How to Replace a Transmission | Toyota Camry

[@fastfiddler1625]

I've been a DIY home mechanic since I got my first car. Plenty of suspension and other work. But this makes my head spin. You have to appreciate good mechanics.

[@speedkar99]

Yeah it sure is alot of work especially if you aren't equiped like me.

​@ElmerFudd1911 how many transmissions have you replaced? I know a lot of mechanics and they dread this task more than anything else

[@spelunkerd]

What an outstanding video. I really appreciate your short, snappy delivery. The first time I did a heavy job like this, I gained appreciation for a transmission jack, because it can tip independently in two planes. Only thing is, floor transmission jacks often need more room than you can find with the minimal clearance gained from standard car jacks, ha ha.

[@speedkar99]

Good tip. I had the crane to help do the heavy lifting. Ive seen some people just manhandle manual transmissions up and on there because they are light and don't have a torque converter

[@davidbaize4825]

It is worth it cause it will inspire many people to fix their own cars for small failures. Bro trasmission job is really hard even for auto mechanics. My mechanic twisted the whole engine to disengage transmission from the bell housing and one month later my transmission mount ripped apart in half on low speed, the engine dropped down on to the metal engine lower cover and I drove 500 meter with huge vibration. Because my mechanic told me on the phone it was no problem if car goes :DD So I wondered what the problem was since this would kill my whole family at high speed. I started watching videos and looked up books, I saw one of your videos and watched most of your repair videos. Now I can repair a car if I had enough tools. I am not overstating myself because since my childhood I worked as a laborer in industry repairing another type of machines and I have a mechanical engineering diploma now. I didnt know anything about cars but I learned a lot of things from people like you. It is worth it. Thanks brother.

[@passion830217]

Man, what you did is not what most people do. My neighbor just junked his 2001 4runner with 250k miles when the transmission cuddly died. I admire your hard work spirit! I have changed the control arms, CV axles, brake pads and rotors, welded broken exhaust pipe on my 02 Camry. Compared to your transmission swap, those are nothing. If I dare to try one of the job, I will be scared to dearth worrying about missing anything while installation. Taking apart is the easier part after all.

[@pcnepal]

For a job this involving, I wrote down and make notes for every part I take off; than all the parts can be re-installed in reverse sequence (like a check list as well). Sure it takes more time but I get peace of mind.

[@speedkar99]

I didn't have an issue finding where things went back since I boxed them off or screwed them back into the hole they came out of. The real thing here is working without a hoist and a helper makes this so much harder and longer

[@pcnepal]

@@speedkar99 I can do an atx swap without jotting notes too; only if I can put everything back in one or two days. Sadly most of my major repairs span over weeks so a list of work sequence really helps me to pick up where I left. And don't forget most of us watching your videos have a lot less tools and logistic support (brother's tooth brush, underwears, socks, wife's bed sheet, etc.) LOL!

[@passion830217]

@@speedkar99 Thanks for your reply! You must be meticulous to complete this complicated job. Yes, it is a good practice to put the bolts into where they belong when they are taken off. However, I forget this practice from time to time. You are really an inspiration for us. I considered myself an avid DIYer. Maybe I will try to install an engine or transmission one day. If that does happen, I shall get a harbor freight engine hoist. I actually have more mechanical tools to utilize than you do, but you are a much more skilled DIYer.

Hmmm these PCV valves aren't near as easy to get too as they used to be. My PCV valve froze during the recent deep freeze and caused an oil dilution problem. 2019 4cyl. Changed the oil and all Seems well now. No more rising oil levels.

Yes, I'm glad you did it Like many bigger compact sedans, with engine and tranny mounted to the subframe, this one is no joke to to work without hoist. Definitely not easy to swap the tranny in the driveway. And thankfully you didn't have to use acetylene to free up seized bolts, something that very common in our 'rust belt'.

