A Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician and Toyota\Lexus speciality shop owner shares one singular thing that you should never do to your Toyota
Toyota Owners PLEASE NEVER DO THIS TO YOUR TOYOTA! I have been talking about this for as long as my channel have existed and I hope you all follow this recommendation to avoid issues and have your Toyota for a very long time without issues.
It breaks my heart every time I speak with a Toyota Owner who has an oil consumption problem in an engine that wasn't affected by any manufacturing issue simply because they didn't catch the 10k oil change in time.
It is one of the worst ideas and one I wish would change in the future. Please change your oil in your Toyota engine every 5000 Miles or 6 months whichever comes first. Use good quality oil.
The owner of this 2015 Toyota Camry is one of the nicest folks I have ever met. He had to find out this way why a 10k mile oil change interval is not a good idea.
Hope this helps everyone avoid issues with their car with proper maintenance, care and understanding of why things are done at specific times and intervals.

Oil may be cheap in America, but here in Europe you'd need a mortgage just to pay for the oil change. Ludicrously expensive everywhere. That's why people here go way over 5,000 miles (8,000 km) between changes. A top-up quart (litre) would cost you $30 in a local gas station.

@@leneanderthalien You are right about the oil price, I can find Mazda Supra X 0w-20 oil around 60-80 Euros for 5 liters. But the main issue for us is the place to change. Since many of us are living in the flats, instead of having a house and a private garage, we need to have it done by service. Adding to that also oil filter and oil disposal cost, that's making it more expensive. But, expensive or not, we have to do it if we want to use our car for longer period.

This is the first time watching this. It's fascinating. I became a 5K oil changer 3 years ago taking Ahmed's advice. Despite the annoyance of cartridge removal to change the filter ordeal each time I don't regret it at all. If it helps others who do their own oil changes on their Toyotas using the cartridge system and can't deal with the stupid plastic piece that is so difficult to insert to remove the cartridge oil there is a $13 threaded insert device that can be hand screwed into that opening with a plastic tube on the other end that makes it a reasonably pleasant process, with practically no mess at all. It's called a MOCW filter drain tool. Using it for the first time gave me a smile. As always, I am very grateful to Ahmed for the wonderful support he has given me through his videos to help keep our two Toyotas running.. It's not only that he delivers fine information it's the way he says it that makes taking care of our cars an inspiring process.

This guy is awesome and totally correct about oil change intervals. But one thing I have always preached is metallurgy. All metal is not created equal. It does not matter how precisely the part is made if the material is of poor quality. Let's take truck frames that rust out early. ( Chevy, Toyota ). I've heard people blaming the manufacturers for not painting the frames. METALLURGY folks! POOR QUALITY STEEL! My 1971 Chevelle frame has not rusted in 51 years and it does not have a drop of paint or protective coating on it. and I am in the northeast. The manufacturers will cut every corner they can to keep profits up and their stockholders happy. Lower quality materials plays a big role in lower quality products. I'm sure as a metallurgist you can attest to that.

It's mindboggling to me that cars made in 2015 or later are having engine issues, needing to be rebuilt, and how consumers get conned with whole garbage warranty gimmick. Great video!

I have a story for you regarding Toyota. An old boss had a friend that loved his Toyota. It was serviced regularly. This car refused to break down. Other then the odd water pump, starter and alternator and regular oil changes nothing else was replaced. It was super high mileage. Toyota promised this man a new Toyota for free if he could make it last for 1 million km. The mileage on this Toyota was at 995000km and someone hit this car really bad. The damage at that time was $6500. The insurance company was going to turn this car into a total loss but the owner refused. So the owner paid out of his pocket to have this car repaired. 6 months later he was driving a brand new Toyota free of charge. Now that has to say about the Toyota brand and reliability.

