Toyota RAV4 (2019-2025): How To Jack Up And Do Tire Rotation In The Toyota RAV4?

In this video, we will show how to jack up the 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 Toyota RAV4 and perform tire rotation.

On the All-Wheel Drive Toyota RAV4 with non-directional, uniform tires the rearward cross pattern is used. It means that the front wheels are moved to opposite sides of the rear axle, while the rear tires are moved to the forward axle. And kept on the same side of the vehicle. This will guarantee even wear and prolong the lifespan of your tires.

If your tires have arrows on the sidewall, this means that these tires are directional and can only be rotated from front to back or back to front on the same side of the vehicle.

Tire rotation should be done every 5000 miles or 8000km.

Wheel Lug Nut Torque - 76 ft-lbf.

Tools Used: 2 Ton Hydraulic Jack, 3 Ton Jack Stands, 21 mm Socket, 1/2-in Drive Torque Wrench, Wheel Blocks.

RECOMMENDED TOOLS:

After you have rotated the tires you will need to initialize the tire pressure warning system (if equipped).

For vehicles WITHOUT tire inflation pressure display function:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine.
2. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified cold tire inflation pressure level (Front - 35 psi, Rear - 35 psi). The tire pressure warning system will operate based on this pressure level.
3. Turn the engine switch to ON.
4. Go to "Vehicle Settings". Select “TPWS” in the vehicle settings. Select "Set Pressure". Then press and hold "OK" button.
5. “Setting Tire Pressure Warning System” will be displayed on the multi-information display and the tire pressure warning light will blink 3 times. When the message disappears, initialization is complete.

For vehicles WITH tire inflation pressure display function:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine for 20 minutes or more.
2. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified cold tire inflation pressure level (Front - 35 psi, Rear - 35 psi). The tire pressure warning system will operate based on this pressure level.
3. Start the engine.
4. Go to "Vehicle Settings". Select “TPWS” in the vehicle settings. Select "Set Pressure". Then press and hold "OK" button.
5. “Setting Tire Pressure Warning System” will be displayed on the multi-information display and the tire pressure warning light will blink 3 times. When the message disappears, initialization is complete. A message is displayed on the multi-information display. Also, “--” is displayed for inflation pressure of each tire on the multi-information
display while the tire pressure warning system determines the position.
6. Drive the vehicle at approximately 25mph (40 km/h) or more for approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
When initialization is complete, the inflation pressure of each tire will be displayed on the multi-information display. Even if the vehicle is not driven at approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more, initialization can be completed by driving for a long time. However, if initialization does not complete after driving for 1 hour or more, park the vehicle in a safe place for approximately 20 minutes and then drive the vehicle again.

I very much appreciate that Toyota (and Honda as well) incorporates front and rear jack points in their vehicles. Makes DIY maintenance so much easier.

This, no kidding, has to be the best tire rotation video for AWD crossovers. It is simple and clear - not an easy task. You did a great job showing the step by step process and gave us very clear video of the jack points, jack stand locations, and everything else. I know it's a simple video, but great work on it!

[broadwayn]

Thank you! This is a truly professionally produced training video.

[waynebinky]

Nice. No annoying music in the background.

[emilianorangel]

Thank you for showing exactly where the jack points are. Great video

[nukestrom]

Came to see the jacking locations. Great video

[LibertyTree]

Nice Video guys. I hope you make many more educational videos because you produced a straight forward and easy to understand procedure. Thank you!

[BrownStain_Silver]

Excellent video. You should torque in a star pattern and then circular pattern after to ensure you didn't miss torquing any lug nuts.

[neiljarvis]

Really good car specific useful, detailed and informative video!

[AlexPrevost]

Came for the jack support locations, stayed for the synchronized tire rotation.

[Owenlaw]

Thank you, very helpful and professional

I would like to add that for snow tires, we should do it a little differently. Since each snow tire has its rotation direction, they should always stay on the same side of the vehicle -- so "rotation" for snow tires is actually switching front and rear tires on the SAME side of the vehicle.

76ft lbs is the torque value you came here for.

[wjm]

Use the hydraulic jack still just incase

[MichaelSmith-]

Thank you for this video! I am about take delivery of a 2024 RAV4 Adventure on 11/15 and this video answers my questions on how & where on the RAV4. I always do tire rotations myself and your method is exactly how I do mine. Great job!

Can you also do a video on a Rav4 2013-2018 model? I am having trouble finding the rear jack point..
Thank you!

[Luckys]

Can you link the tools you used? Those lug nuts really came off easily with that wrench.

[sebastianmisund]

How high do you lift the Toyota? I wonder how high my Jack has to be

[cenkaytekin]

What is the max height of your floor jack reaching?

[knight]

What about TPMS sensor how will you change so the car computer will know which is which ?
