Thank God that Toyota uses the spin on oil filters for the 4th gen Tacoma. I’ve hated the 3rd gen filters that get oil everywhere. My 2024 Blue Crush Metallic 2024 TRD Off Road Tacoma with the Premium Package is in production and should arrive at my dealer in mid August. Yes, they didn’t put any dealer up charge on the MSRP and they discounted it just over $3400.
@@lc7192 sounds like you got a solid deal w that discount. Agreed the plastic housing ones were a PITA to change. One of the many perks w the 4th gen, enjoy
@@DatTacomaDad Thank you. I haven’t seen anyone else do a video on an oil change on the 4th gen and you did a great job.
Yes so glad the Tacoma went back to the spin on cannister oil filter,and also when putting oil in the engine it's straight up and down 👍 not that way on the 3rd Gen it's at a bad angle and if you don't watch out can easily spill oil down through the engine on the 3rd gen
Yes, and to all those 3rd gen Tacoma owners, you too can have spin-on filters with a Baxter Performance oil filter adapter. Saves a lot of time and mess.
Don’t forget to remove the old crush washer before you put the new one on! I didn’t see you do that in the vid. Mine was on there pretty tight and had to be scraped off the oil pan, but you definitely don’t wanna leave the old one underneath of the new one. It’d be better to just leave the old one on and save the new one for your next change… unless yours came off with nut as you removed it. Mine certainly didn’t!
No you are 💯 correct. Mine was stuck pretty good I had to scrape it off w the oil filter wrench, not rec for general audience. I added a fresh one in the video.
Normally they come off a lot easier I’m guessing Toyota playing the long con made the first one extra sticky.
@@DatTacomaDad 😂 yeah… did your filter come with the new washer or did you just stash it in the box?? I actually forgot to buy the washer when I originally bought my new filter and oil and had to run back to the dealership to buy it 🤦. I almost decided to just leave the original on there but wound up scraping it off same as you.
It did come w the washer but for an astronomical price. $1.53 a pop, which I’ve never had to pay for before…
You’re smarter than me. If I didn’t have a washer on hand and everything was drained id put back on the old. I know I’ve done it before 😬
Look at that fresh clean oil. 👍🏼
@@noxnyc23 the freshest 🤙🏽
I'm an auto technician of almost 20 yrs , you have to understand 0w20 is only recommended by the manufacture to satisfy the EPA and cafe laws and regulations . its to help achieve the absolute best fuel economy . it doesn't have true long term engine life in mind . With any gasoline turbo engine I HIGHLY suggest running 5w30 synthetic . it offers much better sheer strength with the added oil temps created by the turbo . this especially matters if load up the truck or if you tow anything at all . Also do not go with Toyotas 10k mile oci's . 5k oci's tops .
Thanks for weighing in. With your expertise, does it void your warranty running 5W-30? Is there damage that can happen w cross contamination when switching to 5W-30?
@@DatTacomaDad absolutely no worries about warranty , in other countries Toyota recommends the use of 5w30/10w30 with their engines . its just north America that has these ridiculous fuel economy regulations which forces Toyota to use these thin oils . I run 5w30 in my 21' rav4 that calls for 0w16. the engine is actually much quieter because of it . plus not really a noticeable change in fuel economy
What oil weight would you recommend for the 3rd Gen?
@@DatTacomaDad I would rather trust the manufacture recommendation than a random CZcams account with no contents and no uploads aside from a self-claimed title. Stick with the driver manual. Oil change between 5k to 10k miles is fine.
Right on! Toyota built their reputation for longevity 200,000 plus miles on 5w-30. Got my 1st new Toyota in 1986. If leave the oil fill cap on it will not flow as fast and less likely to end up with a big mess.
Excellent video. Word of caution though @ 4:42, I wouldn't recommend poking the plastic like that on the filter. You risk getting some of that plastic into the filter. It's better to pull the plastic off.
Thanks for the advice. I didn’t think anything of it at the time but could definitely see how that could happen.
Sweet Camry, bro!!!
I love it!
Thanks for posting.
That tool box nice where did you got from
It was a gift so 🤷♂️
The oil came out fast because you had the fill cap off.
@@Tundra-me4wt and also cuz I’m used to working w 5W-30
pre filling filters is not really required, you would never see a dealer doing that.
I agree w you that pre-filling prob isn’t required, but I’m doing it for science! But I also wouldn’t use the justification that “the dealer doesn’t do it” because they are in the business of selling cars and maintaining them at the bare minimum.
Dealerships do quick shitty work
Love your Tacoma!
Me too! 🤙🏼
GOOD DIY video. All Toyota come with FREE 24 months maintenance, is your Tacoma not come with it?
It does, they just won’t change the oil out until 10k miles. That’s too long to go IMO so I did it myself earlier.
Yeah idk about that the Car Care Nut also recommends 0w20
@@michaelptm2269 I think the important thing here w turbos, no matter the oil type, is to change it at least every 5k. Don’t go the 10k before a change. Especially for how easy it is to change out. Car Care Nut has some good advice as well.
LOL@ gardening gloves.
I only use Amsoil
Gotta use what you know
You can do you self the oil change and Nat lose the guaranty?
Yes, I’d be sure to use Toyota filter so there’s no questions when it comes to warranty.
