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
Try using an OEM Honda '03' oil filter (the filter code ends in 03). This should solve the noise it makes only when the engine is cold. This happens because other filters don't retain the oil properly, causing a slight delay of about a second when you start the car to lubricate the timing chain, resulting in the noise.
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
I had a similar thing happen on a 07 Honda Civic. Ended up being a bad oil filter ( split at a seam- deemed a manufacturer defect ).
$27 synthetic 0-16W. $7 Toyota filter.
So $34. I do it myself. I don’t trust Walmart.
So that DTC sets when there is an oil pressure issue originating from the oil filter up to the bank 2 VTC solenoid and actuator, using an aftermarket item could possibly lend to this issue
I ordered these 15400-RTA-003 oil filters on eBay for my FL5. The box and shrink wrap don't match the photos in any of the listings I've seen on and off eBay, except for this one place, which seems kind of suspicious.
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.
