Oil Change on a 2016 Toyota Camry

Changing the oil on a 2016 Toyota Camry.

[@nickv4073]

Practically no one bothers with removing the little drain plug on the oil filter housing. I never do. If it ain't leaking, its fine. Just go straight to removing the entire housing. Save time.

[@sonofman70x7]

Good video. Straight to the point, shows every step in detail. Well done.

[@thomasfixit7931]

Thanks!

[@danthemtlman]

Drain plug 30ft lbs, filter drain 9ft lbs, filter housing 18lbs. I've seen drain plugs come loose with vibration . 30ft lbs is pretty tight.

[@gilbubelis3958]

HEY !!! NOTE : Filter and plug should be tightened with specific torque ! You could over tighten or strip if not careful !

[@KingLedoo]

Short, detailed and straight to the point video. Thank you!

[@thomasfixit7931]

Welcome!

[@a.m.4049]

Lucky you. My housing is stuck like glue and I broke the plastic on it. Still stuck now I have to take it in.

[@thomasfixit7931]

Sorry to hear. The person who did it before you probably put it on to tight

[@EliteBean1]

Good video helped me a bit, also just something I came across don't over tighten the filter housing mine broke when trying to take it off, the last shop to change my oil caused this. Should be torqued to 18fp.

[@AdityaChauhan-y8q]

Can I get a list of all the EQUIPMENTS PLEASE.

[@AuroraRatzlaff-og5mz]

My mom wanted me to do her oil so I looked up a video just to see where everything is but damn 😂 you gotta change all these gaskets and O rings and the drain plug. Maybe cause my trucks older but I don't do all that

[@thomasfixit7931]

At least they come with the filer, but I like the oil filter in one piece and throw it away

[@EmpireProd]

You should use a drain hose its the new way of getting the oil out without worrying

[@miked5106]

I used the same filter wrench as u abd it shattered!!! I'm going to buy another one. Is the unit that twists out made of metal? Could I heat it b4 I put the Rachel on it?

[@essiecoolman2738]

Really good job explaining thank you

[@thomasfixit7931]

Thanks!

[@Joshua-ps5de]

You forgot to "grease" or put a coat of the engine oil on the gaskets. Not complaining, cuz other than that, great to- the- point video.

[@thomasfixit7931]

My hands were so oily when I put it back in place it coated it =)

[@leosotelo5119]

great video. going to do my oil change next time. what’s the metal circle to remove the filter call?

[@thomasfixit7931]

oil filter wrench or oil filter cap wrench

[@mediacreationsusa]

It's a oil filter cup - best to buy them as a set so you can use them on anything - I have 2 sets actually and with 3 cars it's nice

You forgot to mention the safety pin on the oil filter housing

[@squillz8310]

I just went from my 2008 Camry to a 2016 and man, I'm actually so upset at how much more convoluted they made this process. Just changed the oil on a 2005 CRV and it's the normal self contained filters. Now I have to buy a 64mm socket for the housing. And rubber washers that I have to replace in the filter? Why do car manufacturers have to try and fix things that aren't broken?

[@mediacreationsusa]

I was just thinking this exact thing - the old filters were a perfect design - takes 1 min to change them with the right cup - my 2003 is a 15 min oil change if I need it to be!

[@solomjpo1294]

Do i need to redo my oil change? Should i worry? I just realized i have not done it correctly for the past 3yrs. So i didnt know i was supposed to drain the oil using the plastic tube before i take off the filter. I didn't see your video before doing an oil change.

[@brotherkossi]

It's fine. Your job would be just messier if you don't drain using that little tube. If you remove the filter straight, that oil going to come out, just will be messier.

[@solomjpo1294]

@@brotherkossi thank you for the response. Next time I'll try to remember to use the plastic tube so it won't be messy.

[@solomjpo1294]

could you please provide the link or name of the tools you used for this video?

[@thomasfixit7931]

I gave them to you in the video

[@Jerry-wx3bf]

@@thomasfixit7931 you did not. For the white drain piece all you said was “this piece”. Great job nonetheless!

[@squillz8310]

​@Jerry-wx3bf the drain piece comes with the filter he bought from the manufacturer, and in the video he said you needed a 64mm oil filter socket.

[@haroldmodz5784]

What size ratchet is it for the oil filter wrench?

[@stephaniereilly3718]

[@jasonstahl1244]

Nice video! What kind of oil drain pan are you using?

[@thomasfixit7931]

I don't remember the brand, but got it from Walmart

[@davidcampbell1899]

I use the whole bottle, the extra 200ml (cup) wont hurt anything. If you put in a 1 whole Liter or Quart to much, then your in trouble.

[@ChicagoRob2]

Yup, I dump the whole jug into my ‘17 Camry. Oil level looks perfect on dipstick.

[@jorgelinarte5457]

Awesome bro thanks for the video

[@mikesniper11]

What if you don’t have a new gasket screw can I use the one I took off ?

[@thomasfixit7931]

I like to have a new one, but if it doesn't leak, it should work.

[@futfut1]

I bought my 2016 Camry used. It did not have a gasket or crush washer. I've been changing the oil for the past few years just using the oil plug. Never saw any oil leaks in my driveway.

[@rileywalker4823]

This is like rocket science compared to my Audi😂 I couldn’t imagine having an oil filter on the bottom of the car. And my oil filter is one complete unit so just unscrew old and throw it away. Take new one out of box and screw it on.

[@thomasfixit7931]

My Ford F150 is that way, that's the way it should be

[@goldencisco]

What's the size on the oil filter wrench and where did you buy it?

[@thomasfixit7931]

I said the size in the video, I don't remember

[@daddiestlonglegs3599]

Its a 64 mm oil filter wrench

Check your book, its 4.6 Qts 4.4 Liters.

[@m0llyb0y15]

Thinking on buying this car how this model has been treating you and how many miles do you have ? Does it still drive new smooth ?

[@thomasfixit7931]

It has been good so far. Bought it used with 60k, it has 70k miles now.

[@brblum]

I have one. Bought 3 years ago with 32K miles...now 170K. Drives great. Just change oil and filter every 5K miles or 6 months like The Car Care Nut says to. Oil is cheap...engines aren't. And of course other recommended maintenance. Cheers!

[@Oliver2020.]

​@@brblum no serious issues? Transmission problems?

[@brblum]

@@Oliver2020. Why do you ask? I said that it drives great. Any particular reason you ask?

[@VincentScales]

How often do you change your oil? I have my 2016 Camry SE changed at 5,000 miles instead of the 10,000 miles recommended!

[@thomasfixit7931]

When the light comes on. I check the oil level every thousand miles. If looks dirty, I will change before the light comes on

[@ChicagoRob2]

Every 5000 miles on my ‘17 Camry.

[@michaelengle9062]

I do every 10k, but those of us who rely on oil sales for indirect retirement income love it when people change it more often. ; ) but really if it gives you peace of mind, do it at 5k
