new oil and lexus oil filter in, feels great when new oil is in, runs smoother and peace of mind

btw anyone who tinks any oil filter will do, they wont.

some guy did a study of about 6 oil filters including Halfords and pictures and all, and bacasically the manufactures one was clearly the best, he opened them up so you can have a look and did a report on all of them, its on google i'll try get link again

edit: how do you guys change the oil filter i got it off by going underneeth the car and had my arm wedged trying to remove it got it easially did not need any tools but just thinking how would ya get the oil filter wrench in there of do you remove it from the top??

1G-FE oil change only=3.9 Liters recomended grade 10W30/SJ

1G-FE oil change with filter=4.1 Liters recommended grade 10W30/SH

good luck :)

if your just draining the oil and changing the filter, 4.0 litres dead on is enough, 4.1 tends to over fill due to obviously a small amount of oil still being left in the engine.

Thread from the dead!

Not too familiar with the engine codes on the IS200 but would the 1G-FE be from around 2002/2003? If so and the sump capacity is 3.9/4.1 litres can anyone give me the same info for my 2JZ IS300?
