Oil Filters

Oil filters are an essential component of any vehicle's engine system, including Toyota cars, trucks, and SUVs. They help keep the engine oil clean by removing dirt, debris, and other contaminants that can accumulate over time.

When Should I Replace my Oil Filter?

When you should change your oil filter depends on your owner's manual's recommendations. Generally, it's recommended to replace the oil filter between 5,000 and 7,500 miles or every six months, whichever comes first. That means during every oil change or every other one.

Signs to Replace Oil Filter

• A decrease in engine performance
• Unusual engine sounds
• Oil warning light on the dashboard
• Dirty or dark oil
• Mileage or time since last replacement

If you notice any of the signs above, you'll want to inspect your oil filter as soon as you can. Sometimes, you may need to replace your oil filter more frequently, like if you drive in dusty or dirty conditions. And if you frequently tow heavy loads, you may need to replace your oil filter more often to ensure your engine is properly lubricated.
