Very Helpful. Thanks for posting .
cruiser1947 Thanks for taking the time to give me your feed back.
Jim thanks for the video, can you please list the size of the ratchets that you used, I dont have any tools on me right now and want to make the right purchases. Thanks.
+srikanth vemula The socket is a 14 mm and the oil filter tool you will need to buy at a auto parts store .It is made special just for these cars.
Very important to use torque wrench while putting filter back on 18 lbs ft of torque,or you'll never get it off again, and always put oil on gasket
How many miles did the car have at this very moment?
I was trying to hear if you had a intake cam noise but didnt hear it.
Good job. Thank you.
cnguyen616 Thanks for giving me your feed back.
Thank you so much Jim. Does the canister filter need to be replaced every time?
+Andrew Maurer Yes whenever you change the oil the filter must be changed.
thanks for the video. is there a washer to replace on the oil drain plug?
+Nelson Vega Yes if the washer is damage you should replace it.
Thanks for the Video, sorry but what tools are you using to remove the housing for the filter and size if possable.. Thanks
+David Moulton Actually that tool is made just for the plastic Toyota oil filter housing .I think it is made by KD but I'm not sure.I know you can get it at any large auto parts store.
Very informative
Thank you o. Resetting oil light because the dealership didn't do it
You're welcome!
I don't understand why there is a spring up inside the oil filter cavity.
Thanks Jim.
Happy to help .Good luck Jim
I dont drive often and it has been 8 mo. Since oil change. I just checked it and its full and clean. The sales people put 5w30 in it . I added a little 0w20 in the summer. Have a corolla 2011 w/53 thou miles on it. Not sure what to do. Any ideas?
Julie I always recommend using the oil that the manufacture recommends and that is the 0w20 .Don't let anyone talk you into using any other oil.Good luck.
A canista filta. Very informative. You dont drive lolo
I need to know if I need regular oil or synthetic or part synthetic?
This is the oil that it calls for .The 0W20 is full synthetic.
Grade ILSAC multigrade engine oil
Viscosity SAE 5W-20 or SAE 0W-20
SAE 5W-20 or 0W-20 engine oil may be used. However, SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for good fuel economy and good starting in cold weather.

What did you use to get the oil filter out. What kind of adapter?
Lisle filter wrench
I'm wondering where is the OCV filter on the 2011 Toyota Corolla?
OCV?
Does the drain plug have a gasket that needs to be replaced
Only if it is in poor condition.
is it not necessary to prime the filter before reinstallation?
No you don't need to prime the filter
I just got my oil changed in my 2011 Corolla and the mechanic said I should really change every 5,000 miles instead of the recommended 10,000 for 0w20. Which is right? I also was wondering if I should also change the oil filter every 10,000 miles or 5,000.
Your mechanic is correct 5,000 is when I recommend having the oil changed .The 0w20 is a full synthetic.The oil filter will always be changed with the oil change 5,000 miles..
jimthecarguy But how come the Toyota dealership says 10,000 and the car manual?
GamingHD, Toyota recommends changing the oil on your Corolla only every 10,000 miles. I checked with a good friend of mine who is a technician at Toyota and he says that Toyota has done extensive testing to ensure that the engine is still protected when the oil is changed every 10,000 miles. So don't worry about it.
Or, if you can afford it, every 5,000 miles. Cheap insurance.
@@GokuInstinct1 a general roll of thumb is every 5,000 mi if you do that you won't have any issues if your car is getting up there in mileage changing it even earlier may help keep it alive
What is the size of the drain plug?
+AwesomeKhmer I think it was a 14 or 15 mm.
I have a small rubber O-ring that came with my filter. It's about an inch diameter. Where does this go?
Sometime the filter fits a lot of different cars. If your car does not have that o ring you don't need it. Thank you I think? I'm happy to help.
@@jimthecarguy I had done my oil change on my 2011 corolla S, yesterday and w/o researching, I placed the smaller o-ring around the brass tube before placed my oil filter back on the tube inside the housing. Should I remove the small O ring? There was no small o ring on the tube base when I removed the old filter from the housing.
When putting filter back on Does the locking tab go back into position automatically or do you have to push it back into position?
Auto
You should not have to do anything with the retaining clip (locking tab) unless you are using an oil filter cap wrench that is designed for a larger oil filter cap.
I wonder who the f*** dislike the video cuz this vid is very helpful
Thank you but what I realized is you can't please everyone..Live stream tonight at 7:00 PM .I hope you can stop by.
jimthecarguy
I know you are right, but man!
