Glad to see this-I’ve been recommending these for a while. The design/engineering decisions from Toyota lately have many of us scratching our heads. Gone are the days where ‘Toyota’ = a vehicle that your kids would get one day because of longevity & reliability. Now, they try to convince people that 0W-08, 0W-16, or even 0W-20 (in a heavy 4WD SUV) + 10,000 mile oci’s are somehow good ideas.

On my friend's 2013 Corolla, the oil filter is mounted horizontally and the big socket to remove the plastic Cap cannot be installed because of the oil pan closeness. .

Does it change the oil capacity using the Baxter adapter and spin on filter?

I never fill my oil filters since the 1970 and I never broke an engine for it, as long as you do not rev the engine at 6,000 rpm. . On first start. .

Good for you !! I see you got a Baxter adapter. Only hand tighten. They won’t leak or back off.

If you add baxter modification to oil filter does it void toyota warranty?@@fixityfix

Did you give any thought to installing the Baxter remote oil filter adapter? Relocating the oil filter to the top side of the engine bay?
@fixityfixАй бұрын
I did! I was tempted, but decided I didn’t want to add any more complexity (hoses/passages) to the oiling system. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@fixityfix having the oil filter up top is something I really miss about my Subaru. I hate taking off the skid plate to change the filter on the 4Runner.

You cannot use the factory skid plate with Baxter adapter . It is sitting down lower so you have to buy new skid plate. 💰💰💰

Thanks for watching and commenting! Yes, the aftermarket skid plates are big $! The RCI skid I got a long time ago has been one of my favorite mods, especially in making maintenance quicker and easier. The Baxter instructions indicate the stock skid plate can be modified, but I have never tried it. Check out the 3:40 mark in this video.

With a Fumoto valve on the engine drain plug and the Baxter adapter installed, oil changes are really fast and not messy anymore. When I was Ubering with my 4Runner I would rack up the miles really fast. No way I was going to a dealer or Jiffy lube.

Thanks for watching! Yes! I love the quick change valves! I have the Stahlbus valve on this 4Runner! amzn.to/3xrsKLE
