Oil and Filter Change, easy peasy.
- Thread starter Teebo
- Start date
Maybe because I checked it on the driveway that have a bit of slope
But for me was a good extra 1/8-1/4.
No Idea how I gonna get that 0.9 right.
Probably just get a 5 qt and 3/4 in, start the car and guide by the dipstick
Thanks. That's the one I was looking at but wasn't sure
Thanks for the tip! Just made a grocery run and tried it when I got back. Finally was able to confirm my oil level is spot on.

Looks like you may not have the right filter? YZZD1 vs YZZN1. I hope it’s a bigger filter or I’m about to have the same problem.
Thanks for saving me more trouble
I’ll return te filter and hold on the wrench

Well crap. I gave bad advice.
I guess Toyota has changed the diameter of their filters.
Right Wrench, wrong Filter. I just changed mine and it fits like a glove!
(edit) FYI The kit with the Blue/clear funnel...... the funnel is tha Bomb!

Which kit, which funnel?
Right filter it works as expected
And the funnel:
Not the blue one, but is the same really
Bolts in the engine, not a single drop off.
Next time should be even easier:
I don't see the safety clip......... It's a very good idea to keep the safety clip installed (don't ask how I know this)
Hit a dirt bank and it partially opened (F250 no skid plates), we were stopping anyway, so a big mess but no damage.Yes, I installed it after I got the last few drops out.
it open on it's own ?
Yikes.
Even if I didn't have the skid plate, the way the valve is installed, would need to be in reverse to something maybe get hooked and pull it out.
On my Taco, I put about 10" of tubing on the valve and just leave it there. I put one of the vinyl caps on the end of the tube. Never had a issue with it.
Where did you get the funnel?
