Oil filter VALVOLINE or OEM Toyota

I use Valvoline advanced full synthetic or quaker state full synthetic, and those oils seem to hold up very well (ive tried plenty of different brands) and you can buy it anywhere for top off oil. I have been interested in using liquimoly though. For filters, i use k&n, wix, or the nissan oem.

I did my FJ’s oil change for the first time myself a few weeks ago. All the aftermarket filters seem to not be as good as OEM, and they cost more. Got mine from the dealer, with the gasket, for under $9

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.

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.

Go on Groupon and look for shops in your area. I get coupons for Valvoline and they’ve always been good to me. I save a good bit as well!

I just put Valvoline full synthetic high mileage 5w-20 with a motorcraft filter in my 2011, and it runs so smooth now. I used to have some noise on startup but nothing now.

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 dont think valvoline is using a quality filter with the required oil.
