Guessing you're asking about the V-6 engine the filter is tucked under the exhaust manifold at the 'front' (as you look at it standing in front of the car) of the engine. When changing oil it's helpful if the engine is cold (that exhaust manifold can cause serious burns). The filter is just about in the center. Some oil will be lost down the side of the engine and will puddle in the splash shield. You'll want to have a spray can of degreaser on hand to use as part of each oil change just to clean things up. Cheers
STP's part number is S3614. This oil filter fits a 2006 Toyota Solara (6 cyl) and other similar years of Toyota.
See answers already posted to "How do you change oil on a 2004 Toyota Solara," "How do you change oil on a 2006 Toyota Solara," "How do you change oil on a 2007 Solara." They're the same as the '08. The short answer is, oil changes are the same on almost all vehicles. 1. Place a suitable container (5 quarts or more for the Solara) under the car. 2. Remove the drain plug and let the oil empty into it. 3. Replace the drain plug and move the container until it's under the filter 4. Spin the filter off (in the case of the Solara it's wise to place rags or paper towels under the filter to prevent a mess on the floor) 5. Replace filter 6. Add five quarts of oil 7. Start engine, check for leaks 8. Reset maintenance light. Cheers
On a 4 cylinder, 2007 Toyota Solara. it is on the right side of the engine, just to the left of the frame. It is underneath the air conditioner pump.
You don't. The oil will flow out when you remove the filer. Just have the catch pan ready to collect the oil.
For a 1999 Solara v6, the oil capacity is 5 qts. of 5W30.
You need 5W-30. The oil viscosity recommendation should be marked on your oil cap and in the owner's manual. Cheers
