Motor Oil filter size for IS 250

Asked by xp18002003 Nov 16, 2019 at 01:29 PM about the 2011 Lexus IS 250 Sedan RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2011 Lexus IS 250 RWD.  I am looking for the right motor oil filter to install.  On the websites they always list filters with 2 heights.  The height is either 2.6" or 3.2".  I bought 2 different ones and the heights are different.
Toyota 04152-YZZA3 is 2.6" high
Wix 57173 is 3.2" high
Both are suppose to work with a 2011 IS 250.

I'd compare the old filter to the new ones that you have. Whichever one is a match, go with that one from now on. Write yourself a note in the owner's manual or other good place so you'll remember which filter you have. Hope that helps! Jim

If the taller one fits I would use it as it has a little more filtration capacity.
