Which engine? There are 3 different engine sizes and yes they have different filters. I highly suggest that if you have a 5.7L engine you let the dealer do it. ( talk to a service manager first before you try it, you will be shocked to find out what you have to go through to change that oil filter.) Also the transmission is the same way ( don't try to service it your self, add tranny oil) on the 5.7 engine there is NO tranny dip stick. It's designed to go 100,000 before servicing.

I own a 2008 5.7 L Tundra I know!

I also have a 2008 Tundra with the 5.7L iforce motor. Toyota dealer in Va. said you can buy the oil filter wrench from Snapon. Don't know how much it is haven't bought one yet. Also the engine id label plate that has your engine info will have the letters you'll need to match the right wrench with your motor. Not sure if yours is the same as but mine has 3URFE on the label plate. And if that is the case then the part number for Snapon is 09228-06501. Hope that helps.

If you elect to do the oil change yourself. You have to drop the skidplate first. Then remove the 4 screws that hold in the oil filter. It's not a oil can but a paper filter. You will need the tool here. If you get it in wrong it will leak. The oil is not 30 weight but Toyota 0 weight. That's right ZERO weight.

Now you know why I let Toyota do it.
