Recommended Posts

Hi guys I've posted in rav 4 forum with no joy,but I presume engines are the same. I have a 2008 d4d 2ad ftv engine on a rav 4. I Have drained a lot of coolant from radiator but i cannot find the engine block drain plug. Its driving me mad. Im no novice to replacing radiators etc etc but not on this engine. Any help would be much appreciated. I have undertray off and have been under it for hours but cannot find it. Does it even have one?

Thanks

Matt

  1. Loosen the radiator drain cock plug.

     

    HINT:
     
    Collect the coolant in a container and dispose of it according to the regulations in your area.

     

    Remove the radiator reservoir cap.

  1.  

    CAUTION:
     
    Do not remove the radiator reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are still hot.
    Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.

     

    Loosen the cylinder block drain cock plug.



  1.  
  2.  

    HINT:
     
    The plug is on the backside of the generator on the exhaust manifold side.

Thanks anyway but I could not find it. My manifold is to rear of engine so no way I can get to anything there as have no ramp. Any left in the block will have to stay there.