As someone with about 20 years in the high tech lubricant and oil refining industry who recently bought a 2023 Corolla, I was surprised that the dealer recommended oil changes every 16000 kilometers/10K miles. For decades I have been breaking new cars in with 3 oil changes in the first 10K kms and have never had an oil burning/leaking problem or even an internal engine problem with any car. I told the dealer they were nuts and that I would be doing oil changes every 8000 kms/5000 miles. Also, if you look at your owners manual, it will tell you to monitor your oil level and to add oil "as necessary" during normal operations. Now I know why my brother in law's Corolla starting burning oil at 150K kms, about 20 yrs ago. BTW, dealers use cheapest oils that meet the manufacturer specs, its nothing special. I use Valvoline and Quaker State myself and I have tested all brands of oil over the years and these are the ones I would recommend.

@@garycasper2929 Obviously you are brainwashed or set in the 80s. I have been doing this for 15 years no problems. My family does the same thing, never a problem. Our workvans are done like this, no problem. If 5000 mile oil changes were required to make engines last, there would be an engine swap shop on every street corner working overtime, since extended oil changes are common, but this is not the case. If an oil is rated for 15-20k miles, it can easily do 10k. During that 10K, it is offering far greater protection, so the engine will last longer than with conventional, even with far longer change intervals. There have been studies done involving sending used oil to a lab for testing, either when recommended by on board computer, or with extended change, the oil comes back well within spec. The most important thing would be to occasionally check oil level in case of an oil leak, since running low can easily destroy an engine, and oil pressure warnings generally come on too late to save an engine. If you are constantly changing oil far too early, you will pay half the cost of a replacement in wasted oil, making any savings irrelevant.

What we found was that the oil changes at 3,000 miles had very little in the way of carbon, acids and metallic build up. At 5,000 miles the oils showed a much higher amount of acids and even though the metal particles were microscopic there was a significant increase in parts per million indicating friction was having a toll on the internals of the engine. At 7,000 miles, only a difference of 2,000 more miles, the acid levels were exponentially higher along with all manner of microscopic metallic particles suspended in the oils. Similar tests were done on the rear ends and gear boxes of the larger trucks showing the fresher the oil the more it protected not only from friction but the acids that build up in engine oils over time which further goes to your point. Oil changes are cheap insurance against major repairs. Transmission fluids on long term lease vehicles also showed similar results. Prior to dumping the fluids into the pan the pan was steam pressure washed and dried to insure no contaminants were coming from the pan the fluids were being dumped into. A new syringe was used to pull a 3 ounce sample into a clean test tube for each vehicle. I hope this helps to make your point. I am adding a link to a more recent video so you can see how clean it is inside the engine if you do change your oil at 5,000 miles. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jV7UinmqZrymbdk

Thanks for this excellent advice. I bought a new Toyota Hilux pickup in 1983. My mechanic at that time told me that if he had one piece of advice towards keeping the truck a long time it would be to change the oil and oil filter every 2,500 miles using only a high quality oil (Valvoline 10-40). I'm still driving it (currently at 222,000 miles) and it runs fine. The only major engine work has been a new timing belt at 100,000 miles and a head gasket at 150,000 miles. Kept a record of all maintenance on the vehicle over its life and cost of labor, parts oil, etc. comes to less than $400.00/yr. Vehicles don't have to be disposable, something to buy every five years which is exactly what the dealerships want.

I did change my oil every 3,000 miles after I'd put about 30,000 miles on my Toyota just to it running better with clean air oil filter since the oil wasn't a clear as when it was new. Tune up earlier than recommended too. My boyfriend paid for it but, back then it didn't cost as much nowadays. He liked to borrow it once in awhile which I didn't mind for the free tune up his friend would do cheap. In fact he even detailed my car too. It ran like a champ and when I sold it after 26yrs.i got 2,500 for it and only paid 5,000 bare bones because I wanted to put my own stereo in which I spent a lot of money for. I wanted a high end stereo and speakers in the back trunk which I could pull out for park or beach parties. You do have to start it up once in awhile so you drain the battery. It was a manual which got 35 mpg in the city and 40+on the highway.

