The official part number request thread (1 Viewer)

I’m going back to the plastic oil filter housing. I’ve had too many instances of stuck drain bolts with the aluminum. I see part number 15650-38010 for the ‘17 LC for the full cap assembly w/filter, but I’d like to confirm that.

That is the correct number, though it will get superceded to another in Toyota's system.

Is it sticking due to corrosion? Using a torque wrench to spec?

I've done almost 25 oil changes on mine without issue. Makes me wonder if it's an inherent design issue or environmental.

It’s probably corrosion. I’m good about torque, especially with parts that may have aluminum.

I’ve had to replace every single one of the bolts that hold undercover A, undercover B, and the plastic undercover over the years due to corrosion and the fact the bolts go well past the nuts. The threads corroded past use ability. All are stainless steel now. I keep my truck in good shape from rust otherwise, with annual complete treatments. But both aluminum and many types of fasteners just don’t last in my neck of the woods. I bet that drain cap got sticky.
