How to change the oil on your Toyota Auris Hybrid on your driveway 

Great video and the little one shouting for his daddy was priceless 🙏

Thanks a lot. Gonna do this in the misses 2013 now, brilliant car. Also followed your ledperf purchase for amazing results.

So I'm watching your video and thinking, this is great, finally someone is showing how to do this, and what oil filter wrench is best. Then you pan up and I see my car across the road!!! 🤣 😂

Thank you for helping us ! One minor thing: if you put gear control on the " H " position, engine will be freed from ECU drive control, and you can start engine for an undefined amount of time. NIce job !!!

Great overview. Thanks. But I wonder why the dipstick and the filler lid wasn't loosened before emptying out the oil. Also jacking it up on an angle that helps the oil not completely empty out of the bottom tray.

Good video, but a few minor points. That universal oil filter wrench is for removing spin on filters, there is a specific Toyota/Lexus oil filter tool for these, it's a cup wrench. That plastic pipe thing that comes with the new filter is for the models that have a metal canister oil filter with a bolt in the bottom, the plastic thing punches into the old filter and allows the filter to drain out before you fully remove it. Also don't put the filter element on the gravelly ground!

Fantastic, I did it easily and I saved a lot of money !

Really helpful - thanks !!

Good video thanks for the information

Just for suggestion, you can get original Toyota oil 0w20 or better Mobil 1 0w-20 ESPX2 that also supply Toyota oil

Nice job! How about a brakes job? I have to change front & rear rotors and pads and could use some tips. Ordered TRW parts and a L/R hand piston press, since I understand the rotation direction differs in the rear calipers. Now the rotors are unevenly worn out (inside less contact with pads, much rust) and a grinding noise is there. The rear pads seem to be sticking. Have to do a thorough cleaning and greasing of the sliding bolts. Just bought the car (TS 2014) at 82.500 km and want to offer it a chance to start a new life with us 😊. Changed oil with Toyota 0w20 AFE, filters, and purchased new spark plugs. (Denso SC20HR11 are no longer available, found a Toyota note in the Denso catalogue saying they've been replaced by SC16HR11 since 2017 so I got these). Only need an articulated thin wall 14mm spark plug socket. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Did you ever took that retaining clip on the oil filter housing (or whatever it is) out before unscrewing the cap? I will do my second oil change myself on this car some of these days and I'm wondering... I didn't remove it the previous oil change, but I see some do.

Tank you 💞

Perfect, thanks

Thank you for this video mate! Shouldn´t the car be perfectly horizontal when the oil is drained? Shouldn´t you take it off the jack before draining?

Hello! How do you reset the sevice light on this type of car?

Very good

Well.. the wrench is well lubricated now

hello, it's the same for Auris Mk2 (2015 and up) ? where did you put the little ring ? under the filter ? Thanks

Hi, why do you jack up the car to drain the oil better?

Blue print is a good filter

Do you ever clean the battery fan filter? From the research I have looked at it’s essential but doesn’t seem to be covered in Toyota servicing 🤷‍♂️

Hi pal, random question. When you press the brake pedal do you feel any vibration at all? Mine vibrates a little bit like abs would in a normal car. I put it down to it being the engine braking of the hybrid, but now I’m starting to doubt it, I’ve only had it a week.

Hi, did you warm the engine before dropping the oil out?

You pick up dirt and sands on the filter and filter housing? You should not put it on the ground

Is that paper oil filter the same as a 2016 Hybrid Estate model with panroof ?

Did you ever work out what that small white plastic thing you threw away was actually for?

Put the aircon to max and the engine should start

New Corolla used full filter wuth metal can, no more messy, BS cartridge

I look at this and work at cars every day its not rocket science at end of the day

1. who jacks a car up by a suspension component, how is this safe...it can easily slide as it is a suspension component which is made to move... 2. where is the old oil drain plug washer gone ? i see something stuck to the sump but , this car comes with a so called toyota blue washer ... 3. you are not using the correct wrench for that plastic housing probably twisting it every time, this will cause material fatigue and warping and will some day become impossible to untwist...

Hi! When would you say it is fine to do the service yourself? I mean you loose the note in the servicebook when doing it yourself. My Auris is 2018 and have just shy under 12000 mil (swedish) Can i do it and miss out on the servicenotes you think? ///Fredde @freddes garage
