I can't find the oil filter on a 2009 Toyota Camry V6 engine. Apparently they no longer us the twist on type.
Under the engine in the front you will see an aluminum cover.There is a square hole that fits a 3/8 ratchet remove this first.The new filter comes with a drain adapter that snaps in the hole under the cover.This lets the oil in the housing drain.Then take a oil filter cup wrench or a big channel lock to twist of the larger portion.Then change the filter and o-ring and reinstall.Make sure the o-ring on the square drive cover is there also
In a new car they are usualy on the top in a black cylinder with a twist off top then they pull right out.

Thank you for the assistance. I picture would be great.
Not sure how I give my e-mail address without it being posted for everyone.
Need your e-mail address for the picture
The oil filter is a "cartridge-type" filter. It is under the engine, in a cylindrical metal housing. The housing is removed, and the cartridge is then removed. Please respond if you want a picture.
