How To Change Oil 2012-2018 Toyota Rav4 | Easy DIY Oil Change

In this video I change the oil in a 2017 Toyota Rav4 with the 2.5L engine. This applies to any Toyota Rav4 from the 2012-2018 model years. The car takes 5qts of 0W-20 and a paper filter. I also show how to reset the “scheduled maintenance” indicator on the dash when complete.

Just completed the oil change in less than 1/2 hr following your recommendations. Perfect . What impressed me on the oil fiter housing is the ratchet typ mechanism that prevents the Filter housing from unscrewing . Good Job MattDIY

Great video. Explaining while showing is great. You didn't explain to fast and did at a lot of unnecessary talking in between. Awesome!!

Thanks for shutting off the annoying indicator! I needed that.

YouTube is so invaluable thanks to creators such as yourself showing new things that conventional media or resources just don’t cover :)

Last month I got a 2014 XLE Rav4 from a Toyota dealer for my wife. This was a awesome video, thank you so much, I will get the oil wrench from Amazon.
Lesson learned

[peterharris]

Thanks sir! Always appreciate watching a video that's to the point and reassures me that there aren't any unforeseen gotchas for me to discover the hard way after starting the job. 😁

I have an 011 venza.
Exact same filter.
I can do an oil change in 15 minutes.
Dont even need the filter tool.
Just use a 3/8 extension, and out it comes.
Buy the filter at any auto supply store.
Once you do it, its real easy.
Save a lot of $.
Dealers charge a small fortune these days.
I use 5/20 oil though.
A higher mileage car.
Good luck.

Does the new paper filter have a indicator of which end goes up or down in the cartridge holder?

[rossp]

Good video, thank you so much for making it. I will change my oil and see how I go.

Now I can change my wife’s rav4 oil. Thanks brother

Dude thank you this video is so clear and concise! Gonna try it out

[jeffgeyer]

Hey, good job. Peppy pace on the video and thorough job all the way thru. I would have wrestled the filter drain off and buttoned that up, but I’m a little ocd that way. Great work!!

How often would you need to worry about changing the smaller O ring?

[jamesabernathy]

Really good job Matt, I wish You would do a review on a oil change for a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica. One moron actually poured clean oils(synthetic, which is expensive anyway. What a waste) through his system to get out all of the old oil.

[hongtaoyang]

It's very helpful! Thanks very much!

[michaeljjon]

Thank you! Great video. How often should I be changing my oil when it’s full synthetic?
