Thank you for this, I accidentally drained my transmission fluid instead of my engine oil when I was trying to change the engine oil and you saved me from having 2-ton paperweight. Lesson learned, don't let the arrogance of "I've done this a dozen times" keep you from refreshing yourself with the procedure!

Great video, thanks! I can't speak to the 2gen, but the 3gen manual has you remove the jumper before removing the overflow plug for the final level check. After you put the truck in temp check mode, the manual states: "NOTICE: Be sure that terminals TC and TE1 are not connected. If the terminals are connected, the fluid level cannot be precisely adjusted due to fluctuations in engine speed." HINT: Disconnecting terminals TC and TE1 activates engine idle speed control mode. Even after terminals TC and TE1 are disconnected, automatic transmission fluid temperature detection mode will be active until the ignition switch is turned off."

Thanks for the information! I believe this applies the same to the 3rd gen. This is definitely the best video I've seen on this. I take the information you give and apply it to the 3rd gen, you're the best, no-nonsense car maintenance/repair videos online. One thing I would do without fail is to check the fills at home, whether you buy new or used. I found my differential and manual transmission to be almost a half quart and about 10oz low from the factory, respectively, when cold. I'm not sure if they're eyeballing it at the factory or if there is a machine that dispenses fluids and has an error margin, but this is documented by many in the Tacoma forums, some people are over a quart low in the auto tranny and this can't be great for a "lifetime fluid".

Yes there's a difference between "drain and fill" maintenance versus a "flush". You should do it at least 3 times to clear out torque convertor and trans cooler. You can remove the return hose from cooler and pump out most of the old fluid (3l at a time using measured bucket and an assistant to turn truck on and off and cycle gears)

I did this and removed 3 qts. I refilled 3 qts. When idling I opened up my overflow and nothing came out. I shut off engine and 750 ml came out. I put another qt in and when idling a couple drops came out. My question is should I add more and wait for the slow trickle from overflow during idle? Was I low to begin with? 3 qts sounds like the most people are putting in but I currently have 3.25 qts inside. Please help.

I own a 2005 Tacoma Prerunner, Crew Cab, Extended Cargo Bed (6 ft) with the 4.0 Engine. I have owned the truck since 2007. It has 170,000 miles and runs beautifully. After having the tranny fluid changed at 100,000 I have changed it in the following manner: 1. remove the fill plug, 2. remove the drain plug. 3. Run 1 quart of WS tranny fluid through the fill plug and let it drain out (the tranny filter is actually a wire mesh filter device and running a quart through the tranny will clean it up pretty much). 4. close the drain plug and add 3 quarts back into the trans. 5. Reinsert the fill plug. This I was told by a Toyota mechanic that is the same procedure used at the dealership. I have never pulled the overflow plug ever.

Thank you for this video! Some tips you covered but seeing the order below may help someone: Make sure overflow plug is hand tightened, then fill. Wire in, turn ignition and start engine Slowly shift from Park to Low and back to Park. Then immediately shift to Neutral and shift to Drive then to neutral then to drive then to neutral then to drive, this should take 6 seconds so go slow. You will see AT oil light while shifting. Then shift to park. AT oil light goes away. Wait. …I waited 15 minutes or so from a cold start. Here he states only 5 minutes. So it may vary. Once AT light is on, leave engine idling in Park, remove overflow plug until it slowly drips, then seal it back up. Turn off engine. Torque all bolts accordingly, careful it’s hot! 29 fill bolt 15 for both overflow and drain plug. Remove wire Start engine *Then come back to this video and Like and Subscribe!*

If this is a mistake and because of this it is necessary to completely change the gear oil.?😨, The test itself for a car in a licensed Toyota Israel garage but that does not mean that the test is correct that's why I need your recommendation tnx.

If I leave check plug off and pump fluid in, it runs out like at 5:32. But put the plug in, add fluid...and run car, open check plug...it doesn't flow out. makes me think circulating the fluid is essential to getting check right. agree? so need to keep car running while pumping in fluid last time? Or fill it til overflows cold...then open check plug, and let come out. That seems more risky as could put too much in.

One question, if I may: since you refill it to just overflowing when cold, then just letting the overflow dribble until it stops AFTER correct AT OIL TEMP reached should guarantee the correct level since the fluid expanded when hot. You shouldn't have to add any when hot, correct?

Is there really a need to do this at a very specific temp? No matter what, at the point of max trans temp to move the fluid to the top of the overflow tube, the fluid will flow into the tube and never go back into the trans. With that said, one only needs to warm up the trans to normal operating temps, about 15min or just go drive around for 1/2 hr and it'll be warmed up to op temps. They make this way more difficult than it has to be. Just add fluid until it comes out of the overflow tube...DONE.

If my tacoma has 80,000 miles on it would it be safe to change the fluid?

There is no filter inside, it's only a screen. You could add a external filter in line. I plan to add a cooler and filter on my 4 runner. Video on the next couple weeks. It would be the same for basically any toyota truck.

Hi so flushing is not really necessary? Just simple drain and fill? Im at 30k mils never done this. Per manual I need to do it at 60k miles. I have tow package can I follow this same procedure?

@Beacon_Offroad 4 жыл бұрын
Well not that flushing isnt necessary, theres nothing wrong with that, but you can service it without needing a machine. This is a simple service that can be done at home. You can do it early or more often if you wish. Tow shouldn't change anything with the procedure.

For transmissions fluid on a 3rd gen Tacoma, I am at 51k miles, do you recommend a drain and fill or a flush? I spoke with the dealership and they said they would do a flush which seems overkill for such low miles.

I personally over service all my own vehicles. Flush or drain and fill is really up to you. You can also do multiple drain and fills to get a better fluid service.

@@Beacon_Offroad Appreciate the feedback! If I have and scan tool or an OBD II port adapter that tells me the temperature of the transmission there’s no need to put the truck tempt check mode. Is that right?

So at 3:20 do you put oil back in before putting the cotter pin in to the OBD2 and putting it in neutral and drive within the 6 seconds? If so how much did you put in? Enough for it to drain out the overflow? If not, did you fill it after it got up to temp? Thanks.

Great video. Why does the Tacoma manual list 11.3 qt. (11.5 qt. with tow package)?
@Beacon_Offroad

That would be from dead empty. So in reality you'd never get that much out.
