You can also get Valvoline MaxLife Multi-Vehicle ATF. It's a red container, don't get the blue.
Been using it in Lexus and 2 of my Toyotas, been flawless for years
I never realized there were magnets in transmission pans haha, very cool. Good video man!
You take pride in your work sir, nice to see. I drained the fluid on my ES330 and started to remove the bolts on the pan until I couldn't reach those few stubborn ones. Thanks to you, now I know how to raise the tranny enough to access those pan bolts.
Thank you for posting this, and helping all of us to be better DIYers!
Done like a boss!
Ozzstar thank you!
Excellent tutorial!
What is the size of pan bolts? I need to replace pan bolts. I need better information about this so I can get exact bolts.
Excellent video! Thank you
Thank you and thank you for watching!
Hello Brian, I have an 02 RX300. When I drive the car,it shift very hard,it feels like it kicked into gear, especially when come to a stop light and when starting to accelerate again, I feel the hard kick again.?can you describe exactly what it is ? Could be a clogged filter ? Thanks
Did you ever find if that was your problem? My car is going thru that now
@@corylee6158 I replaced a new filter, but there’s no improvement. So I sold the car,end of problem. However, I really like to tear the transmission apart,but didn’t choose to
Good working
Mine is a ES330. Would it still apply?
thank you for this video I hope for your next video a 2011 + rx350 and 2014 is350
How much is the transmission job
I have a Lexus 2014, model Es250. Unfortunately, I haven't changed the transmission oil, since I bought the car. The car is a single owner, and it currently has 180, 000 km.. The agency says that if they change the oil, they won't guarantee the transmission or the repairs. Some mechanics say that I can change the oil with no problems to the transmission, others say that it is a high risk. What can you recommend? Thanks!
Did you end up changing? What happened?
no I didn't change the oil@@ashuua2909
Hy brian,
I drained my 03 es 300 out and it is about 4.5 quarts. Should I still put back 3.5 quarts like you mentioned or should I put back exactly how much it drained out (4.5 quarts) ? Thank you.
I would put the 3 quarts in started up run it through the gears and then check the level. It’s a level is low had it’s a level is on the money you’re good to go. It’s possible he was overfilled.
@@HowtoAutomotive Thank you. I think it was overfilled indeed. I checked the manual and it stated 3.3 quarts.
Just kind of snug for the 18 bolts that hold the pan up? That sketches me out. I guess I’ll feel it when I’m putting it back up.
Would you Recommend Amsoil Transmission fluid or Toyota Brand
Toyota
I watched this think me and my dad could do this but after the first 3 minutes I think it’s best o take it to a shop😂😂
by the way i have the same vehicle and my mechanic said i should replace ALL the fluid (which would be 12L if im not mistaken). Is she out of his mind and should i just flush 3.5 L or should i take his advice. I have no problems with the transmission at all atm
Zack Salvatore I hear transmission flushed are bad for the tranny.. everyone I’ve ran into tell me if I do want to rid the old fluid out to do the drain and fill method. Drain old fill it, drive around for a bit and the drain again until it runs red.
My mechanic also advised against fluid flushes. Drain and fill is the best way to go.
👌👌awesome
Those bolts you took off on the control arm do you have to do Botha sides? Or just one
And on the next generation of Lexuses, they got rid of the dipstick, and went to a specific temperature window, because Toyota is freaking evil.
Where's the filter replacement
Very informative vid, but you forgot to list O'ReillyBreak Part cleaner for some of your audience with little to no DIY experience.
A part number for store-brand brake cleaner that only comes in one version? You're kidding, right?
You are insane. To remove those screws no need to do all of that. Ridicules!!
Is it the same for ES330?
MrMilanina yes it's the same procedure.
Where do you live? :)
Great how to video and car has a dip stick bonus my Lexus doesn't have one
Very informative step by step video. Thanks
The 4H has too much time left its up...
Thanks for this video, informative and to the point. I have an 03 ES300 with 181k and still running strong. I will change the transmission fluid and filter again at 200k.
Could you do the fuel filter for this veichle I have not found any video on it
All the U Tube Mechs.Are Saying ONLY Use The Toyota Brand Fluid From the Toy.& Lexus Dealers, But Seem to Be Distributers of the Fluid Themselves. Valvoline Produces the Type 4 SYNTHETIC Fluid & Toyota & LEXUS,TYPE 4 IS Shown to Be As A Listed Veh.Its Acceptable to Be Good For.
i was wondering the same thing. I was told Toyota only or u could develop odd shifting. Mine does that. Not sure whats in it right now so i'm changing it.
