Toyota Yaris 1.5 Hybrid (1NZ-FXE, 2020): Engine Oil and Oil Filter Change
The 1NZ-FXE hybrid engine requires 0W-20 synthetic oil and a change every 10,000 km. The procedure is standard for the TNGA-B platform, using a cartridge-type filter accessed from below.

- 🔩 Oil filter cartridge 04152-YZZA6 (aftermarket equivalents Mann HU 7008 z, Bosch F 026 407 096), Toyota 0W-20 engine oil API SN or higher (ILSAC GF-5/GF-6), drain plug gasket 90430-12031 (single use)

Step by step
13 steps- Warm the engine to operating temperature, then turn off the ignition and let it cool for 5 minutes.
- Raise the front of the vehicle on a lift or set it on ramps, and secure it with the parking brake.
- Remove the engine undercover if installed (usually 4-6 clips or bolts).
- Place the drain pan under the drain plug in the oil pan (on the right side or in the center, depending on trim).
- Loosen the drain plug with a 14 mm wrench by turning it counterclockwise, and let the oil drain completely (3-4 minutes).
- Install a new copper gasket on the drain plug, thread it in by hand until snug, then tighten with a torque wrench to 25-30 N·m (18-22 lb-ft).
- Place the drain pan under the oil filter housing (on the left at the front of the engine, vertical plastic cap).
- Unscrew the filter cap with the cap wrench by turning it counterclockwise, then remove the old cartridge and the sealing rings.
- Wipe the seating surfaces of the cap and housing with a dry rag, install the new sealing rings (supplied with the filter), and lubricate them with a drop of fresh oil.
- Insert the new cartridge into the housing, thread the cap in by hand until it makes contact, then tighten an additional quarter turn (18-20 N·m (13-15 lb-ft) if using a torque wrench; do not overtighten, as the housing is plastic).
- Pour 3.6 L (3.8 qt) of fresh 0W-20 oil in through the oil filler neck.
- Start the engine and let it idle for 1 minute, shut it off, wait 3 minutes, and check the level with the dipstick. It should be between the MIN and MAX marks.
- Top off the oil if necessary (usually another 0.1-0.2 L (0.1-0.2 qt) is needed), then reinstall the engine undercover.
Common mistakes and warnings
- For Toyota hybrid vehicles, it is critical to use 0W-20 specification oil. Thicker oil reduces the efficiency of the start-stop system and increases fuel consumption. Dispose of used oil at a designated collection facility.
