This is the max miles number

But your still only cycling in a small amount of new flyid

​@@mke6489you must be insane. If I had previous gen Tundra I wouldn't sell it for any money. That thing is built better and will last longer than any of the new trucks on the market. Of course I'm thinking from my perspective, which is taking care of my cars and doing all the maintenance on time. If you don't want to do that then buying or leasing a new vehicle every 3 to 5 years is probably the way to go.

I think in the past he said not to change the transmission fluid if there are no signs because you may cause more problems

@@westfield90 that’s for higher mileage. if it’s at 125,000 on original fluid, and there’s no issue, that’s when you don’t touch it. Changing the fluid at higher mileage may flush and remove some of the material built up on the clutches. Then leading it to start slipping later down the road. If the cars at 30k-80k, you might as well change it, especially if there’s no issues, to get ahead of the maintenance and set the car up for a longer life. Better sooner than too late with these automatics

$43K

I got a quote for a transmission on my crown vic and they wanted $5k so I would say this is a good deal.

​@@silence19999lol crown vic.. that's a 2000 job. Don't be fooled

@@dbdnrbdb the cheapest guy I could find anywhere was just under 3k. And he didn't have much of a warranty on his.

I got quoted 7k for a awd transmission replacement on a 2013 Lexus gs350. Lexus dealership is a rip off. I was so mad when I learned the trans fluid could be replaced, but they always told me it’s sealed and for lifetime. I didn’t understand what that meant, and now I’m paying the price.

@@dohc1974 no fluid is ever lifetime. Keep fresh fluids in the car and it will last a very long time 😀

and a dealer will still want $40,000 for it...

@@XX-gm5dk english please

How much was the new transmission? The one every single idiot KZfaqr pretends doesn’t exist???

I have a 2006 with 313,000k miles lifted with king coil overs fix shox in the back but the ac blows cold 🥶 no check engine light 💡 it’s a beast

Its always a buddy of mine. 😂. Its a bunch of hog shit

Thanks for sharing your experience.

As an original owner, I too have the 2007 5.7L Tundra only thing that needed replacing for the 240K miles I have on it is the fuel pump and fan belt. Next thing that needs some TLC is a leaky valve cover. Other than that bullet proof design no tranny problems slips nothing. I don't tow very often

I have 07' highlander leaks some oil stiil running, cold ac with 250k still running great. I am looking to replace some suspension parts, head gaskets, and valves cover.

As long as you have an old one that hasn't had its frame rot away. Very rare to find an older Toyota truck that isn't rotted out so bad it's dangerous.

The old ones are better anyway

👏👏👏👏

Key being properly maintained. Hope the other fluids have been replaced in a timely fashion over the years and they are not just going by the mileage.

This truck will not go another 100k, I give it a couple years the way its being treated and abused, the rust is going to end this truck long before the engine gives up. This was a major mistake to put a trans in it with the level of rust and as he said the frame already has some questionable rust spots which means it's on borrowed time already.

how much is a new exhaust on that truck? @@riverpirate1022

@@riverpirate1022- yea it made more sense to repair the old unit and even after ghetto rigging it back into place, it could have easily lasted them another few years of use (that’s about all this truck has left in it). Looks like a complete turd.

$4000 for a working full size truck is a bargain. A new Tundra financed can be close to $100k by the time it is paid for.

Famous indeed.

They never break on 5th Gen 4Runners, even with original fluid, high miles, and abuse.

You’re very welcome! That was a very well cared for 4runner. Enjoy it with health.

Was it a 98 - 01 model?

@@BigD481 this one was actually an 05 v6. the 98-01 certainly seemed to have the least hardy of all

@@SplosionMovies. A family friend had his 00 Odyssey transmission replaced for free at 70K. I had an 03 Acura recalled for transmission updates. A lot of Honda transmission problems late 90’s early 2000’s. It didn’t create a big stink because Honda took care of all its customers.

