It's dead simple.

6L of 5w30 synthetic, a 65mm filter socket (for example, I bought this one http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Toyota-Oil-Filter-Wrench-Socket-Tool-65mm-14-flute-New-/170528959152 ), and lastly a filter for the 2gr-fe.

As usual, jack up the front end onto car stands, or if you're lucky use car ramps or a hoist. Dump the sump, empty the filter housing otherwise it's a wee bit messy. Old filter out, give the housing a wipe & check for anything out of the ordinary, new filter & o-ring in, reattach, oil in to necessary level, happy times.

Ok, thanks. Any recommendations on an oil filter? Also, how do I dispose of the old oil?

Thanks again for the reply.

Cheers.

Last change I just chucked in a Ryco filter from SuperCrap, any filter that fits the part number 04152‑31090 will do. Next change I'm going to bulk-buy some of the TRD variant filters (PN PTR43-00082) from the US, because 1. TRD in my TRD, why the heck not! and 2. Even a single one from the US with shipping is still heaps cheaper than the ripoff of Ryco over here.

Shame you're not in Perth and close to me, as I'd happily take the oil. Just google up "Victoria engine oil disposal" and have a look through some of the results, looks like there's a broad range of options for you.

Bugster, I'm in Perth and have about 60 5 litre oil containers full of my used motor oil.

Please help me!

Take it to a truck service centre

And see if they will dispose of it .

You may have to pay a small environmental levy ...
