  • HINT:
TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
Contact your TOYOTA dealer for further details.

Slowly pour coolant into the radiator reservoir until it reaches the FULL line.

Press the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the level of the coolant.


If the coolant level is low, add coolant.

Install the radiator cap and reservoir cap.

Bleed air from the cooling system.

  • NOTICE:
  • Before starting the engine to warm up the engine, turn the A/C switch OFF.

Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens. While the thermostat is open, circulate the coolant for several minutes.

  • HINT:
  • The thermostat open timing can be confirmed by pressing the inlet radiator hose by hand, and checking when the engine coolant starts to flow inside the hose.
  • NOTICE:
  • When pressing the radiator hoses:
Wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fans.

Maintain the engine speed at 2,000 to 2,500 rpm.

Press the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand to bleed air.

  • NOTICE:
  • When pressing the radiator hoses:
Wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fans.

Stop the engine, and wait until the engine coolant cools down to ambient temperature.

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

Check the coolant level in the radiator reservoir.


If the coolant level is low, add SLLC to the radiator reservoir FULL line.

20. CHECK FOR ENGINE OIL LEAKS

Start the engine. Make sure that no oil leaks from the connection point of the oil filter cap.

21. CHECK FOR ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE
Water Pump - Installation. 4GR-FSE COOLING. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20
  • NOTICE:
  • Before performing each inspection, turn the A/C switch OFF.
  • CAUTION:
  • Do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.

Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap tester.

Warm up the engine.

Using a radiator cap tester, increase the pressure inside the radiator to 118 kPa (1.2 kgf*cm2, 17 psi), and check that the pressure does not drop.


If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator and water pump for leaks. If no external leaks are found, check the heater core, cylinder block and cylinder head.

22. CHARGE REFRIGERANT

Perform vacuum purging using a vacuum pump.

Charge refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).

  • Standard:
  • 430 +- 30 g (15.17 +- 1.06 oz.)
  • SST
  • 07110-58060(07117-58060,07117-58070,07117-58080,07117-58090,07117-78050,07117-88060,07117-88070,07117-88080)

Water Pump - Installation. 4GR-FSE COOLING. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

  • NOTICE:
Do not operate the cooler compressor before charging refrigerant as the cooler compressor will not work properly without any refrigerant, and will overheat.
Approximately 100 g (3.53 oz.) of refrigerant may need to be charged after bubbles disappear. The refrigerant amount should be checked by measuring its quantity, and not with the sight glass.
23. START ENGINE
24. CHECK FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT

After recharging the refrigerant gas, check for refrigerant gas leakage using a halogen leak detector.

Perform the operation under the following conditions:

Stop the engine.
Secure good ventilation (the gas leak detector may react to volatile gases other than refrigerant, such as evaporated gasoline or exhaust gas).
Repeat the test 2 or 3 times.
Make sure that some refrigerant remains in the refrigeration system. When compressor is off: approximately 392 to 588 kPa (4 to 6 kgf*cm2 57 to 85 psi)
Water Pump - Installation. 4GR-FSE COOLING. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Using a gas leak detector, check the refrigerant line for leakage.

If a gas leak is not detected on the drain hose, remove the blower motor control (blower resistor) from the cooling unit. Insert the gas leak detector sensor into the unit and perform the test.

Disconnect the connector and leave the pressure switch on for approximately 20 minutes. Bring the gas leak detector close to the pressure switch and perform the test.

25. INSTALL V-BANK COVER SUB-ASSEMBLY
Water Pump - Installation. 4GR-FSE COOLING. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

  • NOTICE:
Be sure to engage the clips securely.
Do not apply excessive force or do not hit the cover to engage the clips. This may cause the cover to break.
26. INSTALL COOL AIR INTAKE DUCT SEAL
Water Pump - Installation. 4GR-FSE COOLING. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20