On a 2009 Toyota with 130K miles, I switched from 5w20 to 5w30 high mileage full synthetic oil and oil consumption is greatly reduced. Suspect some of the oil burn was through hardened valve stem seals and the high mileage oil softened those up. 30W synthetic oil is a little thicker than 20w conventional oil the engine was designed to burn. That helps consumption as well.

I am only a DIY "mechanic" but I completely agree with you. I have changed oil in my vehicles every 5,000 miles (or less) for the past 50 years. My view is simple: oil is cheap, engines are not. The only vehicle I ever owned that burned oil was a 1956 Chevrolet, which burned oil like a mosquito fogger when I got it. I did a home garage rebuild on that engine (235 ci six cylinder) and it worked like a charm. It was then a rust bucket with a good engine. 😎 These days I have a 2020 RAV4 Hybrid and a 2022 Toyota Tacoma. I love these vehicles and I change the oil every 5,000 miles religiously -- no matter what the dealership or the Owner's Manual say -- because I expect these two vehicles to outlast me.

I also use a top quality (and expensive) NAPA Gold oil filter. The engine is a 3.6l, 7Ly engine which was not one of their best products. I heard the 3.8 was bullet proof. :-) Yes, oil IS the life's blood of your engine. I'll be changing my oil this coming Wednesday and I have just a few miles over 4,000 miles. At 84 years of age, this "oil change project" is a good work out for me. :-) Although I generally use a hydraulic lift if I can. The "on the floor with a creeper" really works me out. Up, down, up, down, etc., etc. I try to keep the Buick in working order - just changed the side multi-purpose switch assembly side panel, on the driver's side. Was a bit of a job. On the list is to change the "turn-signal" multipurpose "wand" assembly. I have to buy a #25 torques bit for one fastener. Most of my parts have come from E-Bay. Have had good luck. I've subscribed and will be watching you to see what else you can teach me. Thanks,

Thanks for this great content. While this is a little long to share, it really explains ALL the facts and costs for an engine rebuild AND supports the rationale for a 5000 mile oil change interval. Let’s face it: the manufacturer recommendation of the “10000 mile” oil change interval supports “planned obsolescence” that enables the carmaker to sell you a new car sooner. Thanks again!!

So glad you made this video Ahmed ! My new Venza is now 6 mo old and has about 5500 miles . It was at the dealer 2 weeks ago for its first service. Which of course is just look over and tire rotation, no oil change . As I told you before my beautiful 2016 Camry was totaled in February in an accident. Im still mad about that guy hitting my car. I will be changing the oil in my Venza with a genuine filter and genuine Toyota 0w16 oil. We are lucky enough to have a independent shop in my area that only uses genuine parts in any of his services. An oil change there is $90 bucks and he has taken me into his shop to show me his oil room and not even a quart of non-genuine oil in there . Even the drums of oil say Toyota on the side . I especially enjoyed the part when you were inspecting the head from the Camry and you made the remark about that head being a Toyota head and not something off of a Chevy 😂. I worked in a Chevy shop for 40 years and have been a very loyal Toyota owner since 1995 . Thanks again for all your help. Oh, one more thing. What I was buying my Venza in Feb, the dealer here had all the old Toyota slogans through the years posted on the walls in the showroom . I went one better , and told them the very oldest Toyota slogan I know from 60,s . It goes like this , "Get your hands on A Toyota, You'll never let go " . I hope to come to Chicago one day and meet you in person and shake your hand . 😊

