What are people's thoughts on oil filters, do people have a particular brand they use? I always change my own oil, but I am keen to hear if other prado owners have a particular favourite?

I only use genuine filters. I buy them as cheap as I can on Ebay.

Im running petrol but I use genuine and always have for every vehicle Ive had including the previous prado which was diesel. At least if any thing goes wrong I know Ive used the recommended parts...Cheers SteveFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yetComment

Get some of these whilst you can, seem very reasonably priced (if your changing every 5K).

Alternativley for the 1KZ-TE fleetguard and Donaldson will suffice.

With the experiences I have had with Toyota warranty, including part(s), I often avoid genuine.
I have had good service from Repco, so I deal with them. A few choices of filter brands.
I choose ryco! ryco warranty guaranteed, like it says on the box! They are as good or better than genuine, that's their guarantee & they will look after you. For my customers, I need to be backed up by suppliers to provide good service in the rare chance of a problem with parts.
I notice many other service centres use some cheap filters & don't see evidence of problems with those, but I rather stay with BIG Well known names I can trust to back me up. RYCO.Comment

We had a customer come into the workshop (years ago when I worked for toyota) with issues with oil pressure. It did have regular services (not by toyota) after a long time doing tests etc we found the filter to be faulty. I know it could happen to any filter but just turned me off them. Any way I pay cost price for genuine so untill I cant then I will continue to use genuine lol.....Cheers SteveFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yetComment
