Edit: this is a Rav4, not a Camry (like I mention later in the video). Slip of the tongue in the beginning (I was working on a Camry before filming). It’s being fixed now, thanks for watching!

Scotty should start a second career as a symphony conductor.

Who else listened to Scottie for so long you know exactly what he is going to say and you listen anyways.

[alfr]

He's like my Italian Brother-in-law; if you tie his hands, he can't talk. Love your work, Scotty.

[dchambers]

Scotty, friend, my six year LOVES your videos... <fast forward>.... only now he's eleven and rebuilds lawn mower carbs and knows how engines and cars, chainsaws, and many machines work. You helped teach him (and millions) lessons that will serve him for a lifetime.

God Bless you Scotty Kilmer!

(from a proud Arkansas Papa).

I love the way you talk. I am being entertained just by your voice, your tone, the tempo when you talk, and the way talk fast like an auctioneer. Your sense of humor just does it all for me!

Just heard you say "4-hp Evinrude!" I was the project engineer on this outboard during the early 1980's. I can attest that it was extremely sluggish pushing any kind of a larger boat. However, I would like to state that I saw it push a 1-man canoe at 15 mph, which according to my technician, who had formerly worked as Evinrude's race technician, that this was the squirreliest boat he ever operated because of the speed and very narrow beam of the canoe. I do very much enjoy your videos.

Scotty's last video: Why I'll never buy anything but a Toyota.

[MisterGames]

My preference is for a Manual. Less chance of theft, cheaper to fix if it breaks.

You forgot to explain a very important difference between CVTs and e-CVTs (found on Toyota hybrids). Toyota eCVTs are just as reliable as the old 6 speed transmission championed here. Toyota eCVTs don't use any belts or pulleys, just a planetary gear transaxle.

[pootispiker]

It's important to note that hybrid CVT transmissions don't use a pushbelt system. They use two motor-generators with clutch packs to control the speed of the output shaft through planetary gears. They are dead simple and prove to be a solid design. Ford has used it since they first started using a CVT hybrid. Any eCVT is just a geared CVT with no belts and pulleys.

[eliash]

My 1999 Sienna transmission is only 4 gears and still shifts like a dream til today :) . Back when they didnt care about speed and show off as much as reliability .

[facelessman]

The fluid is good for the lifetime of the transmission, what they don't tell you is that the lifetime is shortened by not changing the fluid.

[phitownhustler]

Spot on Scotty. I have been warning folks about CVTs for years and is why I switched from Hondas to Toyotas. Wifes 2015 RAV 4 has been flawless so far and I do all the maintenance. Change the oil every 3k and did the trans fluid at 50k and flushed the cooling system at 60k. Brakes and tires is the rest I have done. Just bought a new 4 runner because it has the rock solid v6 and the 5 speed transmission. It will outlast me

[dustintyler]

I rebuild transmissions in Toledo, Ohio and I can’t tell you how many I get that are broken/burnt up but have brand new fluid in them or that stop slip additive junk that swells the seals. Seems to me like people don’t want to change their fluid until the trans starts giving them problems. Thank you for all the great content Scotty keep the videos coming!

[johneckstein]

My 2008 Prius (purchased new) had 228, 000 miles on it with the original CVT transmission, never needed service other than a few fluid changes. This car, in total has needed less service than any other car I have had (I am 74 and have had quite a few cars). While my wife has had several cars with automatic trans illusions, this is also the first car of mine without a manual transmission. It is certainly less fun to drive, but has been incredibly reliable.

[smallfists]

This guy is goated! Wish I had someone like him to teach me all these things, instead I had a father that would yell at me for trying to help even though he had no idea what he was doing.

Main reason I just started to do my on DIY past several years because I got blamed for using tools and misplacing things I never even touched! Even tools I gave my father when I did trade work as a plumber and an electrician got blamed for misplacing things when I haven’t been to the house for weeks!

TYVM,

The father figure we all needed!
