I have a 2019 RAV4. Here in Finland the maintenance schedule is 15000km or a year. Some say these modern oils don´t last even for this??
I thought that headlights and taillights would be on this. I guess i was wrong.
@@It5M3Again Headlights come as LEDs from the factory. You can't replace them. Backup lights can be replaced: Toyota RAV4 (2019-2022): Auxito Backup / Reverse LED Light Bulbs Installation - kzhead.info/sun/icykqLeAbIGGrIU/bejne.html.
I don’t care what those crows were saying during the tire change - this was a great video!
Did the air & cabin, cost me $40 bucks, dealer wanted $150 😮 thanks for the video. 😅
wow. dealers really want to rip people off. Imagine how many people actually pay them this amount?
One of the most detailed & helpful videos that every Rav4 owner should watch the fact that you remove a functioning battery and a tire just for demonstration purposes made me a new subscriber, thanks mate👍
Thank you for taking your time to make this video. A lot of this is mundane maintenance and you're obviously a professional going through the motions to show us how to do it. But it was a very interesting tutorial for folks that haven't done anything like this before.
What a great video. Just bought a 2024 Rav 4 to be picked up in 3 days. You save me a lot of hours looking through the manual, plus all the part numbers you listed. Have book marked this video.
By th3 way, thank you for including all the part numbers and OEM as well as aftermarket parts and how to find the links for Amazon. Also thank you for providing Canadian links as well as USA.
This is brillant
Brilliant video, love your delivery style, informative, no nonsense. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Thank you for your comment!
Thanks for the time and effort to make this video.
Best video that I've ever seen on Rav4 maintenance, excellent job !
Thank You!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Your video was really needed!
Nice work saludos desde México
Excellent video…thanks for sharing
Great video man! Thanks
Thanks for making v. Nice video
thanks your sharing
Very helpful and clear maintenance tips! Thank you very much, sir! Fellow Vancity neighbour here! 😁🇨🇦
Thank you! Very helpful.
Thank you for all the information and also taking your valuable time to do this video...!!!
Thank you for the helpful video.
Thank you for sharing brother. Great RAV4 videos.
Excellent video.
Thank you very much for the video. The RAV4 maintenance is much easier than my BMW 5 series. I am still waiting for my RAV4 to come.
Thank u for the video
EXCELLENT VIDEO…. 👍👍
Thanks 🙏 a lot you help me with everything I need to know
Strongly suggest a thick towel put immediately under wiper onto windshield. If you accidentally drop wiper especially without blade on You will crack windshield! Speaking from experience! Well shown TY!
Yeah I cracked mine too sigh
Thank you so much for taking your time out to make this video happened. This video is so helpful. Thank you again for your support.
Great video! Thanks
Thank you, nice tips!
Downloading this one for sure. Very insightful. Thank you!
Great video and thanks for including the specs.
Thank you!
Bro thank you for this very useful video especially the high voltage battery filter portion.
I have the same torque wrench as you, but the funniest thing is I also have the same coke bottle funnel.
Whn changing out the battery in the smart key after pulling out the "emergency key " you use that in the slot to twist and open the key's cover. When you change out the 12 volt battery you should use a device to prevent the ECU ( computer " from losing any of the vehicle's settings or use a portable booster box to keep power to the vehicle while the 12 volt battery is being removed. If your vehicle had any Toyota updates put into the computer they will be saved along with any of your personal settings. Otherwise the computer will revert to factory settings that were on the computer before the vehicle was purchased.
You got a new sub. Easy straight to the point. Thank you
Thanks for the amazing video so detail and well explained..
Even though I am not currently a RAV4 owner (I have one on "order", should in my possession by the end of May. Fingers crossed), I enjoy watching our videos, they are very informative, straight to the point and easy to understand. Thank you. You've got yourself a new subscriber.