I owned one also and it was a great truck but I got rid of it when gas prices when super high back in the 2000s. It was a mistake and I regret selling it. But I have a 2000 tundra now with 147000 miles on it and it still runs like a top. The body is beat up a bit but I've fluid filmed the underside and it is still in great shape.

Replace the lower ball joints every 100k miles just in case. The design is poor on that model and your wheel will fold up under the truck when it breaks. It happened to me at 189k miles. I still have the truck though it has over 400k miles now.

Curious about the "sealed" transmissions. Does that mean when they go they are gone and you just have to replace the transmission or the vehicle

im with ya ... after a streak of bad fords, i switched, never going anywhere else except toyota now. 2015 be surprised if i replace before 2035

@@realbadashno, it depends on where you live and how you use it. If not for the rust I think they could have rebuilt this one, parts are hard to get and as a business truck this was the best and quicker solution plus it’s a tax write off so it actually doesn’t cost the company anything. IMHO🙏🏻🇺🇸💯🤙🏻

We live in rust belt with snow and lots of salt/ sand spread on roads throughout the winter. Most people have had best results from using products like rust check or krown with a yearly application needed with the cost of usually around $100 to $130 depending on the size of the vehicle. Cheep insurance compared to body work due to rust through body from salt. I’ve seen vehicles 20 and 30 years old with proper application with great success with using these types of products.

There is a huge amount of sodium and magnesium chloride dumped on the roads each year. Vehicles are essentially going through a salt bath. Rustproofing the bodies has improved their lifespan, but all the underside stuff takes a heck of a beating

No matter what, the corrosion protection can only last so long. Better than it used to be but they will all succumb eventually. Once you start seeing substantial rust like on this truck though, you're done. The protection has been exhausted and the rust will take off like you wouldn't believe. Inside of 4 years this truck will be completely rotted out.

No brainier, too many symptoms and neglected maintenance. Truck has good FMV even putting transmission in. Owner made good decision based upon comparative cost for new vehicle.

There’s the fine line between getting scammed and getting great service.

I know right, especially when a new truck may cost upward of 50 - 60K

Especially a Toyota Like New one, with torque converter! Too bad Owner/You can't replace that entire exhaust will laid bare. I mean, keeping ahead of things, what would that cost? $1500? Budgets are hard, but by time this is finished it orobably will be good another 15 years if the frame holds out. Well done.

Same, I thought that price was extremely reasonable. That charcoal canister on the other hand raised an eyebrow.

I love my 2001 Toy 4.7 SR5. Live up here in Oregon. Oil, transmission and lower dif gets babied. 211,000 miles.

Dream of owning a nice Tacoma or Sequoia of that vintage. One of my cousins has a nice one from back in the day, but he surely doesn't appreciate what he has. Minimal care, lets everyone drive it, breaks my heart. Just climbed back out from under my rusty land 09 Camry, after replacing the rusted oil pan and gasket for the second time. Was lucky to get those eroded/rusted bolts out of there, the rusty oil pan had just started to weep. For my first attempt, being an old fart, decided to go with a fel pro gasket to make sure everything sealed up nicely. Big mistake, it leaked immediately. Pulled the new oil pan off again yesterday only to find that the cheesy fel pro gasket had actually split along the bolt holes in a few places. Yeah, I know, "you overtightened the screws". But only used a 1/4" drive ratchet and snugged the screws down evenly/gently. I bought another fel pro gasket, but also bought the $30 Toyota sealer/glue. Decided to got with the Toyota glue after seeing how the cheesy gasket had split. Was as careful as I could be, and let the stuff dry for an hour before adding oil and starting it up again. Drove it home from my friends nice garage, no apparent leaks. Mustered the courage to jack it up again this morning and climb under for a complete inspection. CCN's blessings must have come through for me, dry as a bone.... Can't wait for the next DIY chapter or replacing the radiator. I guess it's time to save up for another car, I think I have gotten all the use I can get out of the 09 2.4L (not rebuilt-didn't burn enough oil to qualify), with 205K miles. Really don't want a new Camry, don't like the tranny, and can't get a 5 speed. Oh, how I wish I could find another 2000 V6 Solara....

