I really appreciate the time and energy you've put into all your RAV4 videos. That's a lot for the few views you have received. But our appreciation is plentiful.
Man, I knew there was an easier way to drop the swing arm.....so I went to lab coat Paul here and boom, those 2 nuts and 1 bolt on the bottom sorted me out! Thanks LCP!! You do great work
Paul, I’ve enjoyed watching all your rav4 videos. I hope there’s more to come as I still plan on getting one of these down the road, and it’s great to have these repair videos. I was curious, are you a mechanic by trade? Or just a great garage mechanic.
That's definitely the way to do it. The fluid pump is terrible. I used a filler hose in this video and it worked great (watch at 26:56) ua-cam.com/video/-Z0DZOtxCy0/v-deo.html
Paul, here's a quick question, I've been following Your RAV4 videos, they are all amazing. But with all the money you've invested in the car and with all the pro tools you're using, why haven't You invested in a 2-column lift? It would make Your life so much easier and Your knees and back would probably also like it a lot :-)
I just did the passenger side seal on my 2001 Lexus rx300. I don’t understand why Toyota designed one side to where you have to get it floating in the right spot, rather than just having a lip inside the diff to push the seal up against. It’s a weird design. Even by hitting the end of the cv too hard when you’re re-seating the clip, you could potentially knock that seal in a little far and end up with a leak! I actually did that the first time I changed my passenger cv. And I learned that the cheap autozone seal is thinner than the oem and junk. Anyways, the real issue here is . . . are we potentially going to see a motor swap, or some serious engine modification in the rav’s future??!! 🙏
I am still waiting for you to make a video about why you can buy the front wheel bearing assemblies and hub lug assemblies. But yet, you can’t buy the rear hub lug assemblies! Why?
I don't know why. You can buy the rear wheel bearings, and you can buy rear wheel studs. The spindle can be re-used, and doesn't go bad over time. If your rear spindles are bad, you can get replacements from the junkyard, and press them in to some new bearings.
👍💪👍💪👍💪👍 у меня такой же только 5 дверей . В очень хорошем состоянии. Есть проблема- дуже тяжко вижимати счеплення та бере воно аж в полу. Можливо є якесь рішення?
I really appreciate the great videos from you, very informative. But about that joke, 👎 ⛔. We sometimes watch with kids around and that is the nasty surprise. It shouldn't have been there as it just spoil the good contents.
Hi Paul! Hope your doing great. I have a 1997 2wd Rav4, and can’t find the “Speed Sensors” 🥲 Can you please help me? I’ll be forever grateful! (Even more because you always do with your useful videos)

Thanks LCP!! You do great work
"...then gently push it in with a sledge hammer."
God, I love your sense of humor.
You are a wealth of useful information.
Awesome video...I need to change both CV axles this weekend on my 1997 Rav4🖒
=) great job ( put a long hose into the fill and funnel from the top of the engine to fill the trans fluid instead of doing it from the bottom)
Thanks! I'll use the funnel next time. That pump was seriously annoying. :)

Dear Paul,
Do you know if its possible to replace the axle bearings behind the seals without disassembling the front differential/gearbox? Thank you!
Wait dose the transmission share the same fluid in the transfer cases or is there 2 different kinds of fluids
Good Job Paul.
Great video! So do the two sides use different seals?
If you take off top cover off for gearbox you can pur like half liter per second. Pour 4 liters, take filling screw off, level it off nicely.
That's definitely the way to do it. The fluid pump is terrible. I used a filler hose in this video and it worked great (watch at 26:56) ua-cam.com/video/-Z0DZOtxCy0/v-deo.html
Great video, Paul. I've been following your RAV4 videos. Is it possible to make an ep on the evap canister? Thanks.
Maybe some day. Mine isn't broken at the moment, and I'm still working through all the things that are broken on my RAV4.
Are you going to do a clutch replacement video?
Not yet. My clutch is still good.

Paul Shpakov the reason why I need to replace the rear spindle. Is because the wheel bearing blew up. And it damaged the spindle so I must replace it.

You're right. It was in bad taste. I deleted that part from the video. Thanks for watching!
You’re awesome!
Hi Paul! Hope your doing great.
I have a 1997 2wd Rav4, and can’t find the “Speed Sensors” 🥲 Can you please help me? I’ll be forever grateful! (Even more because you always do with your useful videos)
If your RAV4 has ABS, you'll have tone rings and wheel speed sensors. If you don't have ABS, you won't have sensors on the wheels.
