Peter I’ve watched you for years and this is my first comment. You are very informative and I think all of us appreciate your thorough descriptions of the repairs. We love our Toyotas and we love watching you :-)

I found this video to be extremely useful in diagnosing my leak. The removal process however was not the same. I have an '05 Toyota tundra SR5. The 14 mm bolt being removed at 3:29 in the video is one of four that hold the AC compressor mounted to a bracket. The removal of the bracket shown at 4:16 does NOT expose the nut shown at 4:28. In order to expose this nut, the AC compressor bolts must be taken out, the compressor moved but not disconnected or removed, and the mounting bracket unbolted and removed to expose this nut. The vehicle shown as a Sequoia and as I mentioned I have a Tundra. Hope this is helpful to anyone trying to DIY this repair. I had to find it out the hard way.

Great video. A few people were asking about torque specs for those bolts. Per the Hayes manual torque spec for all 3 bolts is 168 in/lbs ( 14 ft/lbs) Hope that helps everyone

Does this certainly apply to the v8 engine? I also saw the same torque specs in the Haynes and Chilton manual, but they both refer to the 4.0L V6 engine while they have no specs for the V8.🤷♂️ (I believe they put the specs in the wrong section. None of the V6 engines have an oil filter bracket assembly.)

Thanks again for the great video. I just did this job and learned a few lessons for the beginner doing it on the driveway: It is best to loosen the coolant hoses first while the adapter is still bolted on. I was not able to swap the gasket with the coolant hoses still attached, so I had to mount the adapter back on to remove the hoses, because they were stuck pretty tight and I needed some leverage to get them off. Also, have extra OEM hose clamps in case one breaks (happened in my case). As a side note, I learned that screw type hose clamps are not recommended, as they will loosen over time. The OEM gasket seemed to fit better than the Mahle, which I had as a backup. Lastly, be mindful how to clean surfaces and gasket area. Break cleaner apparently attacks plastic, rubber and paint, so a milder degreaser would be better. The job took me 3 hours total, and I think I would be able to do it in less than 1 hour the second time around (hopefully not needed for a while :-) ).

Love your videos!!! I can't get mine off of my 2001 Tundra as the ac compressor blocks one bolt. Worked on it for a few hours coming back and looking at your video and instructions many times. That top bolt is UNDER the ac compressor. Tried loosening the ac comp bolt and could barely see the bolt head under it with a light and mirror. Do you know if I have to remove the ac comp on Tundra 4.7? I thought that they were the same, but it seems that this arrangement is different. Please keep doing these fabulous videos!!!

BTW, I saw in another video that there is one more gasket between the oil cooler piece (the round piece with the hoses connected to it) and the main body of the assembly. That gasket has a diameter similar to the oil filter. Has anyone had issues with that?

I have this same leak. Started 2 weeks after an oil change and would only show up when the engine heated up (and made the oil thin). I did the repair and it seemed fixed...until it heated up and started to leak, somewhat worse than before. I don't think I mis-seated the gasket, but might not have torqued down the bolts correctly. Going to try again with a new $2 gasket. Should I also add some RTV?

That's more of a Ford and Dodge thing. Actually any engine that has an external oil filter housing bracket. On Ford 5.4 and 4.6, you have the two oil passages right next to the water inlet. Oil, being higher pressure than coolant, enters the cooling system and causes puking at the relief cap. At least coolant doesn't go in the oil. Still way too common. A gasket with impregnated silicone o rings is not enough. Lasts about 7 years tops.