Those oem shocks lasted this long I see brand new GMCs at work with X31 packages on Rancho Shocks that are leaking with 14,000 miles on them I know tons of mechanics with cool Trophy Truck Tacomas that are on King suspension and cry about how they have to rebuild them so often the stock OEM suspension on my Corolla has been solid for 180000 Miles I've caught are in that fucking thing at least four times if 0 is Grandma antennas a rental that little red Corolla lives its life at 7

@@yzrippinYour stock shocks have been shot for a long time. Stock shock replacement interval is 40K on every regular vehicle. It's common to go about 60k on original factory ones but more than that your driving on worn out blown shocks.

@@riverpirate1022 I don't think you read me right I catch air in my Corolla on the stock shocks at 180,000 miles and it's still rides perfectly fine as someone who has multiple trucks and off-road toys motorcycles and side-by-sides jeeps and I've cracked leaf springs and snapped frames.on heavy-duty Isuzu cabover trucks I think I know what a blown suspension feels like bro

Changed your trans fluid yet?

Keep an eye on the frame, as I own a 2006 Tacoma from the rustbelt and Fluid Film has kept the rust from progressing too much.

@@02markcal Thanks. I've heard of frame corrosion disasters. Fortunately, I live in a no salt area in western Washington and the truck underside looks in great shape.

Agreed!!!

It's a Toyota remanufacturer transmission that's not rebuilt so that's a much better option

You're getting it inspected *after* purchasing? Good luck.

@@absolutelynonameslef yes, purchased from a Lexus dealership. Carfax showed great maintenance history.

Smart kid! 👍

Years don't matter. It's a Toyota right? Just broken in right? Chevy Thunder.

👏👏👏👏

No reason, what’s done is done and it’s a business truck so maintenance is probably not high on the to-do list!

On the flip side of that a lot of police fire and rental fleets get more and better service than private vehicles so this being a work truck doesn't necessarily mean that it gets neglected it should actually be more consistently cared for them other vehicles especially more comprehensively cares for so I think that this truck is the exception to the rule

@@Michael-db4sn That’s true. My friend worked at a car rental place and those cars received zero maintenance. Rent them out for two years and then sell them as-is. This is why I’ll never buy one.

You couldn't be more wrong and the fact you admitted to buying a pos Buick then dumped money into proves you have no clue what your talking about. This truck is very rusted out, and he even said there are questionable frame rust spots, this truck is not long for this world. A used one without rust would have been the way to go here.

1 hour is about right unless they are rusted. I've had to cut the bolts out on my shocks before living in the rust belt which if you've done it adds a considerable amount of time to the job. I'm guessing they quote on the high end and if the get it done faster adjust the time, this man doesn't strike me as someone that would rip a customer off. But like everyone else I have been wrong from time to time.

The top mount on the rear shocks on the Tundra can be very difficult and unusually time consuming

Of course you can. Probably all highway miles

Yes ...and I would ASAP. I would also never go past fifty thousand on the next transmission fluid changes..

Duly noted, thanks y’all My wife granny drives it with occasional spirited driving, but a lot of it is indeed highway miles.

If truck is an abused workhorse changing fluids early based on use not mileage is usually the way to go.

Maybe not prevented, but I would wager it would have lasted much longer. There is no such thing as "lifetime" fluid. The CCN has said this.

There is a Ford Maverick who put 90k miles on his 2 year old truck and his transmission failed. I'm guessing abuse

@@Michael-db4snlol you guessed right , abuse. I seen that youtuber he even confessed he didn’t maintain it

It would’ve lasted longer than 108k miles if the transmission had regular service, but I don’t know about preventing it entirely. I have a Toyota with 237,000 miles and all I have to do is preventative maintenance.

Yup, 2UZ in my 09.

I was looking for this comment! Thank you. Going to look at an 08' with the 4.7, 99k miles and frame replaced. Would have been pretty upset if I got there and it didn't have that engine lol.

I think he said 108,000

With respect, 108,000 miles is closer to 100,000 miles than 200,000 miles.
