oil change TC

I'm feeling like I need to be frugal lately since I'm a student and I don't have a job anymore that I want to start to change my own oil on my 07 TC so here are the questions?

What brand of oil fiter do you use?

How many quarts of oil do you use?

what size wrench do you use?

use genuine toyota oil filters, you can buy them from www.trdsparks.com

you need 4.5 quarts of oil.

14mm wrench, oem filter, about 4 quarts. you'll also need to get something to take the filter off, cause that's not a bare hand job.

I use WIX oil filters. I don't have a wrench, I use my hands [a nice firm grip] to remove the filter.
