Oil filter K&N 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.
That won’t happen if you were using a K&N oil filter. All these cheap brand filters are not sturdy and will collapse when you’re trying to take them off when stuck… either The Black K&N select filter or the white Premium filter will avoid this problem from happening…
Also the K&N oil filter is superior to HD’s despite the recent upgrade. The K&N has a better flow.
I'd do oil change as close to leaving as possible with full synthetic oil. Look into oil filter status after that long.
they're not the best, but they are built exactly to Toyota's specifications. So, while it's possible to have an aftermarket filter not built to Toyota's specifications, an OEM filter is more-or-less guaranteed to operate as intended for your specific car.
K&N filters are some of the worst quality filters on the market.
KN filters are gay, watch freedom worx YouTube video about Oem vs KN filters. You'll wanna swap right back!
