I seriously love all of your videos. You put everything together so well, and I appreciate everything you’ve taught me. From day 1 being a Tacoma owner I’ve subscribed. Just really wanted to show you some appreciation and thanks for all you do!
That means a lot and thank you 😊 seeing comments from people like you is why I love to make these videos!
@@ChloeKuo keep making and I’ll keep watching ☺️ just put in new headlights today, and referred to your videos for reference! You da best ☺️
Hi
I do the exact same oil change with the same tools, the only difference is, my method is a little bit cleaner because I use a Fumoto valve in place of the oil drain plug…super easy, Don’t even need gloves
I had no idea that existed, will definitely add one! Thanks for the rec 🙂
Fumoto F103s for about $30 (Amazon) as of this posting....been using it on my '17 for years now and have installed one on many other motors I own since. I remove my skid plate because the access isn't adequate and inevitably used oil is going to pool on top of it and will drip leaving you wondering if you have a leak. If you remove your skid plate be very careful not to strip these bolts as it's easy to do with power tools....something the dealership does regularly and part of the reason I do my own service, not to mention half the cost. Good video!
This is the first I've seen any of this . When did the oil filter get reinvented? I like the funnel that screws on.
Does a leave a little bit of oil behind in your oil pan?
They have a huge failure point which is not recommended if that happens. Engines need that oil.
I got the motivX kit a few months ago and finally did my first oil change the other day.
A bit If a pita because the oem plastic housing was on super tight, had to drop the rci front skid plate to get a large crescent onto the nut and use a dead blow hammer.
If I didn’t have this filter wrench I probably wouldn’t have gotten the filter off!
The drain tool worked great, trimmed the hose so it just went into the pan and the funnel was ideal to refill the oil!
I put on a Toyota metal filter housing and a fumoto valve so hopefully the next change is a lot easier!
I just ran out of free oil changes so I just ordered all this stuff right now lol
Thanx for the tips and the great video! 👍
Chole another great tutorial. We installed instead of the drain pan bolt, there is a drain pan drain valve. Just flip the valve and drains quick.
I like that filter drain!
Great job again
Going around thanking all these videos from different people for helping me learn this. Thanks :)
I'm surprised you don't use that faucet type drain plug that lots of ppl have and talk about in the tacoma forums. Still your content is very informative 👌 keep up the awesome videos
I def need one!!
I started doing my oil changes last year with the same tools. You are so right about that set. Thank you for the good video.
Motiv X TooLS ROCK!! They totally kick ass!!!
Great technique, I may have to change over to Havoline for the convenience
My favorite oil is the Royal Purple Brand SAE Multigrade synthetic oil. Sometimes I don't even know if my truck is running. Engine so quite and no vibrations. Use it on my 2020 Tacoma
Before installing your oil filter housing you should fill it up with oil a bit - that oil is in there for a reason, and you can but about 1/3 of a quart in before screwing it in and your engine is not effectively dry firing. I have the Motivx filter removal tool and can attest it is great, don't have the hose, but I don't mind a little dirty.
You're a genius! I love your videos and I have learned a lot from you!
I’m making this purchase thanks to you Miss Chloe. You should check out the ValvoMax oil change system to. I love mine, the only sticky part is changing the oil filter, but with this system I’ll be done even faster. Thanks
Hey,Chloe. Thanks for all these videos you have made. I just bought my first 2019 TRD Sport Tacoma and dying to make some mods. so far i have some coming my way that i have purchased. Your vids are very helpful to me and your insight is very important.
Definitely purchasing this kit, thanks for the demo Chloe.
Motivx are excellent. They are an exact fit. I use the funnel on all 3 of our Toyotas (1.8l and 2.5l). I do have 3 filter wrenches but well worth the expense if you do your own changes. An exchange step I do is siphon the oil from the dip stick tube. So very little drains from under the car.
Great tip! Thank you!
Chloe, your tool links are dead. The others work fine. Just thought you ought to know. Keep up the good work you do.😊
Used this video to do an oil change on my taco today :)
There is a company called Fumoto. It replaces your drain plug. Has an open and close valve. I personally haven’t tried it out yet. But I’m going to pick one up before my next oil change. Suppose to be even easier. Should check it out
May I recommend a magnetic drain plug? I use a "Gold plug". It always catches gunk the filter misses. I also recommend a metal oil filter housing available on line or most auto parts stores. The plastic factory one makes me nervous.
I really enjoyed watching this video, and I might add in my 62 years of life the only woman I know that changes her own oil in my niece. So nice to see a lady changing oil.
