Oil filter OEM Toyota or Mobil
I own a 2021 CX-30 non turbo and have been using the Mobil 1 Extended performance oil filter along with Mobil 1 Extended Performance oil since my 1st oil change without any issues.
Drive way. Gorilla ramps, harbor freight tools, mobil 1 filter and oil. Gotten 60k trouble free miles so far
To give you perspective, I do my own oil change for $37 (full synthetic mobile one + filter)
10 quarts of Mobil1 and a Motorcraft oil filter, FL-500s. A lot of the you ger generation love the new Pennzoil Platinum Ultra full syn, but to each their own. I change mine religiously at 5k on my '20 GT, I'm up to 20k miles, it's has the tick but it's sporadic and hardly noticeable to me.
I can get 5 quarts of Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic at Walmart for $24 and a Fram Ultra Synthetic Oil filter for $11 ($12 for Mobil1 Extended Performance). So, $35 for a change plus Walmart's Tire and Lube will take the used oil (so will all part stores by me).
The extended performance of Mobile 1 or Castrol and I use the extended mobile filter.
Then replace at 10k mi.
It’s a reliable brand. Any major oil brand should work well, as long as you stick to reputable names. I have my oil changed elsewhere and use different brands with no issues or noticeable difference between them, but I always make sure to buy the original oil filter directly from Toyota in advance.
DYI. Kirkland synthetic for $18 per 5 quart jug and $12 for a Mobil 1 filter.
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
I couldn't do my own oil change last time since the weather was pretty bad and I was long over due. Brought it to Toyota of Bellevue, they had overtighten the oil filter to the point where I had to punch a screwdriver through it to get it out when I did my own change. Wouldn't want to take my car there again.
