Another great video... Oil Filter Housing = 18ftlbs Housing Drain = 10ftlbs Oil Drain Plug = 30ftlbs Lug Nuts = 83ftlbs (page 637 of owner's manual)

So much respect for someone that does his/her own vehicle maintenance.

Excellent job Chloe . I love seeing women work on their own cars.

Thanks for documenting your work, the camera and lights adds time to the job not to mention the editing and the planning it takes to tell a story. Just wanted to throw my thanks out there - I watch yours and a couple of other videos and installed my SPC UCAs and an OME 2 in heavy kit this past weekend. Thanks for taking the time. Edit: I know this is a general service video. It just popped up in my feed and I wanted to thank you for your vids in general.

Chloe, rear to front rotation is correct. But fronts need to be criss-crossed when moved to the rear of any RWD/4WD/AWD vehicle. That way over time, each tire will get used at all four corners.

Awesome job Chloe. Just a friendly tip, not sure if you done it already, make sure you lube the O ring (just soak motor oil or wd40 it) Also, for the air filter recharge, i would clean and re-oil and let it dry for a bit before installing. I usually just throw in the stock paper filter and let the newly reoiled filter dry overnight. Reason being, rechargeable filters tend to gum up throttle body and or MAF sensor.

Chloe, once again your detailed demos are the best. Your oil change segment was very helpful, the Toyota oil filter is unlike the traditional oil filters we have used for years with American vehicles. Hats off to you for doing the work yourself.

Hey Chloe. I just changed my oil. 1000 miles. It looked dirty. 2022 Tacoma SR5 then I installed a 2 inch lift kit. 2 inch lift in the front and 2 inch lift in the rear. It looks great. And I just got my new Tonneau Cover. Super White. Solid fiberglass. I'm going to install it today. When I wake up. Love you Chloe. You Rock

Watching this makes me wish sometimes I wasn’t a mechanic lol. Maintenance for enthusiasts is something fun you do sometimes. I do it every day to semi trucks and it becomes tedious looking at my own vehicle. Sometimes all I do is drop the oil change the filter add oil and go on with my day haha

I’m proud of you Chloe for doing oil change on your truck on your own. I always have been doing that for a long time because I wanted to be a mechanic and I love cars a lot.

I love that you do your own work on your truck. I work on my own truck too. Its difficult to get people to do their own work as it is a little intimidating at first, but if they see that you can do it as a petite girl, that others hopefully will give it a try. And I love the K02's. I use them on my vehicle and love how they run on and off road. I have not gotten stuck with them yet. Close a couple times, but not stuck. Keep up the good work.

Love your videos! I have a 2018 Tacoma here in Colorado and I’m loving it. Thank you for always making your videos by doing a step to step process on everything you work on. It helps out me and many others out there!

you can use a plastic soda bottle to push the oil filter housing drain into place. The soda bottle will catch the oil in the housing, rather than have it run down your arm.

You can use the end of the calipers you used to measure the brake pads to measure the depth of the tread .. it’s the little end that protrudes as you open the calipers

I was so excited to see you put up this oil change/safety video. So much more than expected, no one does it like you do.

I don't think I ever knew a gal who owned a torque wrech and a breaker bar. Come to think of it most guys I know today don't have them either. You're awsome Chloe, like an added bonus to the Tacoma I just purchased 💯!

Wow. I've changed my own oil all my life. Just traded in my 22 year old 256K mile Tundra for a new 2022 Tacoma. Love the truck but changing oil looks like a pain. Changing oil has gotten very complicated. I have to say my Subaru is much easier. 😓 At least watching this video has prepared me that I need to get the right paraphernalia. Thanks 😊

Very good video on maintaining your truck. Just to let u know u dont need to torque down your oil drain plug. But thats up to u. I bought a K &N cabin air filter so i dont have to always buy one every 15000miles. Just have to wash it out. When it comes to the drive shaft to be lubricated. I do it all together with the front n rear differential, transfer case n transmission fluid change at 30000miles. Everything is all drain n pour for my Tacoma even my manual transmission.

