Thanks, just recently picked up a corolla XRS and it needs the gasket replacement so i'm doing everything to include water pump, oil pump, chain etc. thanks for the great informative videos

Where was this video three weeks ago when I started this job on my 04 Vibe GT?? Seriously though, thank you. Your videos helped me immensely and now my car doesn’t leak oil everywhere.

I have a 2005 with 36k miles,,, pretty much been a Florida shopping cart it's whole life,, but this year a couple things started to fail,,,, nothing too bad,, a coil here,,, a/c compressor there,,, and one very slight leak from the timing chain cover,,, can't believe you figured out how to do this engine-in. Definitely gonna give it a go now it's cooled down a bit here. Thanks..

I’ve been pondering just taking the engine out to do this job (plus I’d do other stuff while it’s out). Now you got me rethinking that.

This is perfect for me! Definitely needed to do this. Thanks!

Sooo satisfying to do. I cleaned everything really good and no more leaks. Sad I crashed mine last year 😥 waiting for the gr now

Well well well… if it isn’t the same guy who’s video walked me through the transmission swap 😂

Thanks for the vid. My vibe gt has the air intake pipe so I had to use this vid. I documented the steps in MS word as i watched the vid. I appreciate your diy vids on this vehicle/engine. Mine has 300k and i've owned it since 160k so I've faced and had to do all these problems myself. Luckily it's doable, inexpensive, and helps that you show these vids. Also, I have to replace my parking brake cables and I haven't seen a video on that for the 06 vibe/matrix. Can you point me to the right video to be able to see that be done? I bought the cables but have never installed them and I have no parking brake. It would be nice to have parking brakes since I am a bit OCD about my brakes. Thanks.

THANK YOU NOW...ANY HELP ON THIS??why u skip the p.steering pump removel? thatS where im stuck on a 08 vibe 1zz fe. pulled 3 larger bolts n it still tight as if bolted

Hello I do have a specific question. I live in a state with no inspections, I have a vibe gt with the same air tube, but I was told upgrading the ecu to the 2003 gt ecu for lower lift will cause the air injection to not even function anymore. If I’m wrong correct me. My question is can I remove air tube all together after cutting it? First car with one of these.

I have a 2005 Corolla and it is supposedly leaking from the timing chain cover. The shop told me that they would replace the front seal and the gasket for the timing cover and the valve cover gasket. The car has 105,000 miles on it. Do you think that fixing the aforementioned would cause the rear main seal to leak for instance? A friend advised me to use some Lucas Stop Leak, what do you think?

Hey you live in Stockton? I remember seen Stockton streets in one of your videos when you put exhaust. Well question here is I live here in Stockton too and I wonder how much would you charge me to do this to my 2005 Corolla xrs it started to leak a bit of oil from timing chain cover. At 217,000 miles I'm not so sure if is worth it fixing or just keep on running it for a little longer and buy a newer car. Everything works good except this leak. But the cost is going to determine if I keep it or not. Thanks let me know.

Gawd….those exhaust nuts and bolts looked brand spanking new. You lucky California guys…

Thanks Bro, good video Really appreciate your effort. You think you could make one about the Corolla XRS Secondary Air injection System.

In 06:42 this camshaft high lobe scratches is normal mate? I have the same on my 2zzge!

Hi C bass this is Alex from Houston TX. I have a question? what tool do you use to hold down the harmonic balancer from turning while you torque down crankshaft bolt? there is no video on youtube for the celicas or corollas they sell different tools but I need to buy the right one for my celica GTS

Not sure if there is a video up but would this also be possible on a Celica with 2ZZ?

Greetings, how much does it cost to change the gasket of the chain cover and the valve cover?

Why no video on how to torque the crankshaft? That is so important. It would be great to mention before starting the videos what special tools would be needed and the list of tools needed to do the complete job .

Is this the same process for the 1zz fe?

what oil to use in the engine?

Bro, I love your content. I have a question please: I have a 2004 Toyota Matrix Rr and I have been hearing rattling noise coming from the valve cover area. Someone told me to change the tensioner, I did but the problem was not fixed. I opened the valve cover and noticed the chain is a bit loose. What is the easiest way to address this issue please. I just want the rattling noise to be gone lol. Also, would changing the timing BELT tensioner fix this issue. Please let me know if you have any videos. Thanks a lot brother

Ok, just got through replacing my timing chain cover using your videos. Post-repair drive, car will not switch over to the cam settings at 6400 rpm. In fact, the rpm drop off at that point. Suggestions?

Did you sold this XRS?

Toyota Corolla XRS we need me that Japanese car. Everybody wants it to Toyota Corolla S is OK but the Toyota Corolla XRS that’s the car you should buy. People on the KZfaq channel do you know what I’m saying?
