2013 tC.
I will be replacing with toyota filter. Is it exactly 5q. Or 4.8, or what.
Thank You for any confirmation.

My 2014 takes 4.5-4.6L just drop 4.5 quarts in there and top it up as required, pretty easy. The manual should tell you as well.

Nice. What motor swap did you do? That's a giant motor. I'd like to see the build thread on that.

4.5 liters = 4.75 quarts. Not that much more.
