Almost all Toyotas with the 3.5 V6 take this oil filter. 04152-YZZA1. It may be cheaper/easier to go to the local Toyota dealer and get your Toyota 0W-20 oil at the same time. It is made by Mobil to Toyota specifications and is a bit more robust than Mobil 1 0W-20 for almost the same price. Although your engine probably won't know the difference between it or Mobil 1 or Pennzoil synthetic 0W-20. Also pick up the drain pan washers at the same time, although I did buy a pack of 10 on eBay for really cheap. Again, most Toyotas take the same washer.

Also this is a canister oil filter and you should get this specific wrench to remove the housing, a typical oil filter wrench will not work. Get the Assenmacher TOY 640 tool. Get it at Amazon, the dealer may not have it, or may deny it exists.
Amazon.com: Assenmacher Specialty Tools TOY 640 Oil Filter Socket Wrench for Toyota/Lexus: Automotive Amazon.com: Assenmacher Specialty Tools TOY 640 Oil Filter Socket Wrench for Toyota/Lexus: Automotive

You just stick a big socket on the end to remove or install it. The canister has 2 rubber O rings you replace with new ones that come with the new filter cartridge. Instructions will be in the package.
