Try This. Set up Toyota/Lexus for easy oil change.

I sometimes hate how car manufacturers designed their vehicles and make them hard for regular folks to do simple car maintenance. For example, Like the oil filter set up. I know getting rid of the metal housing on oil filters would save tons of metal and cut down on cost. All they need to do is to design the oil case housing we can use our simple ratchet wrench to remove it. Nope, their goal is to make it hard as possible so you need to take the vehicles to the dealerships to get it done there. The dealership can make money. That make perfect since as a company. It just difficult for us DIY'ers. Well, I have figured out how to remove the stupid oil housing casing with just ratchet wrench. watch the video.

    Not sure this is a good idea. The torque spec for that plug is provided for a reason

    I never torque it. I have done so many oil changes. I could feel the tightness from using my hand and wrist. It's kinda like my own hand is torque wrench. 😆 I never have any issues. It is like metal oil filters. You tighten with wrist. Here you got an O-ring on the oil filter casing holder. It will actually stop spinning once you tighten enough. There is no need to tighten more.
