It's great to have you back, Viktor! I followed your instructions to change the transmission fluid in my 2016 model back in 2022. Thanks.

Thank you, Victor. You are an outstanding instructor. I’ve watched many videos on the transmission fluid change procedure, but none is as clear as yours. I’m especially grateful that you showed the gasket and washer part numbers and the tools needed to complete the procedure professionally. Thanks again.

OMG Viktor, I subscribed instantly to your new channel. I found you !!! I was looking for repair videos about 2018 Lexus Rx350 and I can't find you in my subscription. Then I found out what happened to your old channel. But hey here we are again, looking forward to see more 2016-2022 Lexus RX350 videos.👍👍👍

First of all, I want to thank you for your video. It was very detailed and extremely helpful. I just changed the transmission fluid on my 2017 lexus rx 350 and your instruction made the process much easier. The dealership quoted me over $700 for the job, so you saved me a lot of money. Thank you very much again for sharing your knowledge.