I can attest to the Motivx tool kit. It works great, and is so much cleaner as shown in your video. I did cut the tube down. Great video!
That tool is great, I love using it.
Hi Chloe...
I was surprised that you didn't mention the torque specs for the oil filter cap and for the drainbolt on the oil filter cap!
Oil filter cap = 18 ft.lbs.
Oil filter cap drainbolt = 10 ft.lbs.
We have a RAV4 instead of a Tacoma but I subscribed any ole how.
Hey thank you for the help. I feel better about doing it now
You should try a comparison of the TRD oil filter and the AMSoil filters
You shouldn't wear watches or rings while you work on your truck, that was one thing that was drill into us in the Army
5988, no faults lol

Very smart tip!
Thanks Chloe. You're awesome. And yes, It is helpful.
The only thing you miss is a FUMOTO valve. It will make the cleaniest oil change. Made in japan, I have that on all cars since at least 10 years ago. No more oil pan plug to remove, no mess in a drip pan. Connect the hose to the valve, put the end of the hose in an empty gallon. Open the valve to drain directly in the empty gallon. Then proceed with the other motiveX tools to finish the job.
I have that motiveX hose kit and would notgo without it !
I wanna get that trd plate looks nicer and it has the holes to change oil easy
I need that TRD skid plate. Aftermarket isn't much cheaper and might as well go with Toyota.
Oh wow I had no idea the oil filter was so different on the 3rd gens. I wonder if it's because they have such a long recommended oil change interval compared to everything else.
Right? I change my oil every 10k. The manual states that is the interval.
Thanks for sharing I just changed the oil in my Tacoma last week and it’s a total mess. I will be buying one of these kits!
for anyone prepping to do this, I'd suggest having a larger 1/2" breaker bar and a 24 mm socket for the oil filter housing because those things can be over torqued by the dealership, at least mine was. this was the solution I'd found on tacoma world, if anyone runs into a similar thing
Going in for my 40k in a couple weeks! Still on the dealer program and not doing myself yet.
Attach a tube to the OEM part that comes with the filter. Same as the bolt tool you are using, but free. Great videos Chloe. Awesome work.
Came to say the samething!
Mind sharing what breaker bar and torque wrench you have/recommend?
I recommend a fumoto oil change valve to make it even easier. I have used them on my last 5 vehicles and can’t praise them enough. Thanks for the content!
Any more car products you would buy at home depot?
Another awesome video Chloe, where did you get your skid plate?
Thanks. Awesome!
Where do you buy the oil in that box at?
thanks
What tool/size did you use to remove the access panel on the pro skid plate?
Do you need to replace the oil drain plug gasket every oil change?
I got in to drive my truck after a change. And i ran over the waste oil pan in the drive way while rushing to get done. It was a mess
how much oil did you put in? looks like the whole box
Can you do the transfer case and differentials too?
Great video , question i did first oil change on my 2022 tacoma and i didnt had the oil filter i bought mine from auto zone . Its all one with tge metal .
Thank you FCHOLI.I WAS confuse you made my day. God bless you..
Just ordered all that stuff, can’t wait to do my 1st oil chance on the taco! Thanks Chloe! 🌮🌮❤️
Chloe, Have you thought about up grading the filter housing to the aluminum one from a previous year. I did on my 2020 4Runner.
Totally unnecessary especially if you don't overtighten the oil filter cap.
@@njsongwriter I hate plastic. The aluminum one cost less than $20 I think.
Nicely done, someone at Netflix should talk to you about your own show. Love your channel.
I have the exact motovix kit, been using them for a couple years now to change oil in my 2017 taco TRD. Highly recommend using them for a mess free oil change.
good job
I always pour about a pint or 2 of new oil down and let that drain then put plug in that way you get rid of all the old oil.
Love your videos. I got the led set for my Taco. Do you know how to contact autogine? I did not get the correct dome light bulb.
I heard that if any of the new cars engines end up burning oil when there's not very many miles on the vehicle is because of waiting 10,000 miles to change the oil. It should be every 6 months or 5000 miles which ever comes first. Because if your oil is 6 months old and you only have 3000 miles on it. That means your oil is getting contaminated and this will cause your rings to stick and cause the engine to burn oil. Don't neglect oil changes. 6 months or 5000 miles. If 6 months goes by and your oil only had 2000 miles on it. Change it anyway.
The dealership I bought my truck through does a lifetime powertrain warranty. I just found out if you don't have your truck professionally serviced then you void the warranty. Such a bummer.
