The 5th gen 4Runner air filter replacement is a fairly easy job, but it's always nice to see it done before tackling it yourself. The fifth generation 4Runner SUV goes from model years 2009 to 2024, with a facelift in 2015. Most of them have this V6 engine, so this will be a nearly identical task on a 2010 or a 2020. Here are a bunch of air filter options I've found:
49350 - WIX: amzn.to/3ojtAFx *
Made in China, good quality, used in video.
‎A36122 - Purolator engine air filter: amzn.to/3mzS7pz *
Made in Mexico, USA brand, good quality.
17801-38051 - Toyota (rebranded Denso) filter: amzn.to/3GQkrus *
Made in Japan, original quality.
CA10835 - FRAM Extra Guard: amzn.to/41xmiwe *
Made in USA, low quality (it does not include the pre-filter mesh).
143-3025 - Denso First Time Fit: amzn.to/3oa3DYT *
Made in China, same brand as Toyota filters, but different country of origin! Also, the site says this doesn't fit, but reviews say it does.
33-2438 - K&N: amzn.to/40kNUDI *
Made in USA, reusable, but if you're going with K&N, you'll have more fun with their full intake kit.
XA6122 - ECOGARD: amzn.to/3mEG1LB *
Made in China, okay quality. Make sure the better options aren't cheaper than this one (they often are).
28-20438 - AEM: amzn.to/41yE6a9 *
Made in USA, reusable. I have no experience with this brand, but have heard good things. Very tempted to try them out, but if I do, I may just get the full kit.
The example vehicle in this video is a 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off Road.
