Thanks for the guide. I have been using the dealer for all of my changes, up to now. My dealer is so booked that it’s almost half a month away for an appointment. I do all of my oil changes on my diesel, so not new to changing oil. Well that is what I.said before doing the 4Runner. I was able to get the oil out and everything looked good. That was until I came to the Oil filter housing. Was able to drain out the oil no problem but when it came time to remove the housing, that was a no go. I started using a cheater bar but decided to back off doing that on the plastic housing. I felt I was putting a lot of pressure on the breaker bar but nothing. I didn’t want to break the housing. If anyone has experienced a oversight housing, just how much have you had to crank on the housing to make it give? I truly believe the prior oil change tech over tightened the housing.