I still don’t know how to change my oil, but I appreciate people like her and others that make these videos.

Good job! Just to pass along some info, my dealership and two other Toyota technicians told me that Toyota recommends either Mobile One full synthetic or genuine Toyota full synthetic 0-20W oil for my 2021 TRD Tacoma. Recently however I learned that using other full synthetic brands that meet their requirements will not void your warranty. You can also purchase a Toyota carbon cabin air filter instead of the regular one like you used. It’s more expensive of course but does a much better job. Thank you for another great video. You are definitely a DIY owner that I can appreciate.

10k Oil Change Interval is condition based. Basically, highway milers fit the criteria for 10k interval. Sticking to 5k OCI will pay dividends in years to come.

I don’t have a Toyota but I love your videos. I’m 30 and have just decided it’s important for me to learn how to do these things for myself. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I don’t even know how to change a flat tire.

If you shake the jack handle gently from side to side while slowly twisting it lowers the pressure much easier. The gear on the handle that meets the jack needs a little bump to get started, or it's almost "locked" into place with all the pressure on it.

You are one tough girl , my daughter about your age could not do the same maintenance you did and I have hard time doing tire rotation on my TRD OD, good for you doing your own stuff and taking time to learn how to do it!

DID ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THE GHOST MOVE THE OIL FILTER AT 1:42 AND OIL FILTER WRENCH AT 1:56 IN THE VIDEO ???

Thanks again!! My warranty is almost done.

Great video. One thought on the tire tread depth. You don't need any more tools. You could use your the calipers that you used to measure the brake pads. There is a depth gauge built in to the calipers. When you open the calipers, take the pin/bar that comes out at the end and stick it into the tread. Then close the calipers until the end of the calipers touches the top of the tread. The measurement will be the tread depth.

As a lube tech at Toyota. You did a pretty solid job! I torque down the wheels at 85

You packed in a ton of data points and tips on the ToyotaCare DIY topic. I like it.

unless the tires are directional, you should rotate tires differently than you did. Take "drive" axle tires and move them to other axle on same side of vehicle, than take the non drive axle tires and put them on opposite side of drive axle. So in your case, rear tires to front on same side, and than take the front tires you removed and put them on the rear axle of other side. I like your jack, it;s a mini power house jack that looks like it in itself could tackle the trails if it had a engine. Unless your impact gun does not have enough power to remove the tightened lug nuts, there is really no reason to loosen the lugs before lifting the truck. Let the impact gun do the work. If it is possible, (i'm not sure about your type of filter) you should fill up filter with at least 1/2 of filter capacity with some clean oil before installing it back on. This will allow oil to start flowing thru the engine faster than starting engine with a dry filter allows. I love how you even wear a Toyota shirt for your Toyota Maintenance. Great job Chloe. Also, never a bad idea to do a battery load test on your battery. You can get a device that looks like a toaster with jumper leads on it to test battery strength at home.

Helpful tip using a torque wrench. Get into position so you're continuously applying a constant pressure to torque wrench until it releases. Once you've torqued a bunch of things, you get the hang of it and it will help eliminate blowing by the torque wrench release point.

Great job a little tip when putting in the plastic oil filter plug to drain the oil from the filter I use a needle nose pliers it makes it easier to put in and you don’t have oil running down your arm and it’s easy to pull out.

one disadvantage of going to an 'oil change place' a lot is.. They sometimes ruin the oil pan by putting the bolt in too tight, eventually they strip it.

Chloe at it again. Making that yotie a tip top jewel!! Your a solid professional! I think Toyota owes you a Tacoma commercial;)

im so amazed how goo you explain everything I need to know since I'm a new tacoma owner. thanks for doing all this videos.

When it comes to maintenance of my vehicles I prefer to do it myself, too many 'service' places are more concerned about getting you in and getting you out quickly than they are about doing the job right. (Very shady) But as it is, I've got to the point physically that it is very difficult for me to do so. (getting old is a bitch!) But I would trust YOU to work on my Taco any day!!!

