Toyota Tacoma has a very specific temperature range that the tranny fluid must be at for a accurate check. There is a detailed procedure to apply in order to reach that temperaature before checking. It's actually the most important part of working with that transmission. If the temperature of that fluid is too low you'll overfill. If it's too hot you'll underfill. This is critical, you're messing with a very expensive component in your truck.
Where was the temp check on that fluid before hitting that check plug? Woops!!
I remember when yousaid you were going to get rid of your taco. Glad you didn't because I get to learn from you how to maintain mine!
It is still going, the car I ordered is still a whole year away still. But for the time being I'll be trying to make more videos on the taco.
@@theoffroadingmechanic what did you order ?
Ordered a rav4 for the Mrs. Last year December. Then I'm going to get another truck.
Nice work. I learned how to drain and fill my Sonata through the level check plug, now it runs better than ever!
Instead of using the big pump you have, I bought a small fluid transfer pound. On boy, need 80-100 press to empty a quart bottle, legit workout lol!! ❤
Damn that does sound like a workout. As long as it gets the job done. Dunno if its a placebo but I do notice that it goes through gears alot smoother after just a drain and fill. Before it would jerk going through first through 3rd.
@@theoffroadingmechanic Same has been observed. And I overfilled a little more than what I have drained, Andy trans realty improved a lot. Maybe they do underfilled from factory?
I always heard mechanic's cars were in the worst shape because the last thing they want to do at home is car repairs. Good to see you don't fit that generalization. (I'll ignore how dirty your engine compartment was since it's winter in Canada). Also, your t shirt is making me lean toward yes on an Audi RS7 I am looking to buy.
Well when a customer tells me they bought a car from a mechanic my first reaction is what's wrong with it. Lol just because a mechanic previously owned the car doesn't mean it will be the best of shape and maybe sketchy repairs to hide stuff and sold it knowing it or the cost and time to repair it is too much. For me I'll always take care of my stuff. Hard to avoid dust and dirt on the taco.
I was taught that you always change the transmission oil right after you buy a car. A transmission oil change is cheaper than a transmission.
Use wool wax a better thicker protectant I would always add a little extra fluid from what you took out then run and check level
I do my 2018 Tacoma ever 30k drain and fill , so far I have done this 3 times. 1st time got about almost 3 QTS out , 2nd time little over 2 quarts , 3rd time 2.5 quarts. When I fill I always put in 3.2 quarts. Use my Ultra guage 1.4 to monitor Tran Pan temp. I wait until 100 F open up the overflow and wait till it's a trickle and call it a day. I can only assume the transmission cooler has something to do with the amount never being the same.
Did you pin the transmission cooler thermostat each time?
@@HD-on2eg So I use the Toyota Service Manual for there Techs AC60F is the document for transmission drain and fill and its states nothing about pinning the cooler. I have talked to some techs at my dealerships and some say do it and some say dont. Next time I am going to pin it and see what I get.
@@Danko88 I’m not sure at what temperature the thermostat opens, so I just pin it open to be sure fluid is flowing through the cooler and the lines.
@@HD-on2eg Put your truck into A/T temp check mode and just fill it properly at the correct trans temp.. if you're going to do it, do it right. its not rocket science lol
@@RoudyAudi25 I do put it in temp check mode. We were talking about pinning the transmission oil cooler thermostat.
I've heard those liquid anti rust coatings that be come a layer are bad as they also trap moisture beneath it and will rust the frame.
That would be the rubberized undercoating. Once it gets compromised it'll retain moisture and rot it from the inside. Where fluid film will stay liquid and clings to surfaces.
Oil based products that are applied annually won't.
Can you add an aftermerket trans cooler and delete the factory one?
The factory "trans cooler is also called a warmer" and has a thermostat that opens when it get to temperature. So I don't know if you can delete it.
Aren't you supposed to jumper the panel and get your truck in mode to where it tells you when it's warmed up? There's other videos that show you how to do that on what UA-cam. If you don't have your temperature right you don't want to try to level it until it's at the right temperature. And the truck will tell you if you put it in the right diagnostic mode when it's ready.
That’s only if you don’t have a scan tool to tell you that you are at 100 degrees F
how many miles were on it when you did the fluid exchange?
It had 50k kms so roughly 30k miles. Just a drain and fill.
Gotcha. I’m at 71000 miles, might be time to drain and fill for mine
So you do this for work? But not sure if that's a drain plug lol
Gotta make it a more dramatic video.
What about the filter?
Its only got 51k kms or 31k miles.
@@theoffroadingmechanic Wouldn't it have a fair amount of metal due to break in period.
Every automatic car I've ever owned, the brain trust says changing ATF filters is a waste of time
I noticed some videos the people reset the trans ecm my jumping a wire onder the dash for the transmission to learn the new viscosity. But i dont know if thats necessary. What do you think ?
I think the adaptive reset was on the 4 cylinder version of the Tacoma.
@@theoffroadingmechanic oh cool. I have the 4 cylinder.
Nvm for the 4 cylinder you need to do an atf thermal depredation estimate reset not a relearn. You need to use a scanner to reset it. That was what was different from the 4 cylinder and the v6
@@theoffroadingmechanic yep thats what they were doing. A thermal reset.
I thought the reason for jumping was to indicate when the transmission was up to temperature by going back and forth in drive and neuttral when it reaches temperature it will either start blink D or N then you will pull the drain level to get rid of the excess because of expansion of the fluid. Arent the transmission the same on the 4 and 6 cyl.?
