what filter do I need to do an oil change on my 2017 Prime? And do I need a new drain plug washer? Thanks
Looks like 04152-YZZA6 for the filter. Definitely needs a new washer, however I'd pick up a new drain plug too.
Repair Manual instruction attached. Seeing how your oil filter is the permanent housing style, it’ll be the “B” case, 18 ft/lb torque.
Yep and you'll want one of the Toyota filter wrenches for that plastic filter casing, they can be difficult to remove. (And be careful removing the old filter inside of it and putting in the new one...it's pretty easy to break those little metal parts inside that....ask me how I know!) FWIW, a new oil drain bolt can be found on Amazon...I keep some on hand for our 9 vehicles when they need it.

Lube the O-rings during reassembly and DO NOT over tighten the drain plug. Common noob mistakes that'll cost you more time and money. Use a torque wrench - old-timers like me have calibrated hands that know, 'ball-park' how much pressure to put on those bolts and filters. Since your green and learning; best not to break things and get discouraged. YMMV
I"m using a Honda oil filter socket (commonly called an "oil filter wrench", is what it is). It's heavy gauge, stamped steel, got it around 1990, more-or-less indestructible. It's compatible with Toyota, Mazda as well as Honda. Dealership parts departments may have it in stock, or can get it in.
Thanks all. It's been decades since I have crawled under a car to do an oil change lol. I bought ramps to change the coolant last week (was an easy job) so I said to myself, instead of paying $100+ for an oil change, having time has I'm retired, might as well put these ramps to use. Changing the oil now means next spring for the next oil change so I won't have to deal with changing oil in the winter! Although it's been years on my CARS, I do the oil changes on my tractors (garden and TLB) and my two ATVs so I'm not 'all that green' lol.
Thanks. Having a 3D Printer, I'll try this first, much cheaper Customizable 14-flute Oil Filter Wrench by Broken3ways - Thingiverse I bought these plugs and washers (5 of them) Hmm, the Amazon link doesn't show :-( But it's like you mentioned above (Dorman 090-038 Oil Drain Plug Standard M12-1.25, Head Size 14Mm Compatible with Select Models, 5 Pack)
