A Rare look at Toyota’s new engine assembly. A Toyota master diagnostic technician takes you on a journey on the full reassembly of Toyota’s new dynamic force engine the A25A-FKS 2.5L.
In this video I will put together this new engine and narrate over the images all the different components of the engine and how everything went back together up to the point of starting up.
These are not some production images that I googled. This is an actual engine that I hand assembled and installed in the car from start to finish at my job as a Toyota technician at a Toyota dealership.
Note to owners of this engine. I said this in the video but I will mention it again. This is a single case failure and not a common problem. Don’t be worried about your engine. I always encourage you to take care of your car and it will take care of you. Many people don’t take care of rental cars so let’s take 2 additional thoughts out of this video. Be careful when buying ex rental cars as they tend to have a hard life And Drive rental cars as you’d drive your own car so in the future when other people buy them, they won’t be buying a beaten car by the renters! Thank you!
For my regular viewers. I typically attempt to make my videos follow a theme of Simple but complicated, however in this one things might get a bit technical and fast, If you have any questions about anything please feel free to leave a comment and I’ll be more than happy to clarify anything.

That was the first thought in my head when I saw this, a rental car. In my 40+ years as a dealer mechanic, I can honestly say that rental cars are a very close second to young, inexperienced drivers when it comes to vehicle abuse and neglect. I tell everyone that's looking for a late model vehicle to never buy a former rental car, I've seen way too many of these rental vehicles that have a stellar reputation for reliability that are on their last leg at a low mileage due to abuse/neglect.
You the man ! Great job and you make it interesting ….
Interesting.
These injectors are the new piezo type which uses a piezo actuator to open and closed the injector valve.
Wow
What a project!!!
Thanks for sharing.
That is a lot of work! You nailed it.
You mentioned that the Camry has an oil separator, and that it doesn’t need an oil catch can. Do you know if the Highlander 2017 Limited has one too?
Thank you in advance, may the Lord bless you!
Sorry to ask a question somewhat off the subject but this is your most recent video so I hope you are still reviewing the comments. My question: I have a 2014 Prius which has been flawless, I love it. Can I run this car through a car wash??THX!
And then they will have problems because Toyota, Honda and Nissan CAN'T build reliable vehicles anymore. Unicorn my ass.
One that my dad taught me MANY years ago…enjoy! Do you know what the difference is between a rental car and an old truck? There are just some things you won't do to an old truck 🙂
heck dude im 68 I used to work on Fiats back in the day,70s nobody had adjustable pulleys ,or hot cams, but those 1600 twin cam engine,s were good for 6000 rpm and 125 hp with headers and dual side draft Webers
Great video! It's difficult to tell if it is easy to get to the PCV valve once the engine is back in the car. What is your thought on this?
Thanks for the video. You showed bent valves… is the engine an interference motor?
I can’t believe these engines have an EGR system. Though variable cam / valve timing is supposed to eliminate that. It has for 15+ years.
Great video! I have a 19 RAV4 LE.
I'm really impressed by your skills and ability to take an engine that complex apart and put it back together running properly. It makes me wonder if all dealerships have that kind of experienced and able technicians to service my car. I just got a brand new Hybrid Highlander; i hope my dealership has this level of quality technicians. Engines are at an incredible level of sophistication today that technicians ought to be top notch with with a good head on their shoulders.
