Motivx Tools Oil Filter Wrench for Toyota Camry, Tundra, Tacoma, 4Runner, RAV4 and More - 64mm 14 Flute Precision CNC Machined Aluminum Oil Filter Removal Tool
  • COMPATIBLE WITH ALL TOYOTAeBay logo CARTRIDGE STYLE OIL FILTERS - The Motivx Tools 64.3mm 14 flute oil filter wrench is compatible with all ToyotaeBay logo and Lexus cartridge style oil filter caps from 1.8L - 5.7L engines. This includes popular models like Camry, Tundra, Tacoma, 4Runner, RAV4, Corolla, Highlander, Prius and more that use a cartridge style filter where you remove a plastic cap to expose the paper filter element inside.
  • WILL NOT BREAK TABS ON FILTER - This patent pending second generation filter removal tool features a “notch-less” design which securely grips the fluted plastic portion of the oil filter cap without engaging the tabs like older wrench designs. This prevents the tabs from cracking or breaking off which can lead to serious oil leaks.
  • FITS A WIDE RANGE OF FILTERS - Outdated filter wrenches have limited fitment and only work with filters for either 1.8L or 2.5-5.7L engines. The Motivx Tools MX2320-US wrench works with all ToyotaeBay logo cartridge style filters and is compatible with ToyotaeBay logo spin-on style oil filters 90915-YZZF1, 90915-YZZN1, 90915-10009, and 90118-WBA40. Also works with select 14 flute spin-on filters from HondaeBay logo, Bosch, Mobil 1, Purolator and Hiflofiltero.
  • MADE IN USA - This oil filter wrench is proudly made in the USA. It is precision CNC machined from solid aluminum for a perfect fit and includes a manufacturer's lifetime warranty. The main body of the wrench is made from 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized grey while the drive hub is made from 7075-T6 aircraft aluminum for ultimate strength and anodized red for better visibility.
  • DUAL DRIVE - This wrench can be operated with a 3/8” drive ratchet or extension, or a 24mm socket.
