Time For An Oil Change

[MacRS200]

Done about 8K since I got the Tezza and want to change the oil.

Can anyone tell me if there is a generic filter that will fit that I could get from a Motor Factors or Halfords or do I need to order one on-line?

Any advice on the grade of oil would also be apppreciated, was thinking about a fully synthetic 15W - 40.

TIA Neil

grade of oil is perfect.

Mahl do Tezza filters. Can get them from most motor factors.

I have the code at home if required.

Thanks Zee

Code would be great if you can get it for me, got a good factors round the corner from work so can nip out and buy one :D

I'm starting to think that all Toyota oil filters are the same. certainly the one I bought for my GS is identical to the one I bought for my import Estima.

I bought an OEM lexus one in the end - only cost £8.00 - probably the cheapest thing I've ever bought in a lexus dealer

Yes but which filter did you get mate, pretty sure a Tezza won't be in Halfords little book.

Mahle filter: OC 216 for the Tezza RS200.

You can get them from Toyota or lexus if you call them too.

I have a TRD one - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Genuin-TRD-Oil-Filte...1QQcmdZViewItem

Have a talk to Greeneyes, or check that forum, he makes a good recommendation about an alternative filter.
