@@shikat2371 Agreed but the cartridge filter made sense without the extra metal. There is a lot of metal if we add up all the cars in the world x 2 oil changes a year for the rest of the 20 years.

The old filter with metal casing will not have this issue.
Peter, Please don't take this the wrong way but the last shop did such a good job with the previous oil change that I feel a little sorry for them losing the client to you ;-)
Love the great simplistic design of all access for oil change. Hope the spin on oil filter is planned for all future Toyota's. I have a 2016 Tacoma with V6 auto and love my Truck. Great Videos keep them coming Brother.
2007 Hyundai Sonata 2.4 liter has the same type spin off oil filter but it’s placed vertical so I can fill the oil filter with oil prior to installation! So nice to know there is oil right away after start up and no need to wait for the oil pump to fill the filter and then get the oil flowing in the motor!!
The ATF change is another story. It's more hands-on now than in the older Corollas. There is no transmission dipstick on the newer Corollas and to add new ATF, the front tire on the driver side has to be removed to unscrew the bolt. Then use a long funnel to pour ATF through that opening.
FYI, I just acquired a 2020 Rav4. Will pick it up Friday. Watching your videos for a while. First Toyota for me, I will focus on increasing the reliability and frugality in fuel consumption. Lighter wheels, lighter pulleys, better oils, etc. All my mods are/will be documented on the dyno, track and MPG test. Thank you for posting all your videos, its always helpful. Cheers!

@@gvi341984 got a box of 12 Mahle filters, they are very small indeed, but like better the metal filters vs the cartridges. Way cheaper in cost and for me, better to contain contaminants.
I went to change my oil in my '16 corolla in Feb this year and was pleasantly surprised at the ease of access for filter and plug. Seems they haven't changed anything since '16 to '18 which is nice.
I wish Toyota had the spin on filter on my 2010 Toyota Camry 2.5L. But I use the Toyota OEM oil filter on my 2013 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport 4.0L V6 and my 2010 Toyota Camry 2.5L with the 6 Speed Manual Transmission.
I can't believe it! After more than 10 years Toyota listened to the drivers and mechanics and got rid of its stupid canister filter design. I just broke the plastic filter canister on my new-to-me Sienna (somebody overtightened it). I had to wait for several days with the car in the air until the aluminum replacement canister arrived.
The plastic oil filter cap would likely last just fine if the lube techs and mechanics were true professionals and would follow the torque specs. Ask them how tight they screw on the oil filter cap. It should only be 25 N•m which is 18 ft.lbs. (about half as tight as the drainplug on the oil pan. The torque spec is printed right on the oil filter cap.
I just did my niece's 2019 highlander, and it still has the dreaded canister......the toyota dealer couldnt even do a proper oil change, before i did anything i noticed seepage around drain plug so i touched it and was loose, just by touching it, she was lucky.
You can convert your Corolla to the spin on type oil filter if you have the cartridge type now. Super easy to do. www.ptetra.com/blogs/blog/project-lexus-ct200h-spin-on-oil-filter-conversion
You should recommend jack stands to your viewers, which most likely if they buy this type of car are brand people, and not car people who regularly get their hands dirty or understand this type of thing. DIY maintenance cars coming off the normal jack is a big problem for injuries. I prefer a vehicle that you can access the drain plugs while the wheels are on the ground for this reason. Also a real frame for jack points and axles are nice as well, if you need to work on brakes for example. Toyota sells these types of vehicles.

Hi, what do you think of the oil filter with synthetic filter matter inside, like the FRAM ULTRA SYNTHETIC® OIL FILTER, they claim : 2-ply synthetic, metal-screen-reinforced media provides 99%+ filtration efficiency.* Traps and holds more than double the dirt of typical retail brand oil filters. ** Rigid metal-screen support offers outstanding pressure resistance and flow spacing. ******* Bosch making those kind of filters too but i never heard about someone using them.

Ive tried maf, o2, throttle body clean , new plugs , timing, cam s, crank s, coils. It ran perfect before timing belt was replaced and all timing marks line up perfectly. Any idea lol??
The oil filter should be removed first, because it takes much less time to drain all of the oil out of the filter housing, then it does to drain all of the oil out from the oil pan! I always allow at least one to two hours to drain the oil from the drain plug! This way I get much more of the old oil out then I could, if I only let it drain for say, fifteen minutes!
Hey i have a 2014 corolla 2zre engine, when i check the oil, one side of the dipstick shows full, but when i look at the other side of the dipstick it shows overfilled ? why is that ? why aren't both sides showing the same level ?
Yes, I have the same problem on 2019., 1.8 hybrid, I can't check the oil beceuse dipstick is twisted through the tube and gets all smeared with oil when pulling out. It is common problem in Toyotas. Please, is there a secret how to check the oil on Toyotas. Why they don't change that bad design?

