3 litre engine filters

[stevesdad]

My son just became owner of an L reg Surf 3 litre diesel.
Lovely vehicle but he got no owner manual or any information about servicing
As I'm going to be tasked with this just wondered whether anyone can give me numbers for oil, fuel and air filters. Are they difficult to obtain as its an import? Only thing I've seen so far is appears to be an oil leak at the back of the engine somewhere as its apparent on the bell housing (its an automatic)
I'm assuming that the oil filter is the one facing upwards on the right hand side of the engine looking from the front. Hopefully we'll get it over the pit this weekend to do a full diagnostic. Thanks in advance for any replies

I ordered mine at about 2 in the afternoon and the courier was delivering them at 08:15 the next day, very quick delivery and I was impressed with their service.

Hel,lo mate,

I believe our 3.0L TD needs 8 liters of oil not 7 as I read. am I right?

Good post dig mate, that truck has probably got the correct amount of oil by now or seized.

I'd recommend proper Toyota filters, a study on a lot of aftermarket filters a while ago found they were very sub standard in some cases.
