Really nice video. Since my canister stand tube popped out when I dropped it on the bench. Your video was the clearest on how to reinstall the tube. Thank you
@@MRNagiii what side? Like what side of the washer should you use? There is only one way it goes on. It will go in between the bolt and the pan. Never had a washer that needs a specific side towards or away from the pan with the 4Runner.
Absolutely outstanding tutorial!! You're the only one that took the time to clearly describe both the removal and attachment of the plastic air dam and metal skid plate. Thank you VERY MUCH for this detail. Now I'm ready to perform my own oil changes. I'll be referencing your video again when I decide to transition to the aluminum oil filter housing. Best step-by-step procedure on UTube!!
I did my 2023 4runner with first oil change at 1000 miles. Did it all right, I thought, but noticed an oil stain under the car, on my new pavers! Do you think it was a counterfeit aluminum cap, or mis-positioning of the new o-ring? really worried about more leaking, if I go back to the metal over the plastic!
Depends on where you got the cap from. If it was from Amazon or eBay I know there are tons of counterfeit parts out there that are not made to the exact same tolerances. So far I have had no drips underneath the vehicle that I have seen. I have put about 200 miles on it since I did the change over. On the bad o-ring I did notice a bit more squeaking from it as I hand tightened the filter as compared to the plastic housing. I was very liberal with fresh oil on it as you can see in the video. To the point that it is a bit of a mess, but I did not want it to bind up. Maybe you had a bit of that going on as well? Hard to say exactly.
Perhaps it will not leak if I try it again. Be very careful with the O-ring, lubricate and with great care, put into place. Then, a piece of cardboard under the spot, to catch/see if there is any leak. Then, if it leaks, the aluminum will get "recycled". Thanks. @@brycecarlson Follow up. tried to again install the metal cap. It did not start to thread in, so close inspection revealed the threads were different than those on the plastic existing cap. Lesson learned to buy genuine Toyota metal cap from the dealer!
@@davebrucher2283 yeah, not a problem. My other thought after I made that comment yesterday was torque spec. Maybe it was just slightly under torqued. I would be nervous about overturning but possibly it was not tight enough?
@@brycecarlson When you put on the housing, hand tight, it looked like it was more than 18 ft./lbs when you checked with torque wrench. Perhaps too tight, or too loose. Good things to be aware of. Thanks.
Looks like you did not take the locking tabs off the outside of the plastic housing and swap to the metal housing. My FJ Cruiser has locking two locking tabs. Is there a place for them to swap over or is it unnecessary?
I did it because in the past when my vehicles get to high mileage (150-200k miles) the plastic caps can crack and leak oil. This is just preventative as it was not leaking now.
Good video, Bryce. We produce LED lighting for AUTO. Do you have a plan to upgrade the headlight of 4runner to LEDs? We'd love to invite you to do a product review.
This is a bad decision you should not do this the plastic one is just fine you going to end up messing your engine up these aftermarket stuff does not work for this application even the car not says don't do it
😅Looks like I triggered some people that are weak Well foreign car levers that support companies that sell money back overseas instead of America I know a vehicle that has 500 torque and 400 horse that gets 32 miles to a gallon are better that actually is good for long trips and off-roading since you all think you're all smart figure out the vehicle I'm talking about don't cry because somebody doesn't like your junk

@@marklk8787 glad it was helpful!
Great showing how to change oil thank you!
@@banteaysreypro1984 you are welcome
7:55 What side way you should put the gasket oil drain plug on!

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing
What is the metal clip for towards the end of the video? around 34:25
Thanks

Is there a way to take out the tube without bending anything? I don’t like the idea of bending any metal on my parts. Thank you.

@@RAWJITSU yeah mine only had one, see timecode 33:52 where I transfer it over.
Have the metal housing and its so wishy-washy, sometimes i have no leak & sometimes i dont...
why should change plastic Oil Filter Cap to metal?
I did it because in the past when my vehicles get to high mileage (150-200k miles) the plastic caps can crack and leak oil. This is just preventative as it was not leaking now.
I Don't. I have high mileage camry and never had problems with the plastic oil filter canister. Changing it is another unnecessary expense.
Good video, Bryce. We produce LED lighting for AUTO. Do you have a plan to upgrade the headlight of 4runner to LEDs? We'd love to invite you to do a product review.
Hey! No plans. The 2020 and newer 4Runner comes with LED headlights as standard, and the 2021 comes with LED fog lights as well.
@@brycecarlson That's a bumper. I literally wish to work out something with you

@@kennyfoster4733 fair. Normally I would agree to stick to OEM. But it is not aftermarket it is OEM parts.
I would just upgrade to a better vehicle than Toyota
Bless your heart.
define better
Good point
It is so hard to find those old Ford Pintos, with original fuel tank and low miles!!
