I’d recommend using motorcraft FL820S filters only. They have better anti drainback valves than the Fram filters and will help retain oil in your top end.
I use Motocraft oil filter also available there.
10,000 mile oil changes till it hits 200k miles, then 7,500 intervals. Always using
Royal Purple and Toyota filters. Zero oil consumption between changes
Been using 0W20 on my 2010 Corolla for 100,000km now with no issues. As others said, use a quality filter. I use the genuine filter from Toyota for around $12.
The oil is 0W-16, any major brand will do, and the OEM filter is 90915-YZZN1 which you can find both online. There's an aluminum gasket for the drain plug that you should be changing each time too.
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
My opinion… 5W-30. I drive mine year round in a cold northern state. I was always told that if you’re hard on it at all and run it into higher rpm’s sometimes the coyote likes the heavier weight.
$27 synthetic 0-16W. $7 Toyota filter.
So $34. I do it myself. I don’t trust Walmart.
Motorcraft until they tripled the price. Got a bunch of Purolator Boss’s before their price went up
I'm not sure if the 2008 v6s still had plastic tensioners, but I know my 2004 4.0 did. I had to have it replaced at one point. Unfortunately with the 4.0 engine, removing timing covers with the engine still in the truck is kind of difficult and a shop might want to pull it to do this kind of work. I believe that's what they did on mine. Using motorcraft oil filters could help, but it didn't make mine go away, so I eventually had it replaced.
