Oil Filter

Engine oil replacement starts with filling the oil into a jar by removing the oil filler cap then the No. 2 engine under cover bolts and the oil pan drain plug with its gasket while draining oil before reinstalling the drain plug along with a new gasket that requires a 40 Nm (408 kgf-cm, 30 ft-lbf) torque. First disconnect both left and right front fender splash shields then proceed to remove the No. 1 engine under cover sub-assembly. The procedure to extract the oil filter element requires users to connect a pipe with 15 mm (0.591 in.) inner diameter to the drain plug before removing it and applying the pipe to the oil filter cap while collecting the draining oil into a container. Drain oil completion should be verified before disconnecting the pipe while also removing the O-ring. Special Service Tool: 09228-06501 allows users to detach the oil filter cap while keeping the oil filter bracket clip intact so they can remove the oil filter element as well as its O-ring while hand-removing the cap O-ring to avoid damage. The first step for installation requires a clean oil filter cap and a thin layer of engine oil on a new O-ring before setting the cap onto position followed by new oil filter element insertion. Clean the installation area of the engine and slather additional oil on the O-ring before fixing the oil filter cap in place while leaving the bracket clip undisturbed. Secure the filter using Special Service Tool: 09228-06501 until the torque reaches 25 Nm (255 kgf-cm, 18 ft-lbf) while ensuring both the filter stays tight and the O-ring remains undamaged. The maintenance procedure includes installing the new drain plug O-ring followed by oil filter drain plug tightening to 13 Nm (127 kgf-cm, 9 ft-lbf) while sealing the No. 2 engine under cover with its 2 bolts torqued to 10 Nm (102 kgf-cm, 7 ft-lbf). The maintenance ends by putting new oil into the tank before replacing the oil filler cap. Engine operation checks for leaks followed by monitoring engine oil levels before reinstalling both front fender splash shield sub-assemblies along with the No. 1 engine under cover sub-assembly.

The process for oil filter replacement in 2UZ-FE engines begins with disassembling the No. 1 engine under cover through three screws and five bolt removal. The under cover should then be detached from the vehicle body. Begin the oil filter change process by opening the oil filler cap and unscrewing both the oil drain plug and its gasket while collecting drained oil in a receiver. Drive out the engine oil from the pan by replacing both the gasket and drain plug then torque the components to 40 Nm (408 kgf-cm, 30 ft-lbf). Uninstall the oil filter assembly with Special Service Tool: 09228-07501. Before installing a new oil filter apply clean engine oil to its gasket and gently screw it onto its seat by hand until the gasket makes contact. Tighten the oil filter using Special Service Tool: 09228-07501 or manually torque it to 17 Nm (173 kgf-cm, 13 ft-lbf) when enough space allows. The drainage procedure ends with torquing the drain plug to 39 Nm (398 kgf-cm, 29 ft-lbf). Next, add new oil to the standard capacity before installing the oil filler cap. After starting the engine you should check for oil leaks within the work area. Secure the No. 1 engine under cover by hooking it to the vehicle body and fasten it with 3 screws and 5 bolts which must be torqued to 29 Nm (296 kgf-cm, 21 ft-lbf) for bolts and 3.0 Nm (31 kgf-cm, 27 in-lbf) for screws.

You must start the 1GR-FE oil filter replacement by removing the No. 1 engine under cover. Use a disposal container underneath the drain plug while removing both the oil filler cap and drain plug to empty engine oil. Screw down the drain plug after applying a new gasket and tightening it to 40 Nm (408 kgf-cm, 30 ft-lbf). You should start by removing the oil filter sub-assembly through drain pipe cap removal followed by the use of Special Service Tool: 09228-07501 which enables you to detach the oil filter while placing a disposal container beneath the drain hose. Install a new oil filter by first applying clean engine oil to its gasket then slowly screw it onto the installation surface until the gasket touches the seat. You can apply Special Service Tool: 09228-07501 to tighten the oil filter and use space-permitting torque wrenches set to 18 Nm (184 kgf-cm, 13 ft-lbf) or hand-tighten it with a common wrench for 3/4 turns when space is restricted. For new oil filling choose SAE 5W-30 or SAE 10W-30 along with the oil filler cap reinstallation. Verify the engine operation while inspecting the serviced region for any leaking oil. The technician should check the engine oil level with the dipstick after the motor has reached an 80 degrees Celsius (176 degrees Fahrenheit) temperature. Necessary oil additions should bring the level to the maximum point. The procedure ends with reinstallation of the No. 1 engine under cover.

Add fresh oil, install the oil filler cap, start the engine to check for leaks, inspect the engine oil level, and reinstall the No. 1 engine under cover sub-assembly and both front fender splash shield sub-assemblies LH and RH.

Add fresh oil, reinstall the oil filler cap, start the engine to check for leaks, and inspect the engine oil level.

Remove the No. 1 engine under cover.

Clean the oil pan and drain plug, then install a new gasket and the drain plug, torquing it to 40 Nm (408 kgf-cm, 30 ft-lbf).

Install a new gasket and the drain plug, torquing it to 39 Nm (398 kgf-cm, 29 ft-lbf), then add new oil according to the standard engine oil capacity and install the oil filler cap.
