Hi

I don’t think you’d find the OE too expensive There is one letter difference from those made in Japan or China and they fit from Feb 96 on.

90915-YZZJ4 is OE made in China for Toyota/Lexus cost me £11.99 from Lexus Birmingham.

Oh, ok I'll try my london lexus then,

A new sump plug washer is also only around a quid from Lexus.

Yep second that...lovely new sump plug...I believe the worse case price is £15quid for a filter...

I have the full Ls range: 400, 430 and 600h

the 400 and the 430 use the same oil filter.

I paid £6.50 plus vat for a genuine filter from toyota.

The filter you bought for £16, note down the part number, call toyota parts and get a price from them, would be less than half... 

If you need parts, use a toyota celsior reg (find one on sale), same parts will fit your car, buy them from toyota a lot cheaper... same parts.

give this part number to toyota dealer and buy the same thing for half the price. 

The privilege of buying the part from Lexus adds a premium onto the price for the same parts, do not let toyota know its for a lexus otherwise they will not sell you the part.
