Folks, for the RX 300 and 330, I have been told that BOTH OEM part numbers YZZD1 and YZZG1 will fit these cars. Anyone have any insight on this?

Many thanks,
JBL

from a "Bob the oil guy" forum (another bob, not me):

"YZZG1 is the same size as YZZD1.
The former is made in the U.S.A., and the latter is made in Thailand.
YZZD3 is longer than the two mentioned. "

There are quite a few Toyota filters that work fine.

Thanks Bob - never thought to check on the label of the filter itself. I am going with the G1 from here on out.

Toyota dealer carry the same model it cheaper to purchase there instead of Lexus dealer at least that what I do here at our local lexus and toyota dealers. hope this help!

Oh gosh yes I haven't bought a part at a Lexus dealership for years. Case in point, the oil filter at the Toyota dealership is $5.41 and I have priced it at a Lexus dealership at $8.55. Not much on the dollar amounts in this example but that is nearly a 60% markup in price...

Many Toyota filters are used across a whole range of Lexus/Toyota models.
