It was so refreshing for the first half of the video to be an empty shop with ZERO noise. Shops are naturally loud and this one is no different but it must have been lunch break at the start. Great job
As an owner of a 2nd gen, it baffles me why they redesigned the oil filter to be such a pain in the ass to change
Where I work (which is not a dealership, BTW), we don't bother with draining the oil filter housing as you demonstrated; we just treat it as a standard filter and pull the whole thing off.
Your self restraint amazes me. I'd have been swearing fluently in English, French an German upon seeing such inaccessible plugs!
The “we’re gunna take care of you today” just goes to show how far being kind and curious to others can take you
At sixty k I’d of skipped the plugs and went with trans,diff fluid dump and fill. Transfer case if 4wd
I prefer the 4.0 V6 on my 2015 tacoma. Easier oil filter. Mine has 116k and is cleaner than that 2016. Do all maintenance my self. Also went to catholic school with nuns. Very good
3:37 And the Hardware holding the Spare up still Identifies as Hardware...
BONUS!!!
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Definitely like the long videos. Keep them comin! Giggity.
When you started the engine for the first time there is some spark action going on by the connector on the driver side.
When I had my 13 Tacoma and was on second spark plug change I had my mechanic nephew swap them for NGK IRIDIUM. The SA at our Toyota dealer told me the 4 litre would not run properly with IRIDIUM plugs...well guess what...it ran perfectly fine and IRIDIUM plugs should last 200 000 kilometres or even more. IRIDIUM may cost a bit more but the extended life is worth it and especially with engines that are hard to get at...like say a Subey Boxer engine for example.
@Mike that happens in fords and gms. Doesn’t really happen in Honda/Toyota at the 90k-100k intervals
@11:55 I totally get your "Don't drop it, don't drop it, don't drop it". You drop that bolt there, it may be awhile until you find it.
I lube the oil filter and partly fill it before I install it.
I put my wheel lock in the cup holder for a tire store, then they lost it after mounting the wheels back on. They said they would replace the wheel locks. That was several years ago. I'm glad I didn't hold my breath.
not too sure if you meant to say 6.6 or if you actually put 5.6 qts in the engine but they take 6.6 qts
so...what about the transmission fluid change? isnt that due at 60k miles too?
Should have been done at 30 or 40k. Multi drain and fill procedure with level check
@@mikeeeeee555For my C-HR the manual wants the fluid changed at 60k miles. I personally would do it every 30k no matter what, so even if it was done on this truck at 30k it should be time to do it again now at 60k or for the first time if it hasnt been done at all.
@@RexenPrime you have a CVT, so it’s a different beast altogether. The maker of the transmission, Aisin, recommends 2year 25k-30k transmission fluid service. Everyone drives differently but I do a drain and refill at regular intervals since it’s easy enough and I expect to keep my 3ed gen taco for many years.
Clean truck!! Someone please spray that chassis down with FuidFilm or something
First time ever I see the oil filter drain not stuck solid 😂. Mine never comes off in 12 years, it's like welded on, the canister is metal not plastic and I tried everything short of cutting it off 😂. Very good.
Yup, here is what you do, righted the little oiled filter drain bolt and you’ll get a small movement tk tighten it more, then back it out and it’ll come right off. Have had this issue on May Toyotas. Works every time.
Had the same issue. I had to use a universal filter wrench and it ended up crushing the canister because it was on so tight. A real pain in the ass.
Wonder why those tacos don’t have 120k long life plugs
@@DavidRodriguez-zg5db what does emissions have to do with spark plugs ?
@@DavidRodriguez-zg5db 😂😂😂 geez
what kind of activity on the cab air filter did you say?
Pull hard ;! Come easy;!🤣
13:20 he became Gollum from Lord of the rings
I have an 06 and that driver's side front coil was a real bitch to put back to connect.
The wax oil treatment, is that something your dealership does or will any Toyota dealer would do?
Just curious, when is diff fluid change due? Also, is this one 4wd? What are the major differences in the 60k service between 4wd and 2wd?