Supercharger is a must!!! My Magnuson has been flawless!!

a little tip for tight oil filters... let your engine get to operating temps. Slightly loosen the filter housing and plug FIRST. While it is hot. No breaker bar needed. drain oil, then go back to the oil filter housing and replace. Easy peezy

I use Castrol GTX Magnatec and Wix oil filters.

Nice vid! Still haven’t done a full service on my 2018 yet as I got the extended service plan. I am looking for another stock wheel to replace the spare steelie so I can get the spare into the rotation as a five tire rotation too. One tip for those using the dealer, if you get your service internal book out the dealer will date stamp each service, kinda nice to have for documentation. All oil companies need to move to the box packing IMO! Keep ‘em coming!!

That's a lot of work you just did. What about the Techron fuel additive? I add a bottle at each oil change. Awesome video Chloe 😀. ♥️🌮🐶🐕

Always makes my day to see another video from you (: am close to getting a 2019 myself so fingers crossed!

I like your videos when you are ready for a lot better oil try amsoil signature series with their filters . I have used it for years with no problems or complaints 😎

thanks, will be using havoline oil from now is cheaper than mobile 1 which i always used

Wheel lug torque is 113 N•m or 83 ft.lbs.

I’m paying off my 2016 this Christmas!! So excited! I use Amsoil on my truck.

A win/win! Saving money and also knowing that the job was done right!

Just the help I am looking for my Toyota

Good job, after 200 miles double check the maf sensor and clean it with the new oil on the air filter sometimes the extra can stick on it.

Great work!...Torque on the wheel lugs is 83 foot pounds.

You are so awesome! Wish I had your initiative!

hey chloe just wanna say i love ur vids. i leased a 2020 tacoma base SR and ended up just kinda being forced to buy it due to the market right now. you've made me enjoy the purchase more than i thought i would

Awesome babe, you should go to the Longbeach Toyota festival, I did with my Tacoma!

Interesting .. new gen changed to element/cartridge filter style instead of steel canister .... and access is under the truck not above. The more you know ... :) Also, another great vid Chloe!

Awesome! Thanks for the tips. Great how to video. Now that I will start servicing my own truck, I will definitely use your video as a guide. Where did you get the Toyota inspection sheet? I’d love to get one so I can also use it to fill out

Chole, u can use the other side of the digital caliper to check tire depth. No need to buy another tool. Keep up the great content ♥

I have a baseball cap for crawling around under my truck but my garage isn’t as clean. Also, I don’t even OPEN my engine air filter but every 30k. There is a school of thought that keeping it sealed is 1/2 the battle. Also, I have a Land Cruiser and the oiled air filters are kinda spurned. Mostly because the Land Cruiser air filters are fantastic but also because your Mass Airflow Sensor sits right behind the air filter. Keep an eye on the MAF; they’re easy to clean.

I still need to get a jack like yours and im 3.5’ lifted 😂 Great video as always!

Some calipers have a gauge at the opposite end. You use that to measure your tire treads.

Chloe your the greatest. You remembered about the request for the maintenance video. I was wondering did you remove the fill cap on the top when you was draining the oil. Also you really impressed me when you was doing the tire rotation, you're very strong. I'm looking forward to your next video and once again thank you for the maintenance video.

Not sure how stumble here but you provide great info. Don’t own a Toyota. But do own an at4

GREAT VIDEO I just picked up a 2018 sr5 v6 and I’m loving it so much already…

Another job/s well done! I might add that the new O-rings should be lubed with oil to prevent them from being damaged when the filter housing and filter housing drain disc are being installed.

Just did an oil change for my RX 350 yesterday so I enjoyed your video. Project Farm tested a bunch of air filters and I was surprised at how many fine particles passed through the K&N. It is great at airflow but not great at filtering the fine particles. You might want to switch to a more effective filter that balances air flow and filtration.

