Just grabbed a new one from Toyota and the parts manager said it’s only hand tight. Their service guy probably tighten it with a wrench and I had to use a breaker bar just to get it off. Torque lb for 17 Camry is only 7-8 foot pounds.

For the 2011 Corolla, there is an inexpensive workaround. I bought a quality brand 1/4 in torque wrench. It generally "clicks when it's supposed to but I was so paranoid after cracking my first filter housing I arrived at a simple workaround that gives me the desired torque, without overtightening. I also do not require a torque wrench. First ... when removing the housing, as gently as possible, unscrew the housing. Do not yank, grab, jerk or wrestle the housing off. Gently, gently unscrew the cap until finger loose. Remove normally after that. When tightening, gently tighten the cap towards the housing (base) surface. Just before you've tightened it fully, ensure you can insert a 0.15mm feeler gauge between the cap and the base. If you have a snug (not tight) fit. You're good to go. But I repeat, gently, gently tighten the housing down to that gap. More and you risk cracking the housing a few months later when you change your filter. Generally that is when the caps crack. This has worked without issue for two full oil changes without leaking and the housing was easy to twist off without an initial jerk or tug to loosen. It just immediately began to twist out as soon as I put the faintest pressure on it. That's it. Guaranteed "decent" accuracy of torque without overtightening and without a torque wrench. Best of days to all.

They made cheaper material. The older version made aluminum housing much better & last longer. Thank you for watching

@@kennynhannguyen8666 I don't understand why Toyota made the housing parts this way. If I had been driving and didn't notice the leak, my engine could have locked up. Now it's time to buy more engine oil and a new housing lol

Oh no. Just be gentle & use the oil filter cap tool line it it up to break it loose. Or use a big channel lock Player Loose it. Good luck