Every 30K I think.
I have a new 2022 off road . I am a high mileage driver and I'm at 30k now at 1 year old. I'm puzzled why plugs at 60K? Not being critical just curious. Are you specifically a Toyota tech? Meaning do you see alot of these trucks? Even the dealer is not changing plugs at 60k. I had 3 other Tacomas that ran very well with original plugs well over 100k. Those were 2.7's though. I watch all these vids online and I am completely confused about the service of these trucks. I do my own oil, engine and cab filters along with tire rotations. Always have. I just can't seem to get a straight answer on the fluids. Front Transfer case, rear diff, auto trans, coolant, power steering fluid and brake fluid. I plan on taking this truck deeper than I have in the past with regard to mileage. Can you share your thoughts on the fluid intervals I mentioned? I would appreciate your take on it.
I'd expect a somewhat heavy pickup truck to have disc brakes all around. Drums at the back seems kind of weird for a relatively modern vehicle, moreover from Toyota.
I thought so too.
Drums have more surface area for braking
Its more so too save on manufacturing costs but i agree it should be 4 wheel disc but drums do their job, most tractor trailers use drum brakes theyre even better for weight
Mag like light! 👍
60k you should be doing differentials oil change too and brake oil.
The only maintenance I do is the engine oil every 12k miles and air filters every 55k. Toyotas will rot out long before they blow up.
I didn't know a multiple point inspection with an oil change was MAJOR...I guess everybody can overhual an engine....
Just shows you that Engineers are NOT mechanics!!
13:15 If I were the Engineer that designed this engine, I'd screw with the heads of the Techs that need to work on them by putting in rigid coil tubes for the rear 2 plugs and a flexible tube on the front one just to make them fight with all the wires, hoses and brackets in the way even though they don't need to...at least the first time they pull the coils and plugs on the engine...after that, they'll know about the flexible tube and won't fight with everything all the other times they pull the plugs...
Yes, I'm Mean, Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil and somewhat Sadistic...
No, I don't care...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
That's a 60K mile gigitty goo
I thought those spark plugs were 100,000 miles plugs
Thanks for the video. Great information. Should the diff oils and the xfer case oils be replaced every 30 kmiles?
Not really, all depends if its under heavy duty, if not look up the interval. If no info is found I would say every 50k
@@customerstateswhat According to the manual that came w/my Tacoma, it is every 30k under normal driving. 15k if towing, heavy loads, etc.
@@jcreeker5581 I would at least inspect at 30k and change if needed.
Where is your shop located. Name?
What lube product did you use apply to door hinges?
What do you mean 5.6 quarts I'm pretty sure mine is 6.5 quarts to full
6.2 quarts if you have the tow package. The 5.6 he quoted is low for any package.
"WCBS-FM New York's Biggest Hits"
If you say it real fast,it might be a giggity....
gravy train
Dang, that’s a lot of rust for being that year…
Very good
This looks just like mine but mines blue lol
Also mine only has 30k
Also this one has way more rust.
See...not ALL customers are negligent slobs..lol🤪👍🇨🇦
Texas have men and women... NY has diversity. Lol
I would suggest you put on clean gloves before going in glovebox
What are those lines that are in the way of the spark plug on driver side?
prob evap lines
@@customerstateswhat they're not fuel lines? or are those metal all the way through?
Meow!
That industry needs more techs like yourself, that takes care when working on a customer’s vehicle.
First car I bought the service tech stripped my oil drain pan plug. Ever since I've never had someone other than myself work on my vehicle. I would probably let this guy work on my truck.
it's extremely rare to find a mechanic like this person. I've learned to do ALL maintenance myself.
Techs don’t get paid enough
What do you use to lube the latches and hinges?
Looks like CRC White Lithium Grease
This must be the "Director's Cut" extended version of the last two vids on this Tacoma. I remember that USMC medallion on the center console. This vid didn't have a counter for the number of "Very Good". 😊
You have observational skills. Very good. (1)
Nice job! I like the way you take such great care of your customers Tacoma.
