P0420 code is for Cat. I did went with muffler shop he installed three different cat.(Magnaflow). CEL was comming back. Finally one mechanic installed from Orailly (Walker), No more CEL. Cat. is very tricky. I will call him tomorrow and find out Model#.

what about Synthetic blend? I used castrol Synthetic blend 5W30 with 300,500 miles. Hope that helps.

I tried with three different cat. CEL was comming back. Finally one mechanic find from Orailly (Walker), No more CEL. Cat. is very tricky.

i forgot the code, but when i had for O2 sensor, my mechanic requested to replaced both. ( By radiator and fire wall) part was ~110 for each and both are same.

Marcon, that's very good, which year? I have 299,820, and going to finish 300,000 today. Thanks,

I did replaced with Toyota parts ~$110.

both are same , just replace

Just finished 299,000..........

people says you don't needs to. but I do replace when i change my Timing belts (90,000) Hope that helps.

P0133 and P0153 ?

once you remove center top by transmisiion shifter(use flat screw driver to pop), you will see two screws. Hope that helps.

Not arguing, but are you crazy? This is really about inline with people draining there engine oil at like 5K miles or below without anything to support there process. Why would you drain that soon and so little? Unless you are doing longer drain like myself, you are wasting money here along with resources and time. Put in Amsoil go 25K and the fluid will last 2 to 3 times that. I have used Amsoil in trannys that are prone to rebuilds and after 50K miles on the fluid it was like new (color and smell). I would never flush but drain and fill, yes. Without draining your TBN will still be low and TAN much higher. Nevermind the OXD and NOX in there. Nor higher then "drain" wear #'s. That is like draining your coolant reservoir and never draining the complete rad… Toyota fluids are over pimped, over priced fluid and not worth $%^&. I used Castrol domestic car Transmission fluid which meets Dex-III requirements. Every 15,000 drain and refill. next 15,000 i takes to mechanic, who replace filter and refill with my fluid. Presently I have 297,750 miles and runs like new car.

add fluid, turn car on and see for leak.

I have 297,700 on my ES300 with Original. No problem yet........

hsg ? where to check?

Hello, I want to know anybody has installed after market Cat. Con. Brand name, Model# Thanks,

what happen, why you don't like houston tech?

Houston, TX toyota runs special 4 cylinder $199 6 cylinder $299 That's just for timing belt + Labor.

I am not the best to explain, but let me try. There's a one inch by five inch vertical strip that you see. That strip has two tabs on the top. Squeeze those two tabs and pull upward. The plastic cover will slip off after you squeeze the two tabs. Then remove the bottom filter. Pull that halfway and bend and pull the other half out. So now pull the other tab down, and repeat again. Pull that halfway and then bend and pull it out. Hope that makes sense.
