Oil Change, and Replacing a Non-Broken Part on the 2018 Toyota Highlander

[@ThatCarVlogChannel]

As promised, I monitored the new filter cap and kept an eye on the oil level. Pleased to report no leaks from the new cap!

The primary reason the plastic oil filter caps fail is because whoever changes the oil and filter doesn't follow the recommended torque spec of 18 ft.ibs.

You might want to read the instructions also, I know many people will skip that part. There's a small tab that you need to straighten out on the part that the tube sits on. This will keep it in place and prevent it from coming apart from vibrations. The little wing tabs are bent up by default so that you can change the tube for the proper size you need.
