Toyota Yaris Oil Change (2006-2018) 

That's the same oil filter removal tool i got & well worth getting,i have a chain tool too for those tight areas. Always have 2 or 3 types if doing a few cars for the family as i do. *TOP TIP* - Pour in some new clean oil into the engine so it'll drip out any old oil sitting on the bottom of the pan 😊

Thank you! The captions were helpful and funny as well

Ramps are the way to go. Much easier than searching for safe place to put jack stands

Toyota recommends 3.6qts in engine and .3 in filter dawg🤙🏿

Used caravan ramps to do neighbours car - used liquid moly flush - superb 👌 Took about thirty minutes all in

Quick note: If your Yaris doesn't say 5w-30 on the oil cap, you should follow this instruction: If the oil will be in the engine during winter and you live in a place where it gets cold during these months, use 5w30 oil. If it will only be in the engine during the summer, use 10w30. 10w30 is also used in hot climates, in middle east, they don't bother with 5w30, rather, all mechanics go for 10w30. Also if you have a lot of engine wear, typically above 200.000 miles, using 10w30 is much better.

Thank you for this video it helped a lot! I actually switched to a tough guard oil filter as I previously used the toyota filters but they were too hard to remove!

The video only shows on Yaris 2006, a very old model. Its title was a totally mistake to say it covers till Yaris 2018 which was a mistake, or perhaps to lure people to watch this video. The oil filter location was not the same on newer different year model.

... i am LEARNED today... Thankyou Chief..... !!!!

Thanks for the video and drain plug torque spec!

Great video! One thing my dad always said about tightening drain plugs is to make them "snug" =]

Thank you! Finally same car as mine. Hope you'll post more videos. Thank you again

7:31... and that my friends is why he couldn’t get the filter off the first time... over tightened and no oil on filter gasket..👍🏼

Yaris is the best compact car ever made 40MPG Thrifty and fun to drive

Clear and concise, exactly what a beginner DIYer needs. Thank you! Just curious, where can I take the used oil once I've changed the oil? What kind of canister can I put it in for transport? Thanks again.

Thank you. I might change the oil on my neighbor's Yaris so she doesn't get scammed on the oil change place synthetic oil change prices and I wanted to see how easy it is to get at the drain plug and filter. It looks like they are way easier to get at than my Mom's Corolla with the drain plug on the back of the pan and the oil filter on the back of the engine . I like to fill the new oil filter with oil if it is a vertical one like the Yaris has and also put a thin film of new oil on the oil filter gasket mating surface so it will tighten up smoothly, Generally you tighten then until the gasket makes contact with the engine, then another 3/4's of a turn. The filter box is often specific on this or maybe the info is on the filter itself. Oh yeah, I like to clean around the oil plug hole before putting the plug back in.

Great Video! Thank you for posting it.

I have the same car and I hate the location of that filter, I can barely get a hand or tool on it. Nice video

Hi bru, i am Using a rope to disengage those tight Oil Filters, just not fortunate for others that using some tools made for oil filter won't work because not enough room.

Excellent video, thank you so much , and god bless you. Thank you

I never changed oil in my Yaris, just looked at this video to make sure I would be draining the oil, not something like transmission fluid. Everything went fine...

I don't jack up my yaris. I just slide a plastic drain pan under it and reach under it and use my 14mm box end wrench to take out the drain bolt. Then I reach under the front of the engine and twist off the filter with my hand. If you need a tool to remove the filter then it was overtightened. It should only be hand tight. The procedure in this video looks way too complex.

I would just use the OEM filter. It’s way better and cheaper. It’s like $4 at the dealership. I used to jot buy them because I thought theyd be expensive but nope.

nice clean job canada

This video is old obviously but, anyone who finds it, I found that autozone carries Toyota oem oil filters and denso air filters as well, cheaper than going to the dealer, it’s $7.99 here for the black Toyota oil filter in Illinois, I will never use aftermarket oil filters ever again. Most of the companies don’t plastic air seal their oil filters and they just put them in a box, then they sit on a shelf for who knows how long, the Toyota ones are air sealed and plastic wrapped in the box, and are designed for the car. Go oem! Glad my 09 yaris is from Japan , the Japanese know what they’re doing. Also use the oem denso alternators , got a new manufactured denso alternator made in Japan recently, thing will go another 11 years like the last one did.

Great video thank a lot, however, would you recommend pre filling the filter? I’ve been told you should and been told it doesn’t matter.

Use a K&N oil filter. Easy to get off with 1 inch nut at the end of the filter.

a set of large channel lock pliers would help

You showed us where transition drain plug is . Thsts what I was looking for . 😀

So would it be the same steps for a 2017 Toyota Yaris iA!!??

Easy to follow. Thanks

Does not work for a 2017 Yaris IA. Just found this out the hard way lol

I dont always use jackstands but when i do....i perfer to use two 🍺

Thanks bro

When does an oil change need a parallel engine wash if i may ask?

Looks like somebody over tighten the old Filter.

Good video

👍 you help me!!

Is the 2 door model the same ?

A standard length socket should be use there not a deep socket.

This car is high enough easy oil change. Just crack drain bolt slide a pan underneath. I do this all the time right at autozone buy the oil and then less than half hour I take the used oil back in and I’m gone!

My yaris1.3 has done 170000 km should i use a thicker oil say 20/50

I own a Yarris and that oil filter was ridiculously overtight!!

Look like u don't need to jack the car

Done all wrong if using jack should been on the other side

don't jack the car up where he did
