Hi everyone. I'm new to the forum. A friend of mine has a 99 RX300 that I'd like to change the oil for him and the rear brake pads. But before I do that, I have some questions for the experts here.
-Is a new oil drain plug gasket required with every oil change?
-What are the torque specs for the drain plug?
-What brand of filter and oil is best?
Rear brake pads:
-Do I need a special tool to compress the brake piston?
-What brand and type of pads is best?
Thanks in advance for any input.
