Antman, you never cease to amaze me. Mrs. Antman must be very proud of your prowess under the hood and beneath the engine bay....
Truly a fantastic and wonderful presentation. Thank you.

Great job, thanks for the posting. But what a total mess to work with.
Still can't believe that Toyota felt this made any sense. I long ago gave up trying to mess with this basic job, "the oil change" on my 5th gen. Now after looking at how long it takes to just take the filter apart, I am wondering if my dealer is doing the entire job or just dropping the plug and oil. I am going to have to pay closer attention.
I still remember just how easy to get to the filter it was on the 4th gen.

Another reason to do your own. Certainly never trust a quick oil change place for this 22 step process.
Wonder if other makes and models are going this way and if they will be similar enough that the low end oil change places will master it ?
Also wonder if third party oil filters will become available or if there's a bunch of patents to keep 'em coming back to the dealer for parts.

OMG… Kudos to OP for excellent write up… but why in the world Toyota would complicate oil changes to that degree…?
I remember a lot of post here where people bushed 4th gen with V8 because of oil filter location vs. V6 models…I guess we can all smile or cry about those differences now…

Amazing post
Antman, I must say your post is fantastic and well written and photographed.
I do have one comment question, as much as I would like to do my own oil change I do believe in Canada at least that unless a certified mechanic/technician changes the oil we lose our warranty rights? My dealer will do the job for $69.95 plus our 12% HST tax and keep the warranty demons away. My problem is if I did the work I would have to use the free hoist that is available at my friends shop and he would likely not even charge me the labour/labor but still the warranty demons? Hmmmm.