Great video Chloe your truck looks amazing Toyota Tacoma is my favorite truck🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💯 the passion you have for trucks 🛻 is amazing keep up the awesome work

Always fantastic when you don't have to pay for labor. Keep up the good work 💪

great video :-) Regarding the car lifter..I think it works smoother when the handle is in fully down/max. horizontal position. This works with forklifters as well ! Regards from Switzerland !!!

Great video. I think those calipers you used to measure the pad thickness also have a depth gage on the opposite side. You can probably use it to measure tread depth.

Awesome, I have been debating starting to do my own fluid changes. I’m going to go for it and invest in some equipment to take that on.

You can use your calipers that you used for your brake measurement to measure tire depth.

That’s nice…I have to take off the skid plate on my 4Runner to change the oil and filter

Super dope video! I do all my maintenance myself, but I definitely think I need to lube up my propeller shaft cause sometimes I hear a squeal in the engine compartment. -28,000 miles

Great job on the Jack!

shocking...very professional done.

I've had great luck pushing the nipple onto the bottom of the oil filter housing with an empty 750 ML wine bottle. You can grip it and give it the shove you need to get the drain in place and all of the oil dumps right into the bottle without any mess. Also, I don't know from experience with my '19 Tacoma but with my 2008 Tundra, I bought the metal filter housing for a Venza and swapped it out with the Tundra, you can get a much better grip with an oil filter wrench and it won't strip out. You do have to swap the metal cylinder from the truck filter with the smaller venza piece. Hope this helps.

Baxter oil filter adapter. Spin on the oil filter. Pricey yes, but hassle-free.

Luv the vid as always. My daughter really needs to watch ur channel. Keep it up. Where is the vid on ur rims and tires install.

This video also made me want to clean my garage.

I will say it again, 2nd gen oil change is perfection. Why did Toyota do this to the 3rd gen?!? I’m sure they could have designed it better even with the engine change.

I enjoy watching your videos and I drive a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.

You can add a piece of tubing on the filter drain plastic part. It keeps everything nice and clean.

This is a great video with lots of information. A huge thank you to you .👍

Since you take your truck off-road, you might want to clean the Mass Air-Flow Sensor. I use CRC's Lectra-Motive Electric Parts Cleaner which will clean the thermistor/s but won't leave any residue. A dirty MAF will cause poor fuel economy because the ECU won't be getting an accurate reading from the MAF to determine how much fuel the engine requires Vs. air flow.

Great video, one thing I noticed is that you didn’t do anything regarding the relearning of TPMS position of the tires, if anyone knows how to do that please let me know.

Nicely done. Really cool to do your own maintenance. Keep it up.

Great video! Will you be filming other fluid drain and fill videos like automatic transmission fluid, front and rear differential, and transfer case? I think that would be a great series on the 3rd gen taco.

Excellent video! You should flush your power steering fluid. It’s a fun job! Great work.

Thank you so for this. You did a great job.

Great video. My Ridgeline takes 6 quarts too. Good to know that 6 quart boxes are available. When I torque my wheels, I generally leave the truck jacked up enough to prevent the wheels from turning. Then after let down the truck. Just something I was taught. Btw, I road tripped the Ridgeline to NY last week. On I-81, I averaged 29.3 mpg using your mpg advice.

Such an amazing video very thorough. Love your content

Use a soda bottle Or something similar for the plastic oil drain makes it much easier and a lot less messy

She's adorable 😍 What about the differentials?

Another AWESOME video! 😎🛻

that's cool you do that but I don't have the patience I just go to the dealer!

Great video! I’m planning to go my maintenance on my Tacoma and I was wondering where you got the Toyota maintenance sheet?

Awesome as always. I miss Cody Chloe.

Another great video! Thank you, Chloe!!!

Love the maintenance videos along with all of them!

Love that Toyota t shirt. Where can I buy one. Great Video and thanks for that

Have you ever experienced small leaks from the oil filter canister after an oil change? All list items were checked off, proper torque on cannisters and bottom plug... Getting a tiny drop or two after driving!
