And another follow up, to round off this square. CVJ Axle came in, replaced. So that is all good now. Did another ATF drain and fill this morning. Things are running good and as expected. Initially I posted there was gear slippage when shifting around 40-50mph Maybe w/ the ATF drain and...

Thanks for this I will give it a go.... Gotta crawl back under there when my cv axle comes in, so I will see if I can knock it out then.

Follow up with this Whole issue may have been my front wheel bearings. Initially started out with the rumble strip sound..... Eventually I heard a noise, maybe like a pop.... And then sound just got worse So began to thank rear axle wheel bearing. Took it to Firestone to be sure and let them...

Damn, didn't think of smelling it. Just did the gear oil change. And did how you said, fill til it came out the fill hole. Question on CV axles. Should there be a little slop/play where the axle goes into the housing? I am assuming there should be, as it is that way on both axles. One other...

Got another question Happened today. Driving down the road, I hear a noise. Not sure how to describe it But then I start getting a noise after that which is made on every revolution. So I am thinking CV Axle. Passenger side. I have a 3" lift up front. I replaced driver side with a CVJ axle, I...

Thank you for the thread link A lot of reading I am doing LOL But it looks like I will do a drain and fill a few times.... maybe add the Instant Shutter Fix stuff as well....see if that helps it.

Another question, aside from transmission At times, I am hearing a weird sound....almost like the sound you here when on rumble strips on the interstate. Also maybe a slight grinding feeling when I hear the sound. Any ideas what that is? Axle seal? Wheel bearing? I believe it is coming from...

I am hoping it isn't a transmission rebuild, I just don't have the money for that. So I am going to try my luck w/ the cheaper options first. That I can do myself. But so far, the issue only started happening recently.....and even then it isn't as bad as the issue you had. I had my 4Runner...

Roger that Thank you and it has been ordered. :)

Yes I have been reading some instructions linked to in the threads mentioned here, as well as a YouTube vid I came across So will read some more and make my step-by-step notes and do it

Will do Thank you.

Looks like I have the 1GR-FE engine

Dude!! Great link Thank you I have a 2008, V6 SR5 I did crawl under and found the trans fill bolt, does appear that WS is on it, from what I can see...very hard angle to see So I ordered that fluid Also ordered a pump to pump it back in.

On Amazon, This is the fluid I need for sealed transmissions? Toyota 00289-ATFWS Automatic Transmission Fluid,

Ok, correction Just checked... But no transmission fluid dipstick. So I used the other ATF? If I do a drain and re-fill of the fluid, what is the best way to go about it?
