    I do my own changes since Toyota just about screwed my 2005 Camry using the wrong filter.

    Bought Toyota OEM filters in a 10 pack on Amazon.

    As long as you’re getting set up to do it yourself, you might as well get a Fumoto Valve to make it easier. I have one on all my vehicles

    The location of the oil filter, the 4.0 filter is super easy to change.

    Read the title, thought some enterprising TW member developed a ‘self changing’ filter.

    I can’t tell you how disappointed I am right now...
