2017 Lexus GX 460 DIY Oil Change, Fumoto Valve Install and Quick Review on Cross Bar Install.

As the title states, we're going to go through on how to do an oil change on a 2107 Lexus GX 460 including the installation of a Fumoto Valve. The Fumoto Valve is an after market valve that allows draining the oil using only a valve lever. No need to take the drain plug out just move a valve from closed to open. I also talk briefly about the installation of the OEM cross bars. If you enjoy PLESE SUBSCRIBE. Also the mechanic who did the work is in town, mobile and very good at what he does. Also, he is reasonable in price. Private message me for his number if you'd like. I live in Santa Barbara, CA.

Thanks for the tutorial just got a nice 2018 first oilchange free

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

Congrats, they are literal tanks.

[@palpatov]

What you need to grease on these are the ujoints and slide yokes on the two driveshafts. 6 zerk fittings total. I would have done that since the front covers were off.

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

Thanks Palpatov, that is good to know for next time.

Great video

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

Thanks, and thanks for subscribing.

[@jinheu5119]

I don’t think I had to take off the whole plate underneath to get to drain plug their is a little square right below plug that u can take off to get to drain plug I have a 2019 gx 460 it should be the same

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

You are correct, from now on I will just do that for the valve. This first time I took it off to make it easier to install.

[@brandonblack2095]

fyi fumuto valve is not good, very convenient yes, but if you look at the threaded part where it bolts to the pan it's too long so when you drain it, it won't drain all the oil out

[@marccd2]

That's what I thought lol. That is like 1/4qt of oil left

[@willytrouble88]

Do you have any information on the special tool you used for removing the filter element housing?

[@danrol354]

How far does that Fumoto valve stem get threaded into the oil pan? I would think it doesn't allow all the oil to drain to the bottom of the pan due to it's neck unless it has slots in it..

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

Not sire, maybe someone else can chime in. I guess it would depend on the model and the pan design and thickness. I would assume some engineering went in to it to mount flush to oil pan as I noticed some have longer threads and some shorter.

[@eketony]

I think I am uncomfortable using the drain valve . What if there is a manufacturing defect that can lead to the valve failure thereby leading to your engine knocking . The drain plug seems okay for me.

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

It is covered by a warranty, it is used by numerous big name fleet operators and every single valve is tested before leaving the factory. It is made of steel and brass so nut much to fail. But then it is your call in the end. If you're not comfortable then I wouldn't do it. On my truck, the oil pan is covered by a steel protective plate so that makes me feel a bit better.

[@eketony]

@@ONBLASTWITHMG Thanks for the assurance .

[@nate978x]

What is the part # for the Fumoto valve ??

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

F103S is the part number.

[@Joricano]

very detailed..love it. Do you happen to know the tool he used to remove the filter?

[@uzielgutz7188]

Joricano 64 mm,walmart 5 bucks..

[@Joricano]

Thanks

[@uzielgutz7188]

Joricano i have a is250 and a gx460.. same size filter housing very convenient 👍🏽

[@Joricano]

I just have a 460. I wanna do the oil change this summer myself

[@alejandrobatista2481]

Was here any clearance issues with the valve and the plate?

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

None

[@_Username__]

why didn't u clean the filter holder?

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

That one snuck by this time.

[@brandonblack2095]

year 2107 ?

[@trextrextrex]

Yep 87 years in the future

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

Thanks, fixed that.

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

I went and did a Back to the Future!

[@largelarry2126]

You are going 10,000 miles between oil changes! If the oil is contaminated it needs to be changed no matter what people tell you or what you see on KZbin. The contamination in the oil will damage/clog the oil rings on the pistons and can also damage the barrings on the crank and rods. By the way, you can also buy a all metal housing that replaces the plastic one holding the filter.

[@ONBLASTWITHMG]

Thanks Larry. Good to know, was wondering about that plastic little clip, also was of the school it was on the weak side long term as well. As far as the oil change interval and phantom contamination, mostly hogwash. Just change your oil as your the manufacturer suggests.
