Oil filter AMSOIL or OEM Toyota
$30 total.
$25 for 5qt oil, $4.5 for oem filter from Toyota dealership.
I change mine every 7-8k miles and use the best filter available. Just turned 336k miles on my 2001 Toyota
Oil changes full syn every 10k miles with OEM filters.
$48.11 is what I paid to buy the oil and filter at the dealership and do the labor myself. That's a genuine Toyota filter as well as a 6 quart case of Toyota 0W16.
With a good filter (Fram synthetic endurance, Purolator boss, Amsoil) and a modern high performance oil such as Amsoil signature and Pennzoil ultra platinum you are good for at least 17.5k with the Amsoil and 12.5k with the Pennzoil under 'severe' conditions.
I use Amsoil EA15K13-EA.
Every 4500-5000 miles with Amsoil Signature and Amsoil filter. Do it yourself, it\u2019s not hard and you can be assured no corners were cut. Don\u2019t go beyond 5000 miles. The 3.5L is really hard on oil. It\u2019s cheap insurance.
I only run Amsoil fluids and filters. Never had any issues and I track my 17' mostly. \n\nI dont use amsoil brake fluid though. Castrol SRF React is the best brake fluid for dry and wet boiling points. But its pricey
I\u2019ve been bringing these OEM Toyota filters to the shop for years now. And they\u2019re always the exact same ones, and moreover, they\u2019ve always put them on for me without a problem. Today, for some reason, they told me that it\u2019s not compatible with my car?
Did an oil change on my dad's Yaris last year on the 1NZ-FE motor. Everything went well until I got to the oil filter. My dumbass confused clockwise and counterclockwise. So instead of losing it I was basically over tightening it to the point it got stuck.
