I’m thankful for you, Bill!

Trying to install my cam sprockets. Front is correct. Back is off @ 11/2 inches it appears counter clock wise from where the mark is. Should I just make it move to the mark or what?

[@NobleAutomotive]

Yes, they both have to be on the mark.Take it slowly. You may have to move your crank to make sure that the valve doesn't hit a piston.

Do you recommend the toyota sienna ? I'm looking at a 2015 sienna, xle van 161K miles for less than $4500K. I do all the work on my volvo. Your videos are very helpful, I can see your channel getting very busy.

[@NobleAutomotive]

I do like that, year model, and the engine that comes in that vehicle. But working for the dealership, we don't see that many miles on them. If it's been maintained, I don't think you'll have any issues with it. At the right price. Now, I would check the water pump for noise, the CV axles, and the brakes.

I have a 20 year old 2004 Sienna that has only had one front brake change and lasted 135000 miles before I had a head gasket leak. I had another 2005 Sienna that was running strong with about 280000 before selling it. Start it cold and listen to see if the VVTs rattle. That is worrisome. But, great vehicles. If I had kept the coolant changed on schedule, I'd still be driving the 2004!

@@NobleAutomotive how many 3.3 engines have you seen with a snapped belt and how many had bent valves?

[@NobleAutomotive]

@freddyg9026 I've only had one, and it didn't bend the valves

[@freddyg9026]

@@NobleAutomotive thank you for getting back to me. I have one that shredded the belt,I'm going to cross my fingers.

Is removing the water pump mandatory to do this. Or just recommended because your already there at it. Just wondering because there was a timing belt replacement done on my van and now there is coolant and overheating issues. Just trying to get a clear picture of what might have been done to this thing from previous owner so i know what im getting into. What i need to check etc

[@fabworldweldingllc6150]

Also very clear and consice video. Well shot great detail. Very informative and descriptive. 👍

[@NobleAutomotive]

It's just highly recommended if you replace it as well then. Usually, you've got a 100000 miles before. You have to do it again? I would be sure the Pulley is tight. And there's no coolant leaks from the weep hole. I personally wouldn't do it without replacing a water pump.

Slowly doing this job for my son inlaw. Engine mount bolts siezed and snapped off

[@NobleAutomotive]

@@PeterHernandez-lg2eh I have been there of course I work for Toyota. I just ordered a new bracket, but it looks like Amazon has them in stock for about 50 bucks. That would be the only way I know to go unless you wanna go eBay and get a used one. Sometimes it's just unavoidable. Sorry.

[@NobleAutomotive]

@@PeterHernandez-lg2eh been there myself it's been a while, but I I worked for Toyota so I just ordered new one and the bolts. I don't really know what they cost, but that's only option.

[@mrunning10]

how come EVERY vid for sienna timing belt never mentions the timing belt cover removal?

[@Mybackpack123]

Some of your torque specs (cam sprockets & idler pulley) are WAY off. Other than that - very informative. Thx

[@NobleAutomotive]

I see it in newton meters Thank you