Any ways, hey I couldn't get lose the canister of the filter even though that I was using the same tool that you did use in the vid to lose yours, any help ? I would appreciate! Thanks in advance
My 2011 Toyota has oil leak on the passenger side bottom. I don't see leaks looking from the top. What could it be?
The first thing to check is the oil filter housing area.That is on the passenger side.Keep me posted.
You nailed it Sir!. Cracked oil filter housing. The shop that service my car replaced it free of charge.
Great.It is a good thing that you saw the leak or who knows what could have happened.
Where can I get that tool?
You should be able to get it at any large auto part store.If not than on line.If you need the tool number let me know.
@Moon lite 4 years no response 😂
size of spark plugs plz
+Omar Jaffar The spark plugs are 5/8
How much oil I need to put in a 2011 Toyota Corolla?
Good question .The 1,8 liter engine takes 4.4 Qts and the 2.4 liter takes 4.0 Qts.
There's a 2.4L Corolla?
@@jermisious8737
Yes but it has a spin-on canister filter.
After decades of the doing it the easy way, some (no doubt an American) engineer comes up with this "improvement." Is there an adaptor that will accept a traditional oil filter.
+Ben Scrued No not that I know of
When cars first started using oil filters they were all cartridge types. The spin-on or traditional as you call it was the "improvement" that came about in the 50's because it was easier to change them out. In recent years the cartridge has made a come back due to it being less wasteful and it's come back was spear headed by asian and european car manufactures not american. Maybe learn a thing or two before spouting ignorance.
I've got a huge question I went to get a filter at my local shop for my 2011 Corolla and all I got was this little piece of shit with a black gasket I'm guessing. It's pretty much just the inside on an oil filter.
Yes that is what a lot of the manufactures are doing now.Thank you for stopping by the shop
jimthecarguy
But how do I change it?
It's in the video. You have to take the plastic part off, take out old filter insert and put new one in.
Changer huile moteur
The oil filter should be removed first, because it takes much less time to drain all of the oil out of the filter housing, than 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 than I could, if I only let it drain for say, fifteen minutes!
How much more of that old oil do you think you remove by waiting that much longer?
You’re in crack dude lol, an oil change should take 20 mins tops 😭
What happen if the securing latch was broken, how to prevent rotation of the filter cage
Ow20 is way too thin when hot to protect vital engine components, I run Ow40 in mine and have well over 200,000 and never touched engine.
Thank you for your input but I always use the oil that is recommended by the manufacture.This is the recommendation from them. Thank for watching .Jim Grade ILSAC multigrade engine oil
Viscosity SAE 0W-20
If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE 5W-20 oil may be used. However, it must be replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil change.
Ok
mark p The only reason manufacturers recommmend that thin of oil is for the small gas mileage increase not cause its best for the engine running a 0w40 is just common sense, oil temperatures in modern engines exceed 200 degrees and if you ever seen what 20 weight oil is at that temperature its like water, there is not enough viscosity to protect vital engine parts research it for yourself alot of ford owners having lot engine failures due to lack of lubrication to top end of engine due to the light weight oil that is recommended.
Thanks for you thoughts .Good luck
hi I have 2011 toyota corolla and 94,000 miles but oil 0w-20 still good to use
Ba da bing!
Passo oilchange
Thanks for watching
the cap wrench if correct size will not strip it out.
@@billybob042665 Worse video i ever seen , he did not show the most important part.. showing how to replace filter and oil filter o ring. We all know what a wall looks like.
Can't see what your doing
Looks like the Corolla takes about 40 gallons of oil ….wow😬😬😬
mmmm wish my filter was that loose... i can't turn it at all.....feels like i'm just sitting here stripping it
To be very honest I've had them were I could not get it off and I had to brake it to remove what a PITA.
Joy!
seems i have one that is deciding to be a PITA. even bought an OEM filter wrench with the grooves for the better grip on it.... still not budging. I don't have that metal clip though. i guess at one point, while under it's former owner, they decided it wasn't needed
haha! i just got it to finally turn! took sticking the filter wrench and socket on it and then placing my foot and pushing as hard as i could on it. broke the 'seal' that kept it from turning.... whew... now to drain and get it done
good video though! it was my go to for this car :)
Great job .Thank you for watching and your input
It had been put on too tight previously then. I've had them that bad before too.
Bad videograghy. Couldnt see how to set up orings
U never see filter change only him talking
person taping this did poor job following him
Thanks for watching.
Gave this a thumbs down because it doesnt specify tool size and numbers
Your welcome
Dude look it up online. What do you want this guy to do? Literally spoon feed you?
would be helpful if you are doing a video to show what you are doing. The video you are doing does not show much. You talking is all it does. Should try doing the camera better if you are putting videos up.
