Can I just give the engine # for my Lexus at Toyota local parts dealer? VIN would show Lexus & a higher price like for PCV, oil filter etc.
What's your opinion on 2010 tru 2012 rav4 awd base model .
Thank you for a great helpful video!
Hi, when does the 12V battery get charged on a Toyota Hybrid? I have a 2021 Venza and Highlander hybrid. Thanks!
AMD, you may wanna double your VIN censorship at mark 16:26 the one right next to Home >
That was super helpful and insightful….. I’ve suffered as a DIY. No more.
What’s your opinion on Honda?
avoiding counterfeits – millions out there
Toyota OEM oil filters at our local Walmart cost more than the dealer.
Dude, please tell me why Toyota would put the PCV-valve in such an impossible location on the 2ARFE engines.
I have a 2007 Tundta, 5.7 Limited with 194k miles and I live in Arizona. I have kept my tires PSI at the recommended door jamb pressure (30 / 33). Today the tires were rotated and balanced and they filled the tires to 35 PSI. It was their recommendation to keep all 4 at that pressure. I remember Costco telling me the same 2 years ago. What say you?
I do my own brakes, and I do not change the rotor every time. I prefer the "cheap" organic pads instead of the semi metallic pads that kill the rotors. As long as they are not the really low quality ones with saw dust in it, I am OK. I am not a teenager out on a Friday night. Those drivers, even carbon carbon brakes, they will get into trouble.
Absolutely awesome video! This is very useful and moneysaving information!
AMD, thank you so much!
Really interesting! I'll file this for later. Just in case.
My many and varied Toyota models have seldom needed parts… B-)
Great video and channel!
Please address the oil cartridge type filter. I find both the drain plug on the filter and the filter housing to be grossly over tightened by my Toyota Service Technician. I’ve broken metal Toyota Tools trying to loosen them. A dealer wants me back when he always screws up the oil change?
God bless you Ahmed for keeping us Toyota owners in the know. It is funny that you pulled up Manhattan Beach Toyota in your video. This dealer is owned by former Denver Broncos quarterback, John Elway. About five years ago, MB Toyota had a set of TRD headers for my 2004 Tundra with 5VZ-FE engine. The Toyota list price for the headers was $1,100. MB Toyota was blowing them out as an "end of life cycle" part for $400 on Ebay. I snatched up that deal.
Oh man, you certainly answered a few questions I had about some of these part numbers lol.
Searching for me was a bit of a learning curve at first, the dash in the part number sometimes messes up the search too.
Thats awesome though!
I also found Olathe Toyota to be pretty competitive pricing wise.
As always perfect video,
I am having trouble locating torque converter clutch solenoid on 2007 lexus es350 withe the codes p2770, p0741, could you please provide the location diagram please?
I thought I was good at buying Toy/Lex parts. You've taken me to the next level with this vid. Thank you! Really appreciate your generous assistance!!
Incredible video AMD, keep them up 🙂
Do you also have Lexus wholesale parts website?
Last year, I have my front brakes and rotors done for my 2015 RX350 and Lexus wanted to charge me for more than $600, then I decided to go to Toyota dealership and gave me the part number which is identical to Lexus and was only charged for less than $400, probably cheaper. The good thing about the Lexus dealership we have here (40 minutes drive), they will pick up my vehicle and leave a loaner for a whole day or so to use regardless of service requests.
Thank you my friend
I bought a A/C condenser for a Ford Ranger once, got a bunch of prices from all the local auto parts stores for whatever third party cheaper brand they were pushing, and decided to try the local dealer before buying, figured it would be much more expensive, but let me see how much….it was actually the cheapest price by a good margin. You never know, always shop around
