    You need to pay no attention whatsoever to all the “you shoulda…” Pep Boys comments! This is an excellent and quite comprehensive tutorial. Side note, what a welcomed change to hear one of these videos from a female voice! I honestly suspect that someone with no mechanical experience could be walked through their first oil change with your direction (and Jason’s) and would not only save themselves money and the hassle of the occasional prick attempting to screw you with unnecessary repairs, but most of all they could bask in knowing they did the job right!

    And bonus points for mentioning to turn the wheel to the left. I’ve watched a few other vids on this just for fun and none of them think to do that. They just bitch about how hard it is to get to that filter. 😂

    Great video! You made a boring task entertaining. OEM Toyota filters are equally as good, if not better, than Mobil 1's. For your 3G, use either YZZD1 or the longer YZZD3. Both are also way cheaper than Mobil's, especially if you buy in bulk. Cheers!

    @Mike_44 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Very good video. I know you briefly mentioned it, but you should have made more emphasis on the crush gasket which goes mounted on the oil pan bolt. Not using one will definitely cause an oil leak.

    IF it's important for an owner to use "the best" oil, I have watched video lab comparisons of all the popular brands, and Mobil 1 is typically in the middle. Amsoil always seems to prove the best, with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum also right up there. Also, Shell Rotella-T full synthetic, with great results at a low price. Do a little research instead of automatically assuming Mobil 1 is the best (because of their massive advertising budget).

    • @kendellharbin
      @kendellharbin  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      All valid points - I will take this into consideration! Mobil is usually my best *option* with what is stocked at my local autozone/O’reilys

    A couple of 3rd gen pro-tips: swap the drain plug with a Fumoto drain valve (my '00 Limited uses the F103S) so you can just attach a plastic tube (I think it takes a 3/8" ID?) to the valve and drain directly into a oil jug (no mess). You'll still need a new crush washer when you install it initially but, in theory, you never have to remove the valve from the pan again. Also, get a form-a-funnel and position it under the filter before you unscrew it--that way you can direct the flow of oil straight down thru the control arms and into your drain pan. Getting oil in my skid drives me absolutely insane but it's so much of a hassle to drop the skid--I too am a petite gal who usually works alone. Gotta work smarter not harder :)
    Keep posting good shit! Makes me smile when I see women posting 3rd gen content.
