Couldn't watch your video..the noise was just too much .. two thumbs down..
Nice video. One thing I ran into that others may hit. When I pulled the alternator out of a 2008 IS250 with 250K it was the original alternator. I knew about the bracket because of this video and others but I did not know that the original alternators have a wiring harness attached on the back. I accidentally pulled the connector to the starter solenoid out and the car threw a P0348 and would not turn over. Once I connected it, it was good to go. Be careful when you pull the alternator out if you are replacing the factory alternator.
That compressor though
Sorry, this looks so easy on video, but really cant get that back screw or bracket loose.
Amigo excelente video te felicito
Video was great help. One thing I did different was just move the ecu to the side took about 2 minutes didnt have to touch the fans or anything with the cooling. That 12mm bolt on the bracket was a complete bitch but with gods mercy I did it. 2am now should be done by 3. Lol I cant sit around with a broken down car.
Why Lexus engineer gotta make that alternator hard to pull!!! My 4runner is cake
Nice .I'm getting ready to do the same thing .great tutorial
I replaced my alternator on my lexis. IS250 but i didn't not remove the radiator cooling fun. Bro that was too much work.
Very good video, but tip, if you pull that plastic cover above the idler pulley that you took off, than pull the mounting stud for the cover on the corner of the cylinder head, the alternator will come out without draining the coolant and removing the fans. You remind me of how I started my shop, about 20 years ago. You have a good future ahead of you.
To make life easier I dismantle PCM from box & flop it over on wires toward engine. Once the plastic container for it is removed access is a lot better & alternator will come out without disturbing fan assembly. Still probably takes as long though. Just an alternative way. Thanks for posting video. Make sure that tin bracket goes back on securely as could be cause of fractured alternator.
Very easy job, Do not remove cooling fan assembly or even the upper radiator hose. Remove the nuts holding the front harness on the drivers side valve cover, prop it up then remove the stud that was holding it with an E6 socket and that alternator will slide right out!
Do u have to bleed the radiator because u unplug the hose
I ran into a problem getting it out going to have to remove one on the ac lines directly under the alternator
Great job bro. I did one of those today
You don't need a compressor or air tools for this job. 14mm 12mm 10mm ratchet extention a wobbly and aflat head. Come on now. Lol
Nice job! Very helpful, but the laying of tools/hoses/etc all over the fenders/bumper/etc will give me nightmares for a month!
