I guess Rock Auto is a local/regional store. Haven't ever heard of them. NO...I like to get input from people whose posts make sense and seem to have a logic to them. Now don't go applying for a job at Toyota as a Yaris mechanical engineer based on my comments! But you appear to have your stuff together from what I read online.

is it ok to use " COMPRESS AIR" to flush out the old oil?
how about those "engine oil flush" additives, any effect on the engine?
going to hit 5,000 miles soon.
thanks

Would not use either. Just run the car say to the store or whatever to warm the oil. Drain, do the filter and refill.