Thank you! :)
Very interesting and informative. I haven’t had to change the oil in our new RAV4 yet but by your video it appears the filter is mounted “ sideways “? I’m surprised that the oil you put into the filter didn’t partially pour out as you started to screw it back onto the engine. With the cabin air filter I learned a lesson. I was inspecting mine on my 2017 Highlander and while reinstalling the glove box I must have pushed that small black button near the top left side of the frame around the hole for the glove box. A week later I tried to open the power rear hatch and it beeped twice but wouldn’t open. I Googled it and it said that if the rear glass that opens on 2014-2019 Highlanders isn’t closed properly the power rear hatch won’t open. I checked the glass part and it was closed properly. I phoned the Toyota dealership and the service person said the electric rear door struts needed to be replaced. The cost was ridiculous. I found another KZheadr who makes videos on do it yourself projects for the 2014-2019 Highlander and found one for 4 reasons for rear hatch not opening. The 2nd thing he mentioned after the rear opening glass was that button in the glove box area. That button is also in the RAV4 with a power lifting rear hatch. If the button is out the rear hatch won’t work. If 5he button is pressed “ in” the power hatch will function. Saved me spending over $800 for new struts.
Good video, thanks for your work.
Another excellent and informative video Mr Frost. I sure wish you could make a similar one for a Nissan Rogue Sport.
СенкЮ вери мач бро!
Thanks mozorov very useful, I have a rav4 le and am trying to install some very easy ambient lights, hope there's one easy way
Thanks for all these videos. Very useful. How will you clean the hybrid engine? Worried to use certain products and the high voltage cables
Clean the MAF sensor while you have the top of the air box off. When changing the air filter.
Just bought a used 2020 RAV4 LE and this video is proving to be quite the gem. How often should the cabin filter be changed?
Excellent video my friend. Where did you get the wheel lock?
Thanks! Wheel locks and the key came with the vehicle.
@@MorozovAutomotive 2017 Highlandr CLE and new Rav4 Limited hybrid came with wheel locks. Still have never put the 2017 Highlander's locks on and also on out 3 month old "Rav 4
First, the secret bolt is unscrewed. Then the usual bolts are unscrewed. When tightening, the opposite is true. The usual bolts are tightened first, and the secret is the last.
I love your presentations. Even a complete idiot can follow your instructions, you show pretty much each staep. One question I have. If you change the battery, are there internal car steps (turn on key 3 times, or hit any buttons to ensure the car accepts teh battery and works properly? I ask because my BMW required me to go to a dealer to ahve some button reset so all worked properly.
Thanks! No, we did not have to do any extra manipulations in the RAV4 after replacing the battery.
Does it have have a transfer case? I have a hybrid awd 2022
Can you recommend which transmission or how or what to do when the car going downhill? Is it better cruise control or engine braking? Hoping if you can make a video about what to do when rav4 hybrid going downhill.
where do you buy your wheel locks? thnx
Can you show me how to clean me the clean throattle body and reset the idling without scanner for rav4 gen 5 hydrid model?
Hi. What brand of vacuum cleaner are you using. Thanks for sharing your excellent videos.
Thank you for your comment! We are using the Dyson vacuum cleaner.
any vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment. Start on the "flat side " of the filter to remove dust, dirt, pet hair etc. Do that side well as when vacuuming the " inside " of the filter you would be pulling any debris deeper into the filter obstructing the air flow. Check the filter after 2 months, if it's clean, next time go 4 months, of4 months is still clean, do checks once every 6 months. This one maintenance itself can make the hybrid battery last almost forever. Make sure to never cover the filter opening with a pillow , coat or blanket etc. and never spill water on the back seat or lave a bag of ice cubes on the seat iy will damage the hybrid battery which is under the seat.
Which of these are not done in the same way for the HYBRID version?
brilliant video, does this apply to the 2020 Rav 4 hybrid in the US
Thanks! Yes, it does.
Most USA Ravs are made in Canada. Same vehicle, different speedo.
Wait a minute. You have a 10mm socket? How is that possible. I thought they were extinct. 😂
Is the air intake filter for the hybrid only? Thanks
No, it's for gas as well. But they use different kinds of filters.
Would it be ok to use ramps for the oil change as I hardly fit underneath my rav4?
Sure, it will work.