I always install the bottom drain cover on the oil filter housing on the bench. This way I’m not fighting gravity with the o ring, I do a final tighten after the housing is reinstalled following filter and o ring change.
Why are we changing spark plugs at 60k for?!
It's funny that this is called a MAJOR service when it's basic 🤣
Surprised you changed the plugs at 60K. Usually you can go over 100K before they need to be switched.
@wisebar1 For the gen 3 v6 Tacoma’s the manual has 60k miles for spark plugs replace. I believe it’s for the dual injection (both port and direct) setup.
@@wallacemarshall I'm not changing mine until the mpg starts to drop.
A decent amount of surface rust for 60k miles. Must be in the northeast where salt is used?
New yorkers have mag lights, texans have handguns
Texans have no rust too
@@albo5106 can confirm
I live in SE texas , we have all the rust
Love that torque wrench with the cool lights and beep sounds. I'm still using my old 70's Snap-on QJR3200 "clicker".
I have a 2020 Camry with a transverse mounted V6. Changing the rear plugs on that engine makes this look easy by comparison. There are times I miss my 1973 Chevrolet pickup with a straight six and three on the tree.
So what was done? Oil change, filter and spark plugs ?
60k miles on a Tacoma...you have not finished the break-in period yet. 😂
You didn't replace differential oil, transfer case oil, or transmission fluid? 😮
I do all of it every 30k. Oil is cheap. Transmissions are expensive.
I have a question 🙋🏼♂️? So if that was a 60 thou k! When do you change all the other fluids? Trans, transfer case , dif .radiator fluid . Dam now I have to read the manual . Thanks
After cracking plugs loose always blow compressed air in to remove anything that may be down there in hole , most times there is corrosion on plug washer so when ya break it loose flakes sit down there and guess where it goes when ya remove plug if ya don't blow it out .
You tightened the oil filter housing by the metal drain plug. So the next guy that tries to unscrew the metal drain will instead get the whole housing to spin, and have a massive mess. Thanks. Why I do everything myself and can't trust service techs for the most simple of jobs.
ya its only suppose have 8 ft lbs on it lol. , , I don't even use that plug its a waste of time , just pull canister and drain er
The dealer told me 800.00 for spark plugs..
A total pleasure to see this service, ty for the sneak peek a while ago on this beloved and well maintained car and now the longer 60,000 mile service. I bet it is always a delight for you to service something that shows the owners love and attention and most of all decent human forethought to make it clean for you to work on. TY mate loved it as I also love and care for my investment and in return it cares for me by being a joy to sit behind the wheel.
Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🚗🚗🚗💖💖💖💖
You put the cabin air filter in side ways…jfc…should have rotated it 90 degrees
that plug is only to have like 8 ft/lbs never tighten filter with that use the cup socket , infact I don't even remove that plug just a waste of time .
Thats what a professional mechanic who work by honor looks like . Always does his best to send u on your way ready fir race day . Love the brake clean around oil filter
use a torque wrench for the sparkplugs is franckly ridiculous
check that again i saw some arching in one of the coils
Can you provide to clock counter number?
You sir are CORRECT! I see it at the 20:14 mark
Why replace spark plugs at such low miles, buddy of mine has a 05 tacoma orsb 2wd with over 260,000 plus miles still running like new with the original spark plugs lol. This is why I do my own maintenance and repairs on all my vehicles can't stand most of the shops and dealerships bs recommendation lies. especially with a toyota lol also kinda weird my 17 trd orsb 4x4 takes 6.2 liters of 0 w 20, change my oil and oil filter every 5,000 miles.
I agree, there are shops that are parts changers. BS. The 3rd gen tacoma oem uses platinum sparkplugs and change at 60k. Toyota doesn't put iridium sparkplugs, which go 100k. You can switch to them. Yes, 5k oil changes.
Isn’t the torque spec for the plugs 13ft lbs?
They should make an oil socket that has a bleed valve on it to control the dump.
