Oil filter Wix or OEM Toyota
Oem filter. Ive tried Toyota Genuine Motor Oil, idemitsu IFG 7 and 5 and Valvoline advanced. Sticking with IFG 5 for the next 4 oil changes
If you go aftermarket get WIX brand filters. I use their oil, air, and cabin filters. All of them are as good or better than OEM
$27 synthetic 0-16W. $7 Toyota filter.
So $34. I do it myself. I don’t trust Walmart.
$30 total.
$25 for 5qt oil, $4.5 for oem filter from Toyota dealership.
Agree about the WIX filter, has better end caps on the filter vs the oem filter that you just press the oil line tube ends into it, not a great design imo.
I change mine every 7-8k miles and use the best filter available. Just turned 336k miles on my 2001 Toyota
Penzoil Ultra Platinum w/ Wix filter
That OEM filter is probably made at the same factory as an off the shelf filter from pretty much any automotive parts store. Hell, I'm doing an oil change tomorrow and I'm going to get a Wix 57002 and some Pennzoil.
I think WIX changed their manufacturing process because the one I bought appears to be plastic tack'd to the main housing now, and the ring breaks off when taking the old filter off.
They didn't change out my oil filter. Since it was a cartidge I put a piece of tape over that it would separate if removed. It wasn't broken.
