I tried that, doesnt work for me with these new oils. Our 05 Rav4 only lasted 67K with genuine toyota motor oil OR Mobil clean 5000 and toyota filters exclusively. Cams shot, piston skirts collapsed. Previous Suzuki Aerio, 45K and all done, burning 1qt /900mi; previous mitsubishi 3.0L V6, 55K and all done, piston slap, low power, burning oil. Alll using best factory filters and premium mineral oil.
Thats why I changed my tune. And my Oil. My yaris was going down the tubes and the Motul and wix filter saved it.