[@speedkar99]

My biggest fear was rusty exhaust. That's why you see it's already unbolted in the beginning of the video. If I couldn't get that off I wouldn't have tackled this job since exhaust work would have totalled it way out of budget.

Great video! Perfect evidence that these transmissions are not meant to be removed, except as a pet project where time, frustration and lost parts are not issues. The cost of doing this professionally on such an old car would be prohibitive, it makes no sense. Much easier to drive it into the ground, drop it down a ravine and buy another! 😀

[@michaeldunagan8268]

I don't know if you'll find any solace in what I have to say next but here it is anyway; I was able to get a link to download the A541E transaxle workshop manual. The manual instructions to do everything pretty much as you've done it in this video except for the power steering rack. The manual says to completely disconnected and lay it on top of the cradle that's holding the engine. This surprises me cuz it still seems like it would be easier to drop the engine and transmission as one assembly. I guess it means a couple more motor mounts in a few more wiring harnesses to be disconnected. With my Solara, I haven't had air conditioning since I bought it 7 years ago so I don't have to worry about EVAP-ing the freon. I still think one could take the air-compressor off the engine and hang it somewhere with all the a/c lines still attached to avoid this issue. I was at a Totota dealership over the weekend in West suburban Chicago this past Saturday. The shop manager on duty told me that it would be about an 8-hour labor charge to drop the sub-frame assembly. Currently in febuary 2024 at the shop labor is assessed at $185 U.S.D. per hour. So close to 1,600 schmacks just to drop the subframe assebly. The aforementioned also told me that on a warranty claim that came into the shop a few months ago on a 2019 Toyota where the shop had to go through the transmission was about a 29-hour job. He then said that with my old 23-year-old Solara that the labor could go up beyond 35-hours because of all the corrosion at age. He says for a job on my car, there is no flat rate. It's basically a stopwatch when the mechanic punches in on the job until when he punches out.

[@speedkar99]

Thanks. I was trying to avoid dealing with rusty power steering lines but I had to anyway. They aren't easy to connect when the rack is in the vehicle. Next time, I'd probably lift the engine and transmission out the top as an assembly. I recently engine swapped a Lexus ES350 and found it easier to go out the top.

Very graceful removal to that transmission. Im glad no one got hurt. 😅 I'm wondering what your specific issue was with getting out the passenger side axle. I've had to take out the passenger side axle on my 99' Lexus ES300 twice, once to replace it, and another time to replace the engine mount bushing. The most difficult part was getting the snap-ring back in place. Maybe because of the rust? I live in Florida so it's pretty much rust-free. Either way, great video and I love your channel!

For the car yes. For my labor...no way not again

Couple suggestions, use a ratchet strap to hold the rack upright against the engine, also to remove a rusty passenger axle cut the intermediate axle shaft with a angle grinder, unbolt the bearing carrier from the engine block and replace passenger axle. It costs about 50$ for a new axle on eBay but its definitely worth not having to deal with lining up the new transmission

[@elliottslim2152]

We replace the same one for about 25 miles then, the clutch don't catch 3rd,and 2nd but reverse works properly.

[@speedkar99]

Did you check the fluid levels? And adjust the clutch?

[@TigerKittay]

The transmission needs a new car lol. Excellent job either way.

[@paulparoma]

Well, that was easy! And it took less than 18 minutes! A great DIY project, no doubt.;) On a more serious note: You refilled the power steering reservoir with ATF. My 2005 Scion has clear power steering fluid from the factory, but Dexron III ATF is red and recommended by the owner's manual. What to do if I want to change the fluid by pumping it out? In other words, I can't see how the clear and the red could mix. Thanks!

[@speedkar99]

Flush out the old stuff with ATF. I have a power steering flush video for that , check it out

[@paulparoma]

@@speedkar99 Many thanks!

You tricked your brother into helping you and he's laughing in the background 😂

[@speedkar99]

Yeah he sure had the last laugh. Too much work but thanks for his little time to align that transmission
