Just got my Corolla 24 and its time to replace the oil. Will have to do my own oil change since I DO NOT TRUST the dealership to get it right. Last time I took my rav4 for complimentary oil change the dealership sucked the oil out through the dip steak hole add fresh oil on top and called it a day. I witness mark my oil filter housing and other parts. None were disturbed. Conclusion. Oil filter was not charged. Plus you never know what oil they use.
I just changed the oil in my 2024 Corolla and noticed it took almost 5 qts, not the 4.4 in the manual. I know the 2023 model takes 4.9 qts. for the 2.0. I wonder if it was a misprint in the manual. The old 1.8 took 4.4 qts. I skipped 0w8 and went right to 0w20, the engine seems quieter to me. No reason to fear the warranty boogie man, the Australian owner's manual even recommends 5w30 for the same engine.
That engine started with 5W-30 oil, then 5W-20 oil, then 0W-20 oil, then 0W-16 oil, now 0W-08 oil, and 0W-06 oil is in the works in Japan. It takes a bit of looking around the world in fact but that is the linage of oil for that engine. I use 0W-20 oil same as my lady friend does in her Honda HRV. But you do what you want/ after all it is your brand new engine.
There’s a good chance the original oil filter is a made in Japan Denso 90915-10009. You can still buy that from Toyota however the part number that you used is the correct replacement that most dealerships and other shops would use.
It was the yzzn1 on it when I took it off. I guess they use them both. They are both made by Denso but the yzzn1 is made in a Thailand facility. I might seek a 10009 on my next change.
Yes, both filters are available. I used the YZZN1 filter when I changed it a few weekends ago. I used the Mobil 1 0W-8 oil from Walmart as well. It's not readily on the shelf, but you can have it delivered home in a few days' time. What was the part number of the filter tool you bought? I bought a set of Vevor cap wrenches and they work, but they don't allow you to put the square drive in all the way if you bottom out the cap on the filter. Funny after I did the oil change, the dealership called for the car's "5,000 free service" and I told them that I already changed the oil and filter myself. The woman said, "It's not for that. It's for tire rotation (I don't even have 3,000 miles yet) and fluid top off". That tells me as you stated, that they are pushing the 10k oil change interval. Like you, no dice for me. 5k/6 months and being it's a Toyota, it will last a long time.
And Toyota owns Denso/35 % of Mazda, 20% of Subaru etc etc etc. The engines all designed by Yamaha in Japan but built by Toyota. How many Tundra engines are they changing right now? Oh ya, 102,000 not counting future issues with the 2024 model/25 model. We shall see I guess. I use the oil filters made in the USA an sold by Canadian Tire here in Canada.
Hey, Magnum 8 is all thats on them. Try this link.www.walmart.com/ip/Magnum-Automotive-Group-1002-01-Magnum-16-000-Lb-Automotive-Ramp-System/132035152 I think I scraped ever so lightly when I went up too. not bad. You might be able to prefab something with wood.
An odd amount of oil to put in it.4.6L I filled it to the max as in the manual says for my engine in a separate container marked on the outside and used it for nothing else. Makes it easy. Do NOT overfill any engine. Do check the oil quantity often as the additives do go away in between oil changes. Like I said I do mine at 3,000km every time. Not really an issue, but could be I guess. Make sure your manual doesn't list the older engine they used. Different quantity. See. They can't even get the manual right. Toyota Corolla Cross 2023. And no tow hooks. But shown in the manual. Trust nobody is my motto. Toyota sure has slipped over the last 15 years in a lot of ways.
From a warranty perspective, Toyota says to use 0W-8. The manual does say 0W-16 may be used, but the following oil change must use 0W-8. Toyota will deny any claim if the owner deviates from that while under warranty.
0w8 is here strictly to satisfy epa / cafe fuel economy regulations . Toyota doesn't make that choice ,,, toyota HAS to abide by those laws here in north america . I wouldn't run anything thinner than 0w20. ideally 5w30 synthetic is what i would run ... epa cafe regulations DO NOT have long term engine life in mind .... especially with the ridiculously long OCI's that toyota is calling for .. I suggest 5w30 changed every 3000 to 5000 miles . your engine will last 500k easily . while burning no oil between changes
Totally agree with you on the EPA mindless decrees, My only question is why would the EPA only required 0w8 in Toyota's smallest engines, which get the best gas mileage to begin with. And why only Toyota, Is the EPA prejudicial. I only went 0w8 so I had some record of it for warrantee purposes. Going 0w16 at 5000. Never 5 weight. FYI on 5w30, GM has gone to 0w20 on their small engines. They found that the variable valve timing solenoids were a big problem, along with timing chain tensioners. I have first hand experience with solenoids getting plugged. Even with faithful 3000 mile oil changes, I went through 3 sets before 70000. Those solenoids need the right oil weight to activate properly. Toyota uses an motorized adjustment but still hydraulic controlled. The right initial weight at start up is huge too, its where most wear occurs. But I still have no solid Idea what to use.
What could go wrong with 10,000-mile oil changes in Las Vegas with 0W-08 oil? lol 5W-30 full synthetic in the summer/ 0W-20 in the winter. Canada. Dealerships will ' only use the required oil as tagged on the vehicle. Needless to say, I always do my oil changes for the past 60 ++ years. Don't trust the lowest lad in the shop doing it right. Did it twice and both times stripped the drain plug end .I was on a long trip both times.
You guys have zero idea about oil. You do realize oil thickness have no relation to engine and bearings fiction reduction and protection, the oil film need to protect the metal to metal is measure in micron. In fact. As long as the oil don’t break down and keep it properties the thinner the better

NAY NAY NAY go and do it yourself right!
I am changing mine soon. Did you buy your 0w-8 at Walmart? because I couldn’t find it in auto parts….

oh wow didn't know walmart is selling 0w 8! Just bought mine online. Thanks

Love that dokken intro
The Genuine Toyota 0W-08 has more Moly than the Mobil 1 0W-08 according to VOAs that I've seen.
what brand of ramps are you using? I have the rhino ramps max and I noticed that it does hit my bumper when I tried it today with my Corolla LE.

Spray the oil filter socket with WD-40 first or any light oil and it won’t stick on there as badly
