This is my first major engine job. The valley plate can be worked as DIY. The key is to take your time and remember where all things are supposed to be. Here’s the link below for what tools and parts are needed to do this job. A few issues with the 1UR-FE engine are the valley coolant, cam tower, and front timing cover leaks.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I just did mine over the last four days!
Dear, to give me an idea, please answer me, for example, how much fluid was lost in the last month before the repair?
Hello from Abu Dhabi, I just can't thank you enough for the excellent/detailed steps you posted on the forum, it gave me courage need to go ahead with the job.
Should there be visible coolant in the valley or is the presence of this a sign the gasket was leaking??
what year is your GX?
トヨタの2UR、AMGのM156、同じV8でもこんなにも違うものなのか、なぜヤマハはエンジンの真上にヒートエクスチェンジャーを置かなくてはならなかったのか、部品交換工賃込みでレクサスで15万円程度(アメリカの部品交換工賃込み価格は知りませんが)ヒートエクスチェンジャーも増産して初期より価格は下がってますからトヨタも分かっているんでしょうね、まあうちのM156の持っている持ち病の数々と比べたら本当に故障知らずのエンジンだと思います。
How in the world does that transfer tube even seal? Looks crazy loose.
Wonder if Hondabond would do a better job then the toyota rtv. I need to do this on my wifes 460 before it starts to leak. I have also read that its recommended to install a new heat exchanger while you're in there.
please share a list of part numbers of every thing that u used on this job.
I was honestly not looking forward to this job thinking it would be a pain, but looks like all you need is a little patience!
IDK why everyone uses SO MUCH rtv. Literally like 1/4 of this is all you need. You have 2 completely flat surfaces mating against each other. That RTV is going INTO the valley plate and cooling system now.
Crazy how this is common on 1UR, 2UR and 3UR lol
How did you remove the clips from the knock sensor harness
I’m coming up on resealing it, so do I install the new gasket sealant and torque it down right away?
What clip are you talking about behind the intake manifold? We got the fuels off but something is still holding it
How did you remove the orange fuel clips off the intake manifold?
So does this need to be done again and again since the sealant is the same as what they use in the factory and it degrades with mileage?
