back to D, N, D, N, D, N, D, N, D (very quickly no pause, almost exaggeratedly) for about 4 to 6 seconds. If done right the D indicator will flash for 2 seconds. Place the car into park, Disconnect the jumper cable and let off the brakes. If the temperature is cold the D indicator will not be lit. Once the temperature is right the D indicator stays lit. If temperature is high D indicator blinks. You have about 4 min before the temperature gets to high so have both drain and fill plugs finger tight before attempting. Make sure to have fluid ready to pump into cvt as well
That is a great question. The answer is yes. The car would have to be sitting for several hours at a constant temperature of 72 deg F. I have never timed it because I always use my scanner. But it could be timed and you would likely fall within the specified temp range. Understand how fluid expands as it warms up. Now find someone who can time it as he uses the scanner. It would be most accurate if the same model car/transmission configuration is timed.
Did the fluid change resolve the issue for the customer? Totally amazed that max life now supports CVT FE, been using it for years and never noticed it had been added.
Yes 2020 corolla le 1.8 liter use FE ( Fuel Efficient) fluid and change it before hit 60.000 miles . Make sure get it from toyota dealers , some dealers sale for 150 dollars for 4 litter some sale for 118 dollars in Tampa Florida just go dealers to dealers to see who's cheaper
Are these alloy wheels came as factory fitted? These exact alloy wheels came as factory fitted with 1.6 and 1.8L variants in Pakistan and also side skirts came factory fitted. I thought these wheels are not available on North American variants.
I don't understand why you heat the fluid up and then drain it/check it. What are you checking it for? You didn't explain that part. Did you over fill it by two quarts? It looks like you're just letting the fluid drain back out again. Don't you need to add back in what you just drained out?
Trans fluid expands with heat...adding back exactly what you took out only works if the new trans fluid is the same temp as the old fluid. When I do this job I prepare the car the previous night so the trans is stone cold in the morning. Since I assume he drove it into the shop (perhaps after a test drive), the old fluid would have been above the ambient air temp. Therefore the test he performed is correct. One more thing: I would have removed the fill plug before removing the drain plug. In case the fill plug was damaged for any reason and would not come off, he has no way to refill the trans.
check this video on YT ...he explains these sealed or overflow type transmission and you'll understand the concept. "How to change your Toyota Sealed Transmission Fluid"
El fluido se debe camviar cada 60 mil millas, no se cuanto es en km y el filtro por lo general cada 100mil pero si cambias filtro tamvien tienes que cambiar el gaskit.
I got a ? I have 2019 with K113 I drive for living and I 152,000 miles on it now changing transmission fluid now bad or to late the dealership service my car every 5,000 miles never mentioned I need to change it
Because he drained hot and added cold the amount added isn't equal to amount drained. So he adds extra. At the 95 degree mark fluid is to be at top of that plastic piece. By removing the drain plug again the extra fluid will drain through that plastic piece until it's level with the top at the specified temperature. Ps. I'm not sure why much fluid came out with just drain plug removed if temp was below 95. My sense is that only the amount in plastic tube should have drained then remainder when plastic was removed. Only reason to not remove plastic immediately was to ensure removal of fill plug , in my opinion.
Funny how people don't watch the whole video and then comment about him not doing something. He did it by the book, folks! Nice job.
I liked the way explained it, better than other videos I've watched.
Thank you a lot.
@16:19 should you have let it drain a bit more? to avoid a seeping leak caused by high pressure in the system? I'm no expert that why I'm asking
You aren't wrong. There should hardly be a trickle coming out. There's way too much fluid in there.
I would have let it drain a lot more. But no worries about high pressure. The transmission has an air vent at the top.
Regardless, if you had a leak or not, wouldn’t you need the scan tool to measure the accurate temperature to ensure? Great video.

