Oil Change on 2015 Toyota Corolla. Special Tool to remove oil filter housing.

Last oil change I tried to removed the oil filter with a regular filter wrench and other things and succeeded in braking the housing and render it un-usable. I did some research and found on Amazon the actual removal tool that Toyota uses. The owner of the car told me that the dealership wanted over $30 for the tool or $250 for an oil change. I told him I have the tool and I'm free this day and he left the car with me and even brought me a case of Modelo lol. It took me 15 minutes all in all.

Suerte tengo que el VW tiene el filtro arriba, me compre una maquina de succion de aceite y le saca todo sin tener que meterme abajo.

Con el filtro arriba es un tiro. Este filter housing tiene unos clips que sin esa herramienta es casi impossible sacarlo.

Good deal, do you connect it to the air compressor?. Send me a link. I got one of those sucker pumps la mas "baratita" the cheapest hand pump, for the master cylinder and for the GMC transmission flush. But I like to look at the engine oil drain magnet too.

You didn't change the o-ring on the oil filter cap!
I hope you're changing that oil every 10,000 miles and not every 20,000. It looked like sludge inside the oil filter cap.

Did not replaced the oring this time I kinda forgot, luckily I change the oil regularly less than 10k miles. Old oring looked good though.
