    Drain oil, remove filter, install new filter, add oil.

    Nice engines with a timing chain, not a belt.

    I have 2010 v6, oil changes are super easy as the filter is on the top of motor and right in front. Google 1grfe oil change and you will see a few different videos, mostly for the tacoma, same motor in the 2 gen tacoma! There is also more info on the tacoma.com forum for this motor as it is more common in the tacoma. Let me know if you have any questions.
