FAQ Q&A

Q: Where is this oil control valve filter located on the Tacoma 4.0L engine?

A: These filters are located behind the threaded plugs on the cylinder heads, near the VVT-i solenoids. They are critical for filtering oil before it reaches the control valves.

Q: Will this filter solve my 'Check Engine' light for VVT timing issues?

A: If your light is caused by a clogged or dirty mesh filter restricting oil flow to the VVT solenoid, replacing this part with OE 15678-31010 often resolves the issue.

Q: How many of these filters does a Toyota FJ Cruiser need?

A: The 4.0L V6 engine typically requires two filters—one for the left cylinder head and one for the right. It is highly recommended to replace both at the same time.