Every 5,000 miles using the recommended synthetic oil. If you take a trip you can extend it depending how far you trip is. Highway miles cause the least amount of wear and shirt trips around town cause the most.
As per the manual, it is normally at intervals of 10,000 km. However, if you do lots of driver in town and in traffic, with much idling, it is then recommended to change each 5,000 km.
Just curious why you use microguard, possibly the cheapest quality consumer grade filter, you are so picky about good maintenance but put junk on your customers cars
So do were dare hope that Toyota has finally learned its lesson and gone back to normal spin-on oil filters instead of idiotic paper element filters that are a total pain and make a mess?
Probably, (unless they can come up with a far better cartridge system than what they had). I doubt they would have switched back if they didn't plan on leaving things alone.
I have been changing my own fluids on all cars I have owned since 1976. In the Toyota brand, I had a 1990 Corolla, 2001 Solara Convertible and then bought a new 2010 Corolla in 2010. Upon starting my own oil change, as usual, I discovered that crappy canister design. I went back to the dealership and almost strangled the guy who sold me that car. I have had Toyota employees admit to me later that this was done solely to increase service revenue and discourage DIY's from changing their own fluids. Found the correct oil filter wrench (correct diameter and number of flutes) at NAPA soon after for $7. Toyota wanted $120 for their oil wrench AND said it was not available to customers. Ready to strangle the parts guy and then went to NAPA. At least the 2010 model has a transmission fluid dipstick! Should NEVER have altered the spin-off design. Damn fools! Does the 2018 model have a transmission dipstick?
Sorry but I like the cartridge oil filter system better than the spin-on canisters. Less boring and I feel like I really accomplished something when I'm done. 😉😊 Actually, I'm retired and it keeps me busy for an extra five minutes when I change my oil. I use a $25 oil filter cap wrench. The Motivx MX2320 (although your Corolla would use the Motivx MX2321 for the 1.8 engine). I'm prepared for a worse case scenario with a 27 mm socket and ½ inch breaker bar just in case I should ever need it but I feel that if torque specs are followed there should never be a problem getting it off. And I don't believe what you were told as to why Toyota and other manufacturers went to cartridge filters... See Why Cartridge Filters ua-cam.com/video/qH79uDR2YFM/v-deo.html And no, the 2018 model does not have a dip-stick for the ATF.
Not sure about 2018 but I doubt it. My 2017 doesn't and it's the same body/engine as the 2018. It has one of those "sealed for life" CVTs with the claim that the fluid lasts "for the life" of car. That can mean anything. I'm trying to figure out how to service the CVT transmission fluid on my own (see recent comment I posted). The dealer tells me there's no need but they'd happily do it for about $500. That seems nuts for what amounts to a fluid change (the proper fluid is a bit pricey, however, but not that pricey).
@@stuartsiegel2327 As far as I'm concerned the dealers AND the manufacturers are acting in an illegal manner and not according to what they agreed to... Consider this... "The right to repair concept has generally come from the United States. Within the automotive industry, Massachusetts passed the United States' first Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act in 2012, which required automobile manufacturers to provide the necessary documents and information to allow anyone to repair their vehicles. While not passed at the federal level, the major automobile trade organizations signed a memorandum to agree to abide by Massachusetts' law in all fifty states starting in the 2018 automotive year." So does this only apply to 2018 models and newer... I doubt they are honoring this for any year and model.

Less boring and I feel like I really accomplished something when I'm done. 😉😊 Actually, I'm retired and it keeps me busy for an extra five minutes when I change my oil.] My response: Everyone is entitled to their opinion and that’s great you enjoy extra time spent on the cartridge type. I’ve changed that canister approximately 23 times now on my 2010 Corolla. If I were able to use a genuine Toyota spin-on, I’d rather spend the difference in time savings (multiplied by 23 in my case) to work on other parts of the car if needed. (brake shoes and pads, coolant change, transmission change, exhaust, timing chain replacement) or anything else not related to the vehicle that I’d feel more productive doing. I’ve used both types of filters successfully. Your statement: [I use a $25 oil filter cap wrench. The Motivx MX2320 (although your Corolla would use the Motivx MX2321 for the 1.8 engine).

