Recommended oil and filter
I am going to start doing my own oil changes in my 2010 ES350. Any recommendations on oil and filter? Currently have about 31K miles.

Toyota filters and any 5W-30 dino oil will do. Nothing special about the engine. I change it every 5000 miles but I only have 22,000 miles on the car. Oil is still clear after 5000 miles.

i stopped doing my own oil and filter changes a long time ago they stopped being cost affective between my time and the amount a good filter and oil cost
i save money going to the dealer
these days almost all of them will be willing to match a competitors price
the lexus dealer down near my school offers oil changes for 24.99 special sometimes 34.99 specials the lexus dealer near me price is 55.99 i show them the other dealers price they match it

Good way to go but being retired it affords me the time to do what I want when I want to. Also having a lift in my garage makes working on my various vehicles pretty simple. As long as it doesn't interfere with my golf or fishing time all is good. Then again I still cut my own lawn and split my own firewood. Enjoy
ah well that is cool fun me im not retired can't afford to be for another 40 years i think lol

I grab a $25 jug of Mobil 1, an extra qt to make 6 qts total, a Fram filter and head for the Walmart checkout. My dealer quotes over $100 for a Mobil 1 "service".
Jerry, good tip on the oil filter deals. I buy bulk quantites for my other vehicles but I've never considered it for my wife's car.....shame on me!

It's like cutting the lawn. When I was working I didn't like it because I didn't want to waste the time. Now it's kind of relaxing and I can do it whenever I want. Enjoy the ride.
