How to replace the oil filter safely and effectively on Toyota Sienna?

Question

Accepted Answer

The first step of filter replacement requires caution against contact with engine oil because the substance affects skin health negatively. Use protective gloves and handwear during the process while cleaning your skin either with water-based soap or a water-free hand degreaser. Budgeted sites should be used for discarding used oil and oil filters. The oil filtering process starts with draining engine oil by removing the oil filler cap while taking out the oil drain plug to collect the oil in a suitable receptacle. Secure the oil drain plug after applying a fresh gasket then tighten it to 45 Nm (459 kgf-cm, 33 ft. lbs.). The cleanup requires removal of the oil filter sub-assembly by Special Service Tool: 09228-07501. Static installation requires users to first clean the oil filter seat before applying clean engine oil to a new filter gasket. This must be followed by gentle threading of the filter until it makes contact with the seat. After seating the filter using Special Service Tool: 09228-07501, proceed an additional 3/4 turn with the tool. Pour 4.7 liters (5.0 US quarts, 4.1 Imp. quarts) of fresh engine oil during drain and refill operations that involve changing the oil filter but use 4.5 liters (4.8 US quarts, 4.0 Imp. quarts) for drain and refill tasks without replacing the filter and maintain a 5.5 liters (5.8 US quarts, 4.8 Imp. quarts) capacity for dry fill procedures. Then proceed to install the oil filler cap. Inspect for potential engine oil leakages.
