Toyota Prius Oil Filter

As engine oil circulates around the engine, lubricating various components, it gets contaminated with debris and metal shavings. This is where the oil filter comes in, filtering the oil before it circulates back into the engine. This continuous loop is what enables your engine to run smoothly and safely. Just like engine oil, oil filters need to be replaced since they don't last forever. If you're looking for Toyota Prius oil filters to choose from, AutoZone has you covered.

Before you can change out the old oil filter and replace it with a brand new one, you'll need to drain the engine oil out by removing the drain plug. Since the engine oil and the oil filter are connected to the same loop, you can't simply remove the oil filter without aking a huge mess if there's oil still present inside the engine.
