Рет қаралды 257,509
Күн бұрынHere's what's inside the new Toyota RAV4 and how it works! In this video, we check out the 2019 RAV4 from a purely mechanical perspective, taking a detailed look under the hood and underneath the vehicle!

11:56 Exhaust System
12:23 Steering System
12:52 Transmission and Drivetrain

15:14 Blooper
The 2019 Toyota RAV4 comes with a 2.5L A25A-FKS 4 cylinder engine with an 8 speed automatic transmission. Interesting aspects of the new RAV4 include:
- Electric water pump and coolant shut off valves
- Active grille shutter
- EGR system
- High pressure pump for direct injection
- EVAP canister inside the fuel tank
- Brake booster vacuum pump & electric brake booster
- McPherson front suspension
- Multilink rear suspension (TNGA platform)
- Electric steering with rack-mounted motor
- Electric variable valve timing actuator and gearset
- Active engine mounts
- Transfer case, differential and driveshaft for AWD/4WD system
- Transmission fluid is serviceable despite not having a pan
- Airbag door skin pressure sensor
Overall the RAV4 is easy to service for owners wanting to conduct their own maintenance and repairs. The quality of some components is sometimes questionable but on par with what the auto industry has moved towards recently.

SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN A MEDAL. i just bought a 2019 rav4 adventure. As someone who works on/modifys cars themselves, having this video helps out a ton to understand what work can/needs to be done in the future and most importantly, what can be handled at home. Love that the suspension in this vehicle isn't overly engineered, spark plugs/coils are easy to replace as are on most toyotas. I was previously driving an 01 Pathfinder and although its an awesome vehicle, spark plugs were a bit of a pain to get to.

I think most of us were hoping for something a little tougher than a car, but didn't want something as work-specific as a truck. So maybe not off-roading, but could hop the occasional curb or survive a heavily-rutted rural road if need be.

Tell that to my RAV4! It gets me up and down steep forest roads, some fairly rocky "jeep trails" per maps (I certainly classify them as such), across creeks, etc. But it is no rock crawler and I have turned around when it got to that point. But it does exactly what I bought it to do, get me places average vehicles cannot get so I can hike and bike. Great review. Thumbs up.
@user-tb7rn1il3q 2 жыл бұрын
JJ, pretty sneaky deleting your comment so I can’t reply. I received the email, so I’m going to respond anyway. The 5th Gen RAV4 is more off road capable than many body on frame SUVs. I’ve had mine in the woods in the mud. I was on a game trail, not a gravel road. This would have completely destroyed a Civic or any sedan if it could even get traction. The 5th Gen RAV4 is a tough reinforced unibody utility.

I have a 2020 RAV4. Didn't know it had both fuel injection systems. I like the plastic under the front end. It keeps things cleaner. You can buy Mobil 1 0W-16 at Walmart. I changed the original oil and filter using Toyota oil and filter for the warranty. I think Toyota used Mobil 1 at the one year " First oil change." The actual first oil change was in May of last year. "Oil is cheap, engines are expensive!" Many things I've noticed in 15 months of ownership. One I like is put the key in the ignition (mine is the base unit, no hybrid or extra flashy stuff) and before you turn the key on, the fuel pump primes the system. You can hear it. I replaced the interior lighting from dull incandescent bulbs to LED bulbs. Much better at night. The electric P/S is so nice and smooth! No pump, hoses, fluid, rack valves or other problems! I put Weather Tech floor mats front and rear, also cargo mat with the drop down "bib" to protect the outside. Last item is the upper cargo cover over the rear cargo area. Keeps things "under cover." Fuel mileage is very good. I like the MPG gauge between the tach and speedo. You can keep the "right now" mileage high which helps at the gas pump. Surprisingly peppy engine, with good acceleration! Step into the gas, it takes off quickly! However let up quickly after stepping into it, there's a definite amount of lag time before the transmission shifts to a higher gear, so the engine is left at a higher RPM. It is a light weight unibody vehicle which means you hear the road and feel the bumps while driving. But OVERALL, I'm very impressed with the vehicle and like it a lot! And the SiriusXM radio is GREAT also!

Love the detailed look at the engineering. That engine layout under the engine cover is way neater than the Ford Escape, which no longer has a cover and it looks like crap.

@@speedkar99 The hybrid is the one outselling just about every vehicle on the street. The gas rav4 is fine, but it's not the main attraction. People would appreciate your approach and perspective.

speedkar99 because it’s AWD by default with better power, low RPM turk and still better efficiency. And only 800 bucks for all that.

"good luck finding 0w16 at Walmart" . You're right but I bet any money the dealer just throws 0w20 or 5w20 in it

I worked at a shameful shop attached to an infamous corporate villain that you are surely familiar with and we were told to just fill 'em with 0w20. I learned a lot in that shop, all concluding with: DO YOUR OWN MAINTENANCE IF YOU WANT YOUR CAR TO LAST.

When all new toyotas use 0w16 why would a dealer service center will have a problem buying 0w16 in bulk?

Should be a very reliable, durable vehicle. No real failure points, and everything's pretty easily accessible (except for the steering rack). Great job, Toyota (and speedkar99).

The steering rack is electric and they shouldn’t fail as often as the Fords do.

Cool video. Informative for most. On a side note. That foam engine cover isn't just any foam. Its engineered for heat dissipation as well as sound damping due to the loud direct injectors. A ton of people who have never heard direct injectors think their motor has a tick