Perfect video! How often should I change the transmission oil?
60k miles

Good information. I would only use what the manual says on a cvt transmission. Genuine toyota cvt fluid.
Toyota doesn’t make their own fluid. They buy them and put their labels on the bottles.
Did the fluid change resolve the issue for the customer? Totally amazed that max life now supports CVT FE, been using it for years and never noticed it had been added.
Could you start by opening the fill bolt, then take off both the drain plug and the plastic one at the same time?
That’s how I did it… this video helped me… thanks
What fluid did you use? I don’t really drive my car more than 10k a year. 2015 and 92k-
Well done, the dealer wanted ~$650 for the job.
Dealer charge me 295 today
How did you get the other quart after you put the plug on
Does this transmission have that additional straw piece you unscrew like the 2016?
Just wondering, is the process still the same for the Corolla IM?
Does 2020 corolla le use fe fluid?
Yes 2020 corolla le 1.8 liter use FE ( Fuel Efficient) fluid and change it before hit 60.000 miles . Make sure get it from toyota dealers , some dealers sale for 150 dollars for 4 litter some sale for 118 dollars in Tampa Florida just go dealers to dealers to see who's cheaper
Gracias por tu video... me preguntaba dnd estaba la otra cantidad de aceite cuando saque el plug del oil pan...
Does this transmission also have the straw screw you remove like the 2016?
Yes, I didn’t take it out that’s why he got a little fluid out
My bad he got it 😂
Are these alloy wheels came as factory fitted? These exact alloy wheels came as factory fitted with 1.6 and 1.8L variants in Pakistan and also side skirts came factory fitted. I thought these wheels are not available on North American variants.
The LE model has these 16 inch wheels.
Does anyone know how much the drain plug tightening torque is?
Drain plug torque: 30 foot pounds OR 40.7 Newton Meters. Hand tighten the straw just until it stops, no more OR 2 Newton Meters.
At 7:11 the drain plug has mysteriously been removed again?
Always go genuine on transmission fluids dude idk thats my opinion i herd bad thing about those types of fluids you used
I'm considering using Amsoil cvt fluid - in your experience, do you think that is okay?
Use OEM specified, don't mess around
@@hjer731 You're correct. I put some Valvoline CVT fluid and my transmission is making whining noise even if it's shifting nicely. 2017 Corolla LE
@@SirD31V1Dwhine means it's low on tranny fluid...put 1/3 of a quart in..should make the whine go away
How to change the whole fluid ? (Not only the half)

Cuá ntos km tiene el corolla? Y el filtro de la transmisión a qué km se cambia. Saludos

What scanner u use
Does anyone have the part number for the drain bolt crush washer for a 2017 Toyota Corolla SE CVT? I have found mixed answers so far online
why cant you pour in the fluid through the dipstick tube?
This model and most of the newer Toyota models don’t have dipsticks anymore.
What's plastic Check tube for ?
@Icanfixstuff it allows you to drain fluid down until it reaches the top of the tube and that's the correct level at 95 degrees
I got a ? I have 2019 with K113 I drive for living and I 152,000 miles on it now changing transmission fluid now bad or to late the dealership service my car every 5,000 miles never mentioned I need to change it
ACTUALLY! Only a few will understand.
Dude you lifted it on the princh welds not even where its reinforced.
how many liters
Assumes transmission level with frame.
No filter change.
I'ma just pay the people lol. Knowing how to if needed is nice tho
i have a toyota cvt k411 . Where can I find out the amount of oil ejaculated?
Porn much?
Ejaculated 🤣🤣🤣👍 no trans fluid stick on tpyotas so no need for a handjob 🤣
Good video but I'll will also follow the directions on the Toyota Corolla service manual.
if you take out 2 and you put in 2, then why are you draining afterwords? simple math.
Because he drained hot and added cold the amount added isn't equal to amount drained. So he adds extra. At the 95 degree mark fluid is to be at top of that plastic piece. By removing the drain plug again the extra fluid will drain through that plastic piece until it's level with the top at the specified temperature.

Because oil expands when it's hot . So if you overfill the fluid will leak out when it's 97 degrees or normal.operating temperature.
Would you trust jiffy lube?
NEVER!!!
@@JaboTheMechanic CVT transmissions suck! I had 2005 Corolla 295k miles transmission no problems.
Still overfilled. U didnt wait for it to trickle😂
Man… that car is about to tip over on the lift
good boy 🎉
Toyota does not recommend replacing Toyota brand CVT transmission fluid except for taxis or other high use vehicule.
The car wizard insists the cvt transmissions should be serviced to prevent failure
this design is so bad, such a waste of new oil just to check the levels.
You forget the overflow tube. 😂😂😂😂 you didn’t do that correctly. Don’t do this people. This dude has no clue.
Did you watch the video. I did take it off
7:00. You have no clue how to pay attention.
He did it, watch the video again.
You didn’t even take out the plastic filler tube after the drain bolt. That releases more transmission oil. SMH. Definitely missed a step.
Yes I did watch the video. 7:00
Your mom
Open your eyes!😂