FYI this motor takes 6.2 quarts not 5.6 quarts as stated in the video.
I though the sparks last 150k miles...
Transmission should have been serviced as well there’s no such thing as lifetime fluid people. Great job and video though
Totally agree
At 20:14 there appears to be electrical arcing just off centre in the area you had worked on on the drivers side. Any thougts on what I am seeing there? Thanks
There is a tag behind the connector attached to the harness. The other one going to the hose, not sure what to say lol. Good eye.
What does he mean by "wax oil"?
Does be mean wax or oil?
No transmission fluid flush? Regardless you do good work. 👏🏼
That would be a upsell service at 60k. I believe trans fluid is done at 100k. I could be wrong tho.
No transmission fluid check and talk..ugggg
Not at 60k 😁
Did you see the open spark on the end of the video on startup
Good mechanic, I'd trust him with my truck.
Thanks 👍
Wow, didn’t see you add any oil!!
Hello young man
I noticed your special tool, the hose.
Liked it so that you don't accidentally drop the plug in the hole. I used my own special tool, a stripes bass rubber hose.
I enjoyed watching your careful work on the well kept Tacoma.
Thanks for sharing.
What’s the spray lubricant?
Great video 👍👍👍
What is the current cost for a 60k maintenance on that?
That things looking a little rusty
I pull the 10 amp efi fuse in the fuse block in the engine bay and run it dry after a few cranks… then oil change…. Then crank, pump up oil pressure, put the fuse back in… then fire. It’s not absolutely necessary but I’ve had to fight chain slap in 150k plus vehicles on cold starts it then goes away. A small not widely known step.
Do we have to change spark plug in 60k really?
yes, some it's every 40k
It's such a good thing you are doing- documenting your slow descent into madness on UA-cam, for future technicians that may choose this career path to know what lies ahead for them
Man you would go crazy if you seen under my 2005 with 180k miles. Even more immaculate than this one.
Why new spark plugs at just 60k? The Denso Iridium factory plugs can last 120k or more (but I like to change them by then just so they don't get stuck). On a Tacoma at 60,000 miles, it would be better to change the rear diff fluid and the brake fluid if they want to put 300,000 miles on this Yota instead of changing the plugs at just 60,000 miles. Does Toyota officially recommend the plugs be changed at only 60,000?
for every vehicle with the 2GR-FKS engine Toyota recommends the spark plugs be changed at 60k
@@KevinLopez-ev4hh Yeah but the manufacturer is weird. They tell us to only change oil at 10k but we should do it at 5k. And for spark plugs it's the opposite. The iridium Denso plug's definitely last longer than 60k
Geez. 60k miles and so much Rust. Makes the undercarriage look like a 1999 Tacoma.
Would this be similar to a 150k mile service? I have a 2014 lexus is250 rwd and i know 150k is an important one, but I'm not sure what exactly needs to be done. I've heard mixed things about transmission fluid and coolants needing or not needing to be changed, but i don't want to pay for it if it's not needed.
Finally, we get the encore for the extended version of the few and far between times a customer is a good boi
Aren’t gear oils due to be changed around the 60k mark?
That's what my maintenance schedule says for my 18 taco with manual transmission. Front and rear diff, transfer case, and transmission
@@zakremele3588 That’s what I did, Since my 2019 is just a 2WD, I had the rear differential and the transmission fluid changed around 35K. I’m a fanatic about fluid changes and maintenance so I usually do stuff earlier then the recommendations. I’ll be doing mine again around the 70k mark
This is why I like modern 4 cyl engines, all of the plugs and coils are right on top of the engine. FWD V6's are easily the worst, you either have to rotate the engine forward (older GM) or remove the intake manifold (GM High Feature V6).
Especially turbo 4s, built to crap out right after the warranty expires
Bro ur the first I have seen that didn’t have to remove all those hoses and brackets when doing the spark plugs on the left side 😂👍 by the way what tool was that you use look like a water hose installing the new plugs? Thanks man for sharing 😅
