I have done hundreds of timing belts also.The Aisin kits are the best.I used one on a 2011 Sienna and it actually came with a OE gasket and the Toyota logo was ground off the pump.
Any trick not to take off cam pulley and the cover to replace water pump?
I have a 2007 Lexus RX400h, with over 260,000.0 miles on it. Every 90,000 miles, I have the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, water hoses, and tensioner + idler replaced. Car runs like a champ.
It definitely takes plenty of patience to repair vehicles. Professional mechanics are worth every penny.
From one Licensed tech to another I know you take your hoist for granted when working at home 😉
Hi AMD, I have an irrelevant Qs to ask because I can not find answers anywhere. My is250 2009 both rear doors have reversal locking. When I lock the car the rear doors unlock. When I unlock the car, rear doors lock. The issues may have caused after taking it to the panel beaters for dent repair. Maybe. Please help
I know I am in a minority, but I would rather have the belt than the chain. Much easier to replace the 3MZ-FE belt than to seal the 2GR-FE front cover.
Interesting problem on the Toyota forum recently – a member was replacing the timing belt on a 3MZ-FE and damaged the reluctor. When reassembled, the car threw P0353 and P0356 – companion cylinders. Replacing the reluctor wheel solved the problem.
I always tell my apprentice's the arrow on the belt points towards the idiot installing it.
Hello AMD, I just bought a 2018 lexus es300H, do you have a video on how to clean/replace the hybrid fan filter?
Thank you for all your amazing videos, huge fan long time subscriber.
God Bless You!
This job looks iffy for our DIY skill level. We'd have to flip a coin on this one. But as always we appreciate you sharing how to do it. Thanks, AMD and Mrs. Car Care Nut!
❤❤❤
Thank you for this video, my 3mz is overdue.
How the marks on the belt are significant? The pulleys define the cam and piston positions. The belt is same throughout except one side is ribbed. Hence I am not able to comprehend why marks on belt are given and they need alignment with pulleys?
Mr. Car Care Nut. Is there an email to contact you? We have occasionally gone back and forth through comments to help me with my lean 07 ES350 @ 132k miles with no codes, max lean is 22% both banks LTFT, but it's a lot of information to share, as you can see below. I bought the car at 130k miles last may, so I put 2500 miles on it. It's known city driving its whole life (NYC/Long Island).
I've checked and done the following and still to no avail.
1) Both upstream A/F Voltages around: 3.3V. Inducing a lean condition by disconnecting a hose makes them both go to 4.45-4.5V which is normal I believe. I did not induce a rich condition to test.
2)Barometer: 100-101kpa @altitude 4m/13ft
3)New OEM downstream O2 sensors
4)New OEM Spark plugs
5)Fuel pressure 1-2psi above spec, negligible
6) DIY Smoke machine shows no leaks when putting smoke into intake. In fact, pressure builds and pushes smoke back out through my DIY smoke machine (smoke in jar, bike pump).
7)New EGR Valve
8)New oil cap o-ring
9)Brake booster slight issue where pressing down and shutting the engine off, it immediately pushes back off, indicating a small vacuum leak. But pinching the hose and looking at the fuel trims shows its negligible. ALTHOUGH when the brake is in normal use, when I press the brake when the car is running, the short term on both banks can jump way high up to 20%, and then it raises the long term. Is that normal behavior?
10)Measured resistances of 3/6 injectors – Cylinder 2, 4 and 6 all in spec. The other injectors are under the intake which makes it a pain to get to.
11)NEW OEM MAF sensor because the original MAF sensor was underreporting, a junkyard MAF was underreporting, and the new MAF sensor OEM I got today is underreporting.
Last owner Lexus told to do a MOC fuel system decarb but the owner refused. The reason for the recommendation is not listed.
Appreciate if you can do one for timing chain.. this is awesome
Does the new 2022 Toyota Sienna 4cy hybrid have a timing belt or timing chain
If only years ago I could have viewed info like this and better for young men interested in apprenticeship. These simply informative guides make the career of mechanic very interesting . Hope in the future you get an apprentice, you’re an amazing mentor
How hard is to replace the camshaft and crankshaft seals at the same time when you are doing this job.
I got a 2001 toyota sienna and with second engine 210,00 miles. I think I'll run it until it blows up. That work for the garage would cost to much for replacement of the belt and etc.
What vehicle do you recommend?
I currently drive a 2010 Prius, and I drive about 80 miles, 6 days a week, in the hot southwest of Phoenix Arizona.
My wife and I are going to need to carry 3 car seats in a couple months, so the Prius will not hold us anymore. We do not have a garage, and do not want fully electric.
I do like the hybrids, and I typically buy used so I can pay cash. She currently drives a 2003 Sequoia, I'm just hoping to find something better on fuel economy. Not sure if a Camry/Avalon would accommodate 3 car seats, or if I need to look at a van or mid-size SUV. Higher mileage doesn't scare me knowing Toyota/Lexus reputation.
90% highway miles, exclusively paved roads
What options & years do you recommend?
Great vid brother luv your reviews and how 2s. Question a important seal like that do you recommend going oem or would a Fel-Pro be ok. Keep up the great content good sir.
Great video I learn alot God bless you sir
