Help.


SC300-13

Recommended Posts

I tried to change the oil for my SC300 the first time. As always, I assumed I had to take out the underbody cover to get to the drain plug and oil filter. So I drove the car up the Rhino ramp, and found out it's still barely had enought height for me to slid under the car. Anyway, I found out the cover is all mess up, I think I need to get a new one. Ok...now to my question....where the hack is the drain plug and oil filter?? I could not find them!! Picture will be great help.

Thanks.

The oil pan drain plug isn't under the cover anyways... it protrudes behind it... The plug is facing towards the passanger side fender and closer to the passanger side tire... keep looking and feeling around, look past the cover. You'll find it :D

The oil filter is under the engine bay, look under your intake manifold (drivers side) its sticking out about 1 foot under the manifold. Its a pretty tight squeeze so you need a small oil filter wrench or some really strong hands..

Good luck.

Thanks guys. I did a search before I posted(even tried google to search for 2jz-ge oil change, drain plug, oil filter) and got nothing I was looking for. I found the drain plug and the filter, and just finished the oil change. It's a little too late, so I'll for leak tomorrow morning. If it's not too much trouble, where can i buy the undercover shield thing...I am going to dealer tomorrow to check the price and get the part number.

Thanks.