@@MorozovAutomotive and the oil will drain properly?
@@steelcrusher It will since you are raising the front of the vehicle. The drain is located on the back of the oil pan.
@@MorozovAutomotive thank you 👍👍 and all your videos are on point! 👍👍
@@steelcrusher drais better the drain plug is on the back of the oil pan.
Did you have to jack up the car or was there enough clearance to get under without jacking up the car?
The oil change was done without raising the RAV4.
Those window shield blades look difficult to install.
Подскажите где купить эти резинки . Спасибо
У дилера.
After replacing the battery, don’t u need to calibrate the system?
We replaced the battery in the non-hybrid RAV4. Things like clock, radio presets had to be configured again. But we did not have any other issues with the vehicle. Toyota Safety Sense was working fine. Usually the system needs to be calibrated if you replace certain components. In general, it is a good idea to use the battery memory saver when you replace the battery. They have ones with only 9v battery which gets connected into the OBD2 port: OBD ll Connector Vehicle Memory Saver Reliable and Easy 9 Volt Battery Powered - amzn.to/3jRqYNe.
Hello there ! How often do you need to change the engine oil and the air filter on RAV4 ? Some says 5000 miles and some says 1000 miles . Have a answer thank you sir 🙏.
Official Toyota recommendation is to change engine oil every 10000 miles or once per year.
@@MorozovAutomotive Toyota has changed that on my new 2023 to 5000 miles or every 6 months as per my dealer , but thanks for a great video
5000 miles (8000 kms) no matter what Toyota says. Changing the oil is cheap insurance against engine wear.
@@alexwill3722- totally agree don’t go more than 5000 miles. Especially with this RAV4 engine. Going 10,000 miles is the same as saying you don’t need to service your transmission fluid which is a bunch of BS.
Check the air filter every oil change. Change the oil every 5000 to 6000 miles 8000-6000 kms. Air filters don't need to be changed that often unless you do a lot of driving on dirty, dusty roads or there's lots of bugs around when you're driving. My Highlander and my previous Sienna each had the original air filter for 90,000 kms plus. I finally changed them just because and not because the had any debris on them. By the way, if you get your services done at Toyota or any other shops tell them to NOT replace your cabin air filter. There's cheaper $$$$ ones and they are dead easy to change yourself once every year or two once again if you drive in dusty or heavy " bug" areas.
7:35 Filters not the same. Old is better(when new) because have bigger surface - you can count.
Yes, they are different. The new one comes with activated carbon.
Drain plug gasket has to be change every time ?????
It is recommended to replace it every time. You can reuse the same one but there is a chance that it might start leaking.
The so called oil plug GASKET , is actually a CRUSH WASHER… ONE USE ONLY, As when you crush it the first time it will not crush again, hence ONLY ONE USE… 😅
I too have always called these crush washers, however, in the Toyota parts catalog it is called a gasket.
Yeah... I'm not doing all these. lol
I don’t do them all either but the engine air filter is the easiest and quickest - no tools required Literally one minute. Cabin filter next, takes about 2 minutes and no tools - or pay easily 2-3x that at an oil change place or more at the dealer. Also, never pay for the fuel treatment they recommend. You can buy a bottle at autozone for $5 and put it in yourself - or be charged $20 to have the oil change place do it for you. Those 3 things will save you about $100 if you diy and will take all of 5 minutes total.
What a dumb design filter on bottom so all the oil drips out when remove it. and hatch needs to be removed. These designers arent very smart.
You were cleaning the WRONG side with your vacuum cleaner. The dust is sitting on the cabin side!
We cleaned BOTH sides of the filter 19:49. ;)
@@MorozovAutomotive start with the "cabin side" and do a good job. The back just skim over it and also do the plastic cover. and around the lip of the opening where the cover sits; Don't poke anything around inside
FRAM ??? Wtf why?! Use a good oil filter K&N only or better.
Dude ! Seriously? Take the filter off and let all drain BEFORE putting Plug back in!!!!! At lest u didn't take the filter off First like some no nothings!!
What’s this guy thinking???
