I bought this OEM part as I just bought a used Lexus RX 350. When I do my first oil change, it’ll be good to have a new oil filter housing in case the last person doing an oil change over torqued the filter on. This happened to me once before (cracked the housing getting it off), so I learned to have a new one on hand.

This oil filter housing cap is an OEM replacement for the original. Have read several negative reviews about after market caps. It's very important you follow recommended torques when installing the cap and drain plug. Do not over tighten; all threaded parts are aluminum. If you are concerned about male threads cutting the big o-ring when installing it on the cap, wrap painters tape over the male threads, install o-ring. Then remove the tape. Coat both o-rings and male threads of the cap and drain plug with motor oil before installing the cap and plug.

Bought it because the plastic housing looks so fragile and heard the cracking noise when my mechanics was trying to unscrew it. I go ahead to order this steel housing intend to replace the plastic housing in next oil change.

Great product, just make sure to switch out the middle tube from the older, plastic filter...yes, it's a little bit of an issue to get it moved over, btw.

It replaced the plastic housing I had and it fit perfectly, went on easily, and is a Toyota O.E.M. part. I'm very happy.