Your statement: [And I don't believe what you were told as to why Toyota and other manufacturers went to cartridge filters...] My response: I can’t know what high level Toyota executives are strategizing in their board rooms as to why they moved to the cartridge style (and why they are now moving back to the spin-ons for that matter). Also, I did not say that this is why other manufacturers changed technologies. I focused on Toyota alone. Hmmm. I was at the parts counter at two different dealerships over the last several years and I asked the parts counter employees why they went to cartridge filters. At one dealership, I was the only customer there with a lone parts counter employee. At the other dealership, there were two parts counter employees present and no other customers around. Both times, their responses were sheepish and relayed in a hushed voice. I didn’t see you standing beside me at either location verifying their responses. Again, I don’t know what the grand objective is for the change in oil filter style but I do know what the parts counter employees believed when discussing the change with me. You are entitled to believe what you want. Service revenue profit margin on existing cars is always higher than the equivalent margin on a brand new car at a Toyota dealership. Your statement: [See Why Cartridge Filters ua-cam.com/video/qH79uDR2YFM/v-deo.html] My response: Eco filters that are easier to recycle? Cartridge type: Crush the oil out of the filter and incinerate the paper element including the plastic components? Spin-on type: Crush the oil out of the filter and recycle the steel allowing that process to filter out impurities and no plastic involved Sorry, putting aside recycling, number of pleats and the general nature of the quality of different brands and styles of filters that we can relegate for dozens of UA-cam videos to explore ad nauseam, it is just plain simpler and faster to replace a genuine Toyota spin-on oil filter vs a genuine Toyota cartridge filter. No O-ring needed either. If the cartridge filter is more eco-friendly, why is Toyota moving back to the spin-ons? Are they publicly advocating a movement to less eco-friendly parts on their vehicles? Your statement: [And no, the 2018 model does not have a dip-stick for the ATF.] My response: Thanks, I’m honest enough to admit I was just too lazy to look it up. Maybe saving some time with the spin-on filter (multiplied by 23) would have encouraged me to actually look it up. (but likely not). Cheers!
@@michaelt1349 What do you think? I think regardless of why they went from spin on filters to cartridge filters they are switching back because of complaints from both customers/owners and from mechanics who refuse to follow the torque specs that can be found both in the printed instructions and on the oil filter cap assembly itself. It's been costing some owners extra expense paying the dealer for replacement oil filter caps etc. So that extra revenue evidently isn't as important to Toyota as making the customer happy is. The whole cartridge system has proven to be mostly just a huge blunder on Toyotas part. I really don't care whether it's a spin-on filter or not, I was trying to make a little humor. Been changing my own oil since 1965. Never has anyone else changed my oil. I'll keep doing it as long as I'm able to. 😉 Haven't needed to do much more to our RAV4. Changed ATF. Installed running boards. Changed air filters. Only had it for 16 months.
Maybe he didn't forget... I change our oil every 5,000 miles or six months. I check the air filter and replace it if it needs it; otherwise once a year (currently driving 10,000 to 12,000 miles a year).

Upon starting my own oil change, as usual, I discovered that crappy canister design. I went back to the dealership and almost strangled the guy who sold me that car. I have had Toyota employees admit to me later that this was done solely to increase service revenue and discourage DIY's from changing their own fluids. Found the correct oil filter wrench (correct diameter and number of flutes) at NAPA soon after for $7. Toyota wanted $120 for their oil wrench AND said it was not available to customers. Ready to strangle the parts guy and then went to NAPA. At least the 2010 model has a transmission fluid dipstick! Should NEVER have altered the spin-off design. Damn fools!
Does the 2018 model have a transmission dipstick?
Sorry but I like the cartridge oil filter system better than the spin-on canisters. Less boring and I feel like I really accomplished something when I'm done. 😉😊 Actually, I'm retired and it keeps me busy for an extra five minutes when I change my oil. I use a $25 oil filter cap wrench. The Motivx MX2320 (although your Corolla would use the Motivx MX2321 for the 1.8 engine). I'm prepared for a worse case scenario with a 27 mm socket and ½ inch breaker bar just in case I should ever need it but I feel that if torque specs are followed there should never be a problem getting it off.
And I don't believe what you were told as to why Toyota and other manufacturers went to cartridge filters... See Why Cartridge Filters

And no, the 2018 model does not have a dip-stick for the ATF.
Not sure about 2018 but I doubt it. My 2017 doesn't and it's the same body/engine as the 2018. It has one of those "sealed for life" CVTs with the claim that the fluid lasts "for the life" of car. That can mean anything. I'm trying to figure out how to service the CVT transmission fluid on my own (see recent comment I posted). The dealer tells me there's no need but they'd happily do it for about $500. That seems nuts for what amounts to a fluid change (the proper fluid is a bit pricey, however, but not that pricey).

As far as I'm concerned the dealers AND the manufacturers are acting in an illegal manner and not according to what they agreed to...
Consider this...
"The right to repair concept has generally come from the United States. Within the automotive industry, Massachusetts passed the United States' first Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act in 2012, which required automobile manufacturers to provide the necessary documents and information to allow anyone to repair their vehicles. While not passed at the federal level, the major automobile trade organizations signed a memorandum to agree to abide by Massachusetts' law in all fifty states starting in the 2018 automotive year."
So does this only apply to 2018 models and newer... I doubt they are honoring this for any year and model.

