for a few dollars more, you may want to consider a K&N air filter, so you would never need to buy another filter, just clean it periodically.

Thats true,but I had problems with my 2001 RX mass air flow sensor using that filter. (and it wasnt due to over oiling)

Yes, that is the correct number. Many Toyotas use the same filter, so there are opportunities to save $$ over the Lexus dealer.

You absolutely right ! My Lexus dealer wanted $28.00 for it. I got it at my local Toyota dealer for $21.00 with the tax included !

And you can purchase the WIX equivalent for much less:

Search, and I am sure you could easily beat that price as well. I bought a couple at the same time.

Fig,that is what I had in mine. But it looks different than the Toyota filter. The Toyota filter looks like a small pillow.

Only concern would be what shipping adds to the total.
