kurtk Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hello All. I know the size that's called for in the Pure One filter is the pl20145,but it seems so small? Read some where the Pl 20195 will work too and is larger which I seem to believe is better... Anyone fitted the the larger one ? Any comments? Thanx ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRK Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Bigger is not better. The factory filter is best and when bought in a package of ten, they cost less than $5.00 each Canadian money. Best deal there is for these engines. Why mess with some "imitation" filter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djspawn00 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I use the OEM filter on my GS3 since I have 3 vehicles that all use the same filter... however I do know of certain well known users on other forums that do use the larger filters (longer) just because it increases oil capacity slightly.

Rager Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 In tests, the Toyota filter scores as avarage. There are several aftermarket filter that are better, such as MAHLE OC235 (european filter, possibly hard to find at your side of the ocean), that has a larger filter area, though the outer size of the filter can is the same as the Toyota filter. I know that some US brands also scores better than the OEM. /Råger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx ;) HI there, I have been using the NAPA 1515 which is considerably larger than the factory filter, same flow rate confirmed by NAPA tech person behind the counter. I use royal purple and the NAPA gold 1515. You may want to do your own research on this to see if this set up will work for you!
