I did want to say one thing about adding a tube or hose to the plastic piece for draining the filter cannister. I used a piece of 5/8' heater hose. It was not the tightest fit but it worked without an oil mess. So if you have a 2 ft. piece in your garage it will work. Also I purchased the oil cup at Advance Auto - 65mm/14 flutes. Worked perfect. Be careful like others have said about putting the big O ring in the correct O ring slot. I used 5W20 Mobil 1 and the engine is even smoother running after the oil change. Love my Tundra.
how many mile do you have ??i think im waiting till there is 3000 till mobil1 i will be up to my third oil change by then
