• Q: How to replace the oil filter on 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser?

  A: A proper oil filter replacement requires complete drain of engine oil achieved by removing the oil filler cap followed by the 2 under cover bolts then the oil drain plug to collect the oil in a container. First remove the oil filter assembly through removal of service hole cover as well as 2 bolts before applying Special Service Tool 09228-07501 to remove the oil filter. The process of installing the new oil filter starts with cleaning the installation surface and then applying engine oil to the gasket before screwing it gently by hand until contact with the seat is made. Use Special Service Tool: 09228-07501 to tighten the oil filter while maintaining 17.2 Nm (178 kgf-cm, 13 ft. lbs.) torque if possible or secure it 3/4 turn when using a common wrench. The fixing process combines the drain plug with the new gasket then requires a torque of 39 Nm before oil addition to standard capacity levels followed by the oil filler cap installation. Conclude maintenance by sealing the No. 3 engine under cover to its 2 bolts before fastening the service hole cover with another set of 2 bolts.
