Ok long time gone by but update as to what was happening with the oil light. It seems that there are about 2 or 3 toyota models that have a higher then usual amount of gas in the oil and so on those models of cars if you leave a fliter on for longer then like 7/8 thousand miles the gas will rot and clog the oil filter. AMSOIL figured this out and are now refunding me what I had to pay the dealer ship since they feel it is there fault for not noticing this issue sooner. While it took a while AMSOIL stood up to what it said and made sure that one way or another we would get are money back. So now I just change filter about every 5,000 or so miles

Kudos to Amsoil for sticking by you-this must be why their website is only recommending their filters for oem intervals. If so we are talking SCARY levels of fuel dilution here folks!
