Did you even lift your car ??

Some filter cartridges come with the small plastic screw-in insert that goes into the filter casing and drains the oil before you take the filter housing off. Mine did not have one. My big problem, which I did not solve, was getting the filter housing off. It was so tight I actually rounded out the hole in the bottom of the filter wrench tool. So this time it is an oil change but not filter change. I'll talk to the Toyota garage and see if they have any tips on getting it off. I used a cheater bar, thus the rounding out of the aluminum wrench tool.. I will say it's sure easier to change oil on my wife's' A4 Audi. The oil filter is on the top of the engine upside down. When you drain the oil, you drain the oil filter. Of course, it took me about an hour to find the filter the first time I changed it. It was black colored, the engine cover was black and I just could not see it.

Are you using the special tool design for Toyota?

My tips follow... Stuck Oil Filter Everyone who has this system should be prepared for a worse case scenario. Make sure you have the following... 1. The proper Motivx* oil filter cap wrench. Item #MX2320 is for all Toyota/Lexus/Scion engines 2.0 liters and larger using a cartridge style oil filter. Item #MX2321 for all engines smaller than 2.0 liters using a cartridge style filter. 2. A 27 mm ½ inch drive socket 3. A ½ drive breaker bar (18 inches or longer in length & if needed an extension for same.) If an oil filter cap seems difficult to remove, only the above items should be used (or equivalent tools). Do not simply use a ⅜ inch drive ratchet or ratchet with extension as these will sometimes result in breakage of the oil filter cap wrench or the oil filter cap. Always make sure the teeth on the wrench are properly engaged with the tabs on the oil filter cap. To prevent reoccurrence of the problem •Make sure new o-rings are properly lubricated before installing. •Use a torque wrench to install the oil filter cap to no more than 18 ft.lbs (25 N•m). Oil filter drainplug = 10 ft.lbs. (13 N•m) * If you think the Motivx tools are too expensive at least consider the following... Do not buy an oil filter cap wrench that is made from cast aluminum. Only buy one that is forged. Do not buy one that is strictly a cap wrench that does not have teeth. Do not buy one that claims to fit all models or even all four cylinders. The 2.0 and 2.5 liter four cylinder engines use the same oil filter cap wrenches as the six and eight cylinder engines use. Only the 1.8 and 1.3 liter engines use a different size oil filter cap and oil filter cap wrench. If the oil filter for your four cylinder vehicle comes with one o-ring instead of two then your vehicle takes the same wrench as a Prius or Corolla. If your oil filter comes with two o-rings & a drain tool then your oil filter cap takes the same wrench as the six and eight cylinder engines. Some companies claim their wrench works for all four cylinders but on the 2.5 liter engines that smaller wrench does not engage the teeth on the wrench to the tabs on the oil filter cap. It may work if your oil filter cap is not stuck but it is a poor choice. They are mislead.

Yes, it's a cartridge tool just like you have, but it's on so tight my 3/8 inch socket just turned in the cartridge cap tool.

It sounds like it's not unlocking that special tool is supposed to unlock a tab that's on the filter cap

Should I change the black plastic housing to a metal one ?
@DavidTheMechanic3 жыл бұрын
I don't think that that would be necessary unless the plastic One cracked

Okay somebody ask me a question about draining the oil from the oil filter with another special tool for some reason I can't message you directly but the answer is there is a special tool that comes with the oil filter and yes you're supposed to use that

How do you reset the maintenance soon signal on the dash?

I have some videos on that if you want to just go through my playlist I'm not at my computer so I can't send you a link right now but it's really simple you just hold down the odometer button and it has to be on the odometer I can't be on the trip. Then you turn your key to the Run position and you will see the odometer will flash 5 dashes and they will go away one by one and when they are all gone you can release the button turn the ignition back off and then start the engine and the lights should be off

I would not let this guy change my oil. Sorry. Why take the drain plug off the oil filter cap if you had no intention of draing the filter? Duh.
@DavidTheMechanic4 жыл бұрын
I didn't know it came with the little tool inside the oil filter box I had assumed that if you take that drain plug off that the oil would drain out. Sorry

The next time I do an oil change on a late model Camry I'll be sure to use the little plastic tool that comes in the oil filter box and update this video for you hope that helps

I found out the oil filter wrench has changed between the 2011 and 2017 Toyota Camry. I had to buy a new one for about $14 from Advance Auto. It has a bigger diameter.
