A Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician explains key maintenance items to ensure your journey to high mileage doesn't involve Major Repairs and headaches.

So How to make your Toyota Last Over 300k Miles without major repairs? Well that's a secret that Toyota owners don't often share but it has a lot to do with maintenance and understanding why things are done the way they are!

In this video I will share with you some of the key maintenance items that are typically looked over which make owners wonder why their Toyota didn't last as long as they've hoped for.

We'll start with engine oil and the heavily debated 10k miles oil changes. I'll explain why it's important to change it by time as well.

Then we'll move over to transmission fluid replacements which is another heavily debated subject. I'll explain why replacing the transmission fluid too late is not good and equally replacing it too often is also not good.

I'll also cover some additional fluid and component maintenance like the differential fluid, transfer case fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid and spark plugs.

Lastly I will cover some general owner information.