My 2023 was overfilled from the factory about 30oz. Anybody ever hear of that? I heard the dipsticks are terrible, and this one was hard to read clean but it seemed high.
At 100 miles I did it for peace of mind and it was overfilled.
Thanks for your video..i got a question..i would like do any service to My Tacoma as well.But dealership tell me they need to do all services to keep warranty..how You deal with that...???
Do you ever change your differential?
Have you ever tried the ValoMax oil drain valve or any of the other variants of that type instead of the OEM oil plug by chance? I’m curious on your take on them.
Hi Chloe! Are you messaging people. Through telegram? I supposedly won a Chevy from you? Are you hacked?
I am thinking of getting the TRD skid plate for my tacoma. When you drain the oil does oils get on the top of the skid plate when draining or is it just minimal? It's really hard to tell and I am pretty picky about keeping things minty clean and like new.
I ALWAYS remove the filler cap just in case for whatever reason it won't come off!
First time seeing someone mention Havoline oils. Most on youtube talk up Valvoline and Castrol
Amateurish because she didn't show the most critical step - how much to tighten the oil filter housing.
I am so embarrassed that I haven't changed my oil myself on my '19 TRD O/R yet - I had no idea it had a motorcycle-style internal filter.
Is that the Plastic oil filter housing? I heard the metal one doesn’t have a drain plug, therefore wouldn’t be able to drain the oil filter using the Motiv tool, is that correct?
I just purchased the motivx tool, cant justify paying someone to change my oil at 100$ a pop.
How many quarts?
Where do you get the 6 quart 0/20 ha olive oil from ? I did not see it on Amazon or at auto zone or advance auto parts
Nice tutorial. I would recommend that before you start the oil change pop the hood (if the hood for some reason didn’t open you’re stuck) and loosen the filler cap (so as to drain the oil faster). Pretty slick tool. Autozone use to have a large sheet metal pan made by Blitz. I use that instead of card board. Just wipe it down from any oil splatter.
Great tip! I will have to check that out
Get a fumoto oil valve and make it much easier and cleaner.
I have the same car. Can i put a higher content like 5w-20 in there? Pls respond back.
I know 30 ftlbs is factory spec for the drain plug…but thats allot of torque.I drive a tundra and feel like its going to strip putting that much.
Me too. I usually stop at 27 ft.lbs. which I think is the spec on a Corolla.
did you have to replace any crush washer on the drain plug? I know I had to on the transmission drain/ fill
I’ve noticed all the at home oil changes for these trucks, nobody puts oil in the new filter so it doesnt start dry… why is this?
If you use an empty water bottle with the plastic piece that comes with the filter you won't have a mess. 😊
That oil filter is completely useless. Just unscrew he whole hung and change both rubber rings.
What the hell? Did they forget for reset for 100% oil? SMH 🤦🏽♂️
If you install a Fumoto engine oil drain valve, that will make the job even cleaner.
Can’t you just unscrew the housing without the pre-drain step and just dump the oil out?
Might wanna try a Fumoto Oil Valve.
where did you get the skid plate?
Can't believe how small those cutouts are
Notivx tool kit no longer available on Amazon 🙁😞
sigh, i make a mess with the filter and forget to use that little drain plug every time.....
Any other recommendations on the oil? I haven’t seen it in stock at Walmart in months now..
I love your videos Chloe. Keep ‘em coming. We are so fortunate to learn from you.
Did you warm the engine, loosen oil cap and dipstick first?
Your plastic gloves are way too big for your hands
Too difficult Cloe, you need a Baxter Performance oil filter adapter which uses spin-on oil filters and a Valvomax oil pan plug; THEN you’ll be completely mess free!👍🏻👌🏻
Those are no good for the truck
Classy......
They make Drainplugs with Valves and Hose Connectors, like the One used for the Filter..... If you are wanting to 'Clean it Up' more.....
With the Skid Plate, should not be any concerns with it being snagged on anything.......?
Hi, I love your videos. Do you always use Havoline? Planning to do it my self now since my service warranty was already expired
I would drive it on the Ramps and take off the armor cover !
Super disappointed. First time doing the oil myself, bought the product. No one mentioned that if you can’t get the oil filter drain metal piece off. That all those products are absolutely useless. In attempting to get the metal piece off, it unscrewed the oil filter itself. Oil everywhere and didn’t even get to use any of the products.
Your housing plug was likely over torqued, done right, these kits are great.
The housing plug should only be torqued to 15foot pounds max and the housing itself to 20 to 25, better luck next time.
The fram oil filter comes with a screw in tool. Why Toyota doesn’t include one like that is beyond me. 🤣
