Oil filter LIQUI MOLY or OEM Toyota

For oil, if you are changing your oil earlier than the OEM recommended oil change interval of 10k mi / 12 mo, then feel free to use the cheapest GF-6B API-SP certified oil of whatever type it says on your oil cap, along with a Toyota OEM filter, which is almost always cheapest to buy at the dealership's parts counter.

Honda OEM filter (Honda used Tokyo Roki oil filters for my bike ????) I used to buy Motul 7100 4T, however the price on that recently SKYROCKETED… it’s almost 80$cad before taxes for 4L (60$ for 1.05669Gal for you freedom folks).I refuse to pay that much for oil, so I now I buy Liqui-Moly Street 4T. And that’s basically the same price that the Motul USED to cost. 50$ (35 eagles, or whatever) I am aware that Motul 7100 has esters added to it, which Liqui-Moly Street does not, and that technically Motul 7100 is a better oil. But it’s not double the price better… I was willing to pay 60$cad, but not 80$cad lol.If I can find Bel-Ray EXP (another ester blend) at the shop, I’ll buy that too :P but Liqui-Moly seems to be much easier to find.

Running toyota filter.

In comparison, my local mechanic shops charges around the same price but they don't use OEM filters so I rather go to my local dealership.

My '88 Supra is typically just annual oil changes, maybe $40 for synthetic and filter. I've owned it about 14 years.

Last weekend I did DSG fluid and filter, LiquiMoly oil flush and oil change, and tire rotation on my B6 Passat.

I got to Toyota next door for oil and alignment. $170 for both.

Toyota does all the maintenance on my Lexus’s once the freebies at Lexus are done. All charges are a good bit cheaper.

That happened to me too. I went to Dick Dyer Toyota because it's closer to my house and they charged me $100 because they put in a new oil filter

Every. Fucking. One. Of those filters was fucked in there by a gorilla with a 1 inch impact. I fucking swear! What is it with lube monkeys and raping Toyota filters in? Hell, the last one I did still had the filter socket attached because that’s how fucking hard that thing got railed into place.
