      Where can I the following OEM parts for my 2021 Toyota Corolla XSE.
      1. Oil Filter
      2. Oil
      3. Carbon activated cabin air filter
      4. Engine filter
      I do want to use OEM parts. I could not find the carbon cabin filter even on Toyotas website.
      Also when I do my oil change do I need anything else.
      Not sure if you do any videos on how to jack up these cars and where to place your jackstands as well as where to place the jack when raising the car up. If so I really need that.
      Lastly. Do you have any recommendations on a really nice jack. I have also seen jack safety bars that attach to the jack to prevent it from going down.

      ​@@angelad75 Hi Angela! Those parts can easily be obtained from you dealer (and in some cases from the internet) Regarding jacking the car up, I don't use traditional jacks, I use lift system (link in the video description) saves me a ton of time over jack and jackstands and takes little to no space in the garage since it's stored underneath the car.

    It’s usually a common practice to prime the oil filter before you install. Hard on this model since it sits sideways but i would of put at least half way.

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hi FedyFedz! While some people do prefill (prime) the oil filter to avoid media shock, however since the service manual doesn't call for this, I don't since I usually just stick the service manual instructions (but thanks for sharing this tip!). Cheers!

    Toyota recommends changing the oil and filter on my 2.0 liter, 2022 Corolla Apex every 10K miles. It takes 0W16 full synthetic oil. Do you also recommend oil change every 10K miles? Do you recommend adding BG MOA oil additive?

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Chris! I like to follow the intervals recommended by the Toyota service manual for scheduled service, I seen some crazy cases where the dealer was quick to deny warranty if the maintenance was not followed to the letter. That being said, now that my Corolla has recently passed it's warranty period, I'm definitely going to increase the frequency of my oil changes (While I don't have data to support 10K is too long, I see oil changes as cheap insurance) Regarding the BG MOA additive, I have not used it in the past so I can't comment on it's performance (But the same would apply, if you are under warranty I would be careful not to add anything not prescribed by Toyota for now) Hope this helps, Cheers!

I was told Toyota switched from recommending OW-16 to recommending OW-8 midway through the year, same engine, same everything, just recommending OW-8 in the late year models. Should I vary using OW-8 and OW-16 oils, or should I stick with either of the two? Thanks for help in advance.

      Hi Tim! I recommend sticking to the oil weight recommended by your owners manual. Remember somethings the oil weight will be different for cars sold in different regions or when there is an update to it (due to better understanding of engine performance and endurance or due to changes internally to the engine that may be not visible to the end customer) Cheers!

    Why did you choose Valvoline over other brands especially oem toyota oil?

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Edison! I linked both Valvoline and the Toyota OEM oil in the description. I use Valvoline since I had good results with it on several other cars. I also had good results with Mobil and in another one of my cars I do run OEM oil, I think is more a matter of preference as long as the oil used is top tier and meets the manufacturer spec. The Toyota oil is about double the price than Valvoline or Mobil so that may also be a factor when folks choose oil. Check out the BoBistheOilGuy forums, I think you would enjoy it. Tons of info on oil and oil filters and which one is better. Hope this helps and thanks for watching bud!

      Hi DEFCON zero! While some mechanics will primed their oil filters, I have never done it as I follow the service manuals to the letter lol and the Service manual does not call out for priming the filter, however I know some people prefer to do so. I have also added the Torque specs to the video description. Cheers!

    Please do not follow the 10,000 mile oil change intervals Toyota recommends.
    Do not go more than 6000 miles without a oil change. It will only benefit your car. Trust me.

      Hi Modi! I would be careful deviating from the service manual scheduled service, I seen some crazy cases where the dealer was quick to deny warranty if the maintenance was not followed to the letter. That being said, now that my Corolla has recently passed it's warranty period, I'm definitely with you as I plan to increase the frequency of my oil changes (While I don't have data to support 10K is too long, I see oil changes as cheap insurance, can you imagine the guys running the 15K extended oils! ouch!)