My response:
Everyone is entitled to their opinion and that’s great you enjoy extra time spent on the cartridge type. I’ve changed that canister approximately 23 times now on my 2010 Corolla. If I were able to use a genuine Toyota spin-on, I’d rather spend the difference in time savings (multiplied by 23 in my case) to work on other parts of the car if needed. (brake shoes and pads, coolant change, transmission change, exhaust, timing chain replacement) or anything else not related to the vehicle that I’d feel more productive doing.
I’ve used both types of filters successfully.

My response:
I agree. I’ve used both types of filters since 1976 successfully. No need for breaker bar or anything other than my $7 NAPA tool if torque specs and procedures are followed.
Your statement:
[And I don't believe what you were told as to why Toyota and other manufacturers went to cartridge filters...]
My response:
I can’t know what high level Toyota executives are strategizing in their board rooms as to why they moved to the cartridge style (and why they are now moving back to the spin-ons for that matter).
Also, I did not say that this is why other manufacturers changed technologies. I focused on Toyota alone.
Hmmm. I was at the parts counter at two different dealerships over the last several years and I asked the parts counter employees why they went to cartridge filters. At one dealership, I was the only customer there with a lone parts counter employee. At the other dealership, there were two parts counter employees present and no other customers around. Both times, their responses were sheepish and relayed in a hushed voice.
I didn’t see you standing beside me at either location verifying their responses.
Again, I don’t know what the grand objective is for the change in oil filter style but I do know what the parts counter employees believed when discussing the change with me. You are entitled to believe what you want. Service revenue profit margin on existing cars is always higher than the equivalent margin on a brand new car at a Toyota dealership.
Your statement:
[See Why Cartridge Filters ua-cam.com/video/qH79uDR2YFM/v-deo.html]
My response:
Eco filters that are easier to recycle?
Cartridge type: Crush the oil out of the filter and incinerate the paper element including the plastic components?
Spin-on type:
Crush the oil out of the filter and recycle the steel allowing that process to filter out impurities and no plastic involved
Sorry, putting aside recycling, number of pleats and the general nature of the quality of different brands and styles of filters that we can relegate for dozens of UA-cam videos to explore ad nauseam, it is just plain simpler and faster to replace a genuine Toyota spin-on oil filter vs a genuine Toyota cartridge filter. No O-ring needed either.
If the cartridge filter is more eco-friendly, why is Toyota moving back to the spin-ons? Are they publicly advocating a movement to less eco-friendly parts on their vehicles?
Your statement:
[And no, the 2018 model does not have a dip-stick for the ATF.]
My response:
Thanks, I’m honest enough to admit I was just too lazy to look it up. Maybe saving some time with the spin-on filter (multiplied by 23) would have encouraged me to actually look it up. (but likely not).
Cheers!

What do you think? I think regardless of why they went from spin on filters to cartridge filters they are switching back because of complaints from both customers/owners and from mechanics who refuse to follow the torque specs that can be found both in the printed instructions and on the oil filter cap assembly itself. It's been costing some owners extra expense paying the dealer for replacement oil filter caps etc. So that extra revenue evidently isn't as important to Toyota as making the customer happy is. The whole cartridge system has proven to be mostly just a huge blunder on Toyotas part.
I really don't care whether it's a spin-on filter or not, I was trying to make a little humor. Been changing my own oil since 1965. Never has anyone else changed my oil. I'll keep doing it as long as I'm able to. 😉
Haven't needed to do much more to our RAV4. Changed ATF. Installed running boards. Changed air filters. Only had it for 16 months.
KIA has the filter in front. Even easier.
Microgard oil filter, noooooooooooooo
You are so meticulous, not even the dealer resets the oil reminder feature.
H2O!
Just added water to windshield washer?
I hope it was at least distilled and not clog the lines with lime scale.
😳😳🤬🤬🤬
Hopefully used a diluted concentrate. They are very economical.
Not something you want to do where I live, thats for sure.
one reason why i wouldnt buy a new toyota . my filter is accessible through the wheel well , just crank the wheel over .
You forgot to change air cleaner 😉
Maybe he didn't forget...
I change our oil every 5,000 miles or six months. I check the air filter and replace it if it needs it; otherwise once a year (currently driving 10,000 to 12,000 miles a year).
Just because he did not film it doesn't mean it did not happen.
he didn't change the muffler bushing either.
i only use smart water windshield fluid
First!!
Well, try to be first at Scotty Kilmer's channel. Then you'll have something to brag about.
Steven Sevek Why can’t I brag about being first here? I enjoy watching this channel and i’m happy that I was first to get here.
@@idkmaybe5148
Well, you can brag about anything you want, of course. Consider this... Peter has less than 60,000 subscribers to this channel presently. Scotty has somewhere between 3 or 4,000,000 subscribers (making it almost impossible to be first). I like this channel better myself.
Thank you!
