2008 to 2011 ford focus automatic.. well-known mine died at 98k some at just 70k when it starts shurping
When I do these I drop the cross member from one side. And get the torque convertor out pretty quick. But pulling the engine is interesting also. I'll have to try it that way. Thank you.
it's amazing that some of late model Audis are more reliable than some Toyotas.
I thought Toyota was a reliable car that could be bought blindfolded.
I have a 2014 Camry with 160k miles on it and the transmission fluid has never been changed. Wondering if you think it’s ok to go ahead and do a fluid change to try and get some new fluid in there. Currently the tranny shifts perfectly fine doesn’t seem like it’s slipping at all. Thanks!
I use the stuff call transmission shudder fix a red 2 oz tube haven't had a problem yet
What did you charge for the job?
Why in the fu— you guys remove the engine , i can do tha job in 3 hrs just moving the tranny back and hold it with the sub frame
Can you talk more about the software update? How can that prevent this from happening?
Dream car in the back
I would have pulled the tranny out. I've pulled a few of those out
Factory headers, nice…
All the money you save to buy a cheap car end up costing more.
That’s not the way you do it just remove the transmission so simple that’s what Toyota technicians do
I have the same problem on my 2020 Toyota Camry with 165,000 miles vibration coming from the transmission torque converter
Do this to a Subaru , but put the toyota engine back instead .
Sadly, Toyota no longer covers this maintenance under warranty/recall. I missed the cutoff date by 2 months as it ended the date of car’s manufacture + 8 years. (Mine was February 2012, therefore after February 2020 it’s no longer covered.) I paid $2400 for this repair at a Toyota dealership in April 2020. I was hesitant because of price, but I have had no issues since.
Only Toyota would fit factory tube header to a camry…
Why did you remove the engines ? i had done transmission swap on camry before, engine bay got a lot of space to just remove the trans without pulling out the engines.. if i remember it only take less than an hour to pull the trans completely from the car.