@@stevewilliams1009 I am not affiliated with ANY business. Period. I only use OEM fluid. I figure: a) for only a few dollars more, it's not worth the risk; b) the consequences of incompatible fluid is a can of worms that I don't want to deal with. I'm already saving a mountain of money by doing the work myself. I can splurge for the good stuff. Now, as for motor oil and brake fluid, there's no need to get the branded stuff, but transmissions are fickle beasts.
@@baddestburrito baddest burrito I agree 100%. My car is shifting odd from first second under a little extra pressure on the gas usually. I feel a issue coming up so I'm doing the change and yes I will use Toyota OWN. Not sure what's in it. But I'm told to changes it but not flush it then add a bottle of Lucas in it and see what happens. Saturday is my day 1/4/20. I will let this group know what happens. There are others having the same issue on here. Mines an 05 330. Thanks for your input and advice
@@stevewilliams1009 How did it go? My 06 330 is having same issues from 1st to 2nd basically
@@baddestburrito
pulled the rh cv axel and all my atf drained out. What going on?
Nothings going on. That’s expected in many cases. Typically one side will drain a lot and the other side might not drain any. I usually drain my ATF before doing my axles or have a bucket ready to grab it
Very clear and helpful
We just bought a car like this and the level is in the hot section even when it is cold. Is the bad?
Probably thermostat
If you changed the filter and cleaned the pan, how come you didn’t flush all of the fluid?
You aren't suppose to. That's a known fact
Steve Williams I just flush out about 10-12 quarts and don’t mess with the filter.
Very informative video. Nice work bro. Thanks.
Thank you for watching!
Is that gasket silicone or rubber?
Metal
Was this a transmission flush or drain?
Drain.
@@HowtoAutomotivethanks!
Great!
Can you use Toyota ATF WS fluid for 2002 Lexus ES300?
If you car came with T-IV, I think it would be a VERY bad idea to switch to WS, since the two are NOT compatible.
You people in Cali have no idea what its like to work on a car in the rust belt (Chicago here). Haha!
Why would anyone admit being from Gaycago?
narlycharley Chicago sucks lol. So glad I live in San Diego😂 that’s why my Lexus es330 has 220,000 miles and my 05 Land Cruiser has 275,000 miles. Not a bubble of rust to be found
Hi, where is your shop? I want you to do my 03 es300! Great job. Andy
Hi Andy my shop is in Encinitas California if you’re in this area.
cool Im in San Diego, what is the name of shop?
@@HowtoAutomotive
Andrew Shutty cool the Shop is called Coastal Foreign Auto Service
I tried to send this on your web sit, it will not go through.
Hey man, I sort of met you from a youtube video today. Andy here. I just bought an 03 Lexus es300, good condition, but I want to have some work done and a GOOD looking over by a professional like you. I am not sure what "needs" to be done and what to leave alone. Im and underground Foreman, excavators , dozers and dirt is what I know. I will be on the road tomorrow around 2pm. can you give me a call 858-864-6216 thanks. Andy
I have 02 Es with 230,000 miles NEVER Changed Trans Fluid!!
Cool, that’s why I like this generation ES330, it’s tough and dependable. I just got an 2005 with 60,000 miles on it. Was thinking of flushing the trans fluid but I guess there’s no rush.
TR808 With that many miles and never being done I probably would leave it alone.
How to Automotive why should one "leave it alone,” with 200,000 plus miles?
How to Automotive I have an 05 as well, 220,000 miles. I’m not sure if it’s been done on my car before , I bought it almost 2 years ago with 180k. Should I leave it alone? Ever since I got the car, it shifts kinda slowly /jerky from first to second. Rest of the shifts are smooth. It just feels like super reluctant to shift from first to second when I’m accelerating away from a stop or from low speeds.
Also I am in Escondido , just had my car serviced at Toyota Escondido. Do you guys charge less than $50 for an oil change /tire rotation? If so, I’ll start bringing my car to you guys instead.
@@805NAVE and everyone..... change it but do not flush it. changing is not harmful along with a new filter and some Lucas Transmission Booster is all. Flushing is a NO NO!!
Thanks lady