Thank you for this video. I am retired from a Toyota factory and worked on a line that built the AR engine (after working on the AZ engine line). Having packed a couple hundred short blocks for service parts, I can say that this did not come out of our plant. Of course we stopped AR production around 2018-2019. The first clue was the packaging, for we used a wood-framed crate. The second clue was the "AB" on the crank. We did not have it marked on the crank at all. While we had A, B and C pins, we were concerned only that the conrod weights matched (marked at the crank end) in the engine. You could have A, B and C sized pins in the same engine. What was interesting was when we made a piston service part, the order specified only an A, B, or C. It did not matter what the conrod weight was (we tried to use a rod weight in the middle of the range). Your description of the five digits is almost spot-on. There were also 5 digits on the bottom of the block. Both sets were read by the machines that did the assembly of the various internal parts, and, through a mathematical formula, determined the main bearing size to be used on each journal. On my line at least, everything internal to the block was done by robots. Removing the oil pan from the crankcase takes great care if you need to reuse both parts. The lip on the oil pan will bend easily and the crankcase is aluminum, so it scratches if you look at it cross-eyed. We used nylon wedges and and a sand hammer to break these loose. Maybe it's easier when the gasket material has aged for several years.

I had the oil tested at each interval to make sure the oil was okay. After testing and informed that it was okay to increase the oil change interval. But I stopped at 10k miles. The 4 Runner currently has 419k miles and runs fine. Doesn't burn oil and I now change it at 5k miles since I don't commute anymore to work. Before I drove 40 miles to my job and 40 miles back home.

I live in Australia and own a 2004 Avalon with a 1MZ-FE VVT-i V6 engine. I have done north of 320,000 Kilometers (198,839 Miles). I have changed the oil and filter every 10,000 Kms (6214 miles) or every 12 months. I always use premium fully synthetic oil and as much as possible use the same brand of oil every time. The vehicle burns no oil, does not blow smoke and the oil is quite clean with only a slight brown discolouration but still translucent at the end of the oil change period. The engine pulls hard and never complains even when asked full throttle acceleration from 0 to 80 Mph. The owners manual specifies oil and filter changes at 15,000 kms or 12 months except under severe conditions such as dusty, rough, muddy or snow melted roads etc where 7,500 kms or 6 mys changes are recommended.

I have actually changed oil that looked new at 5000 miles but you could tell while draining it that the viscosity (thickness) had changed. And you sir are one hell of a mechanic.

On behalf of those that follow your videos I'd like to express my gratitude for your straightforward and honest advice on how to best maintain our cars. I have always done my own maintenance on all my cars and am relieved that I've generally been following your advice all along! I have a 17 yr old Mazda 3 and a 21 year old MPV both running well and not burning oil so that says something. Now having taken delivery of '21 RAV4 Prime one year ago, I'm somewhat regretting having taken advantage of 'Toyota Care', having the dealer do the maintenance. I insisted they do the first oil change at 5000 miles (really only ~2000 on the engine) and assuming they did it right, found after several months that the oil was OVERFILLED by about 5/8 in. on the dipstick. I'd asked them to drain it and they overfilled it again, so I had them drain it again. Folks: the dealers do not even check then oil level when they fill them, just use their bulk fill gauge and hand it over to you. If you get the job done anywhere, check it again yourself, or better yet do it yourself!.. AMD - If I lived in the Chicago area I would be your loyal customer in a heartbeat. Please keep doing what you do!

I have a 2020 Corolla Hatchback, I didn't use Toyota Care. My car has never been back to the dealership since the day I purchased it. I've done the oil changes myself. My main concern is that the dealership won't use the correct oil. The oil this car requires, 0W-16, is pretty pricey. It costs $12 or so a quart, and this car requires 5 quarts. For all I know, the dealership could be putting 5W-30 in every car. I presume the dealership isn't receiving much compensation for the free Toyota Care oil changes, so they might try to cut corners.

The short interval is not only for the oil change, but so a good mechanic can also do an inspection since they have your car up already anyway to check for any fluid leaks or suspension/ tire wear. 10k miles is a long time to go without a mechanic checking things out to make sure you're not going to run into problems in the near future.
