what oil filter do you use?
What oil filters do you guys use? Any recommendations on an 08? Advanced Auto has some crappy ones in stock that I don't trust. Anyone know the OEM brand?

Always go OEM
do you have a RWD or AWD? Cause I believe they use two different type of filters
RWD Toyota part #04152-YZZA3
AWD Toyota part #04152-YZZA5
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, I have an AWD and always used the 04152-YZZA5 filter straight from toyota.

I ordered a few of these in Japan a while back, there's nothing really special about them, but they come in nice boxes.
