Default Oil filter wrench size for ES300h?

Going to do an oil and oil filter change on the ES this weekend. What is the oil filter wrench size for the ES300h?

Welcome to the Forum Adam.

searching Google, It appears that the 300h uses the same type of oil filter as the rest of the Lexus line, and the same wrench:

Although I'd buy mine from a Lexus or Toyota dealer.

Works well and I believe a CL member makes it.

As indicated in my post above, I believe this is a better wrench than the Sewell one listed above. I have bolted a socket to mine, so it's simply a matter of using a ratchet, and poof it's off:

that is the one I have. [But have not used it yet.


it doesn't feel like a fine tool like the sewall one, mine feels like cast metal. but doubt I'll crack it.

I just use a 3/8" socket wrench, take off the whole filter housing, exchange the filter cartridge and "O" rings inside and back on it goes. I don't get involved with the drain tube out of the bottom fitting. Granted, a little more messy but quicker and easier for me...

Good question. I don't easily see it either on the 4 banger engine.
