Doing first oil change and having difficulties

[McKay]

Im currently doing my first change on a 2026 Hybrid TRD offroad premium. Ive run into a baffling situation, the oil filters are different Sizes, both in length and diameter. I bought my new filters from the dealer and they are PN 90915-YZZD1 yet I pulled a 90915-10009. A search on the net tells me they are equivalent filters with notes about the replacement being longer but nothing about them being different diameters. It is longer but also a half inch larger in diameter and will not fit the car. It runs into the scupper drain and the scupper is already extremely close to the line as is. Headed back to dealer in the morning but curious if Im the only one here seeing this.

Here's the one I use: https://autoparts.klamathfallstoyota.com/products/product/filter-s-a-oil-90915yzzn1

The site says this is an exact fit for my 4Runner

Maybe the N1 is important here…

also if you do a lookup they dont cross ref each other when using a 3rd party filter

90915-YZZN1 is the part number you need. Just did an oil change on my wife’s Sienna with the 2.4l and that’s the oil filter Toyota gave me. The prefix D1 works on older 2.7L and 3.3L

You want the N1

Thank you, one assumes the dealer gives us the correct filter but after surfing and seeing the two are interchangeable, made me second guess.

just one more example of why we cannot trust dealer's at face value - parts, service or sales. The average poster here seems to know more about our 25/26 vehicles than the service advisors who haven't yet had time to learn the quirks. One would expect the parts folks, being dependent on computers, to know better but you said "4Runner" and the parts geek already "knows" the part for that car... so didn't bother recognizing the need to check changes for model year.
Which reminds me ... I need to check my oil level since I just had the last "free" oil change done and I haven't found the mistake yet - but there is ALWAYS some mistake. (Correction, I know they did not torque the propeller shaft bolts as service requires - so maybe error found for this visit.)
BTW - when doing parts searches on-line, its always best to cross-check multiple sites to verify you did not get an AI answer for the wrong model year. I know this is not what happened to OP but I've erred by being in a rush and not cross-checking.
Sorry. Rant over.

Think they know more. . Not saying dealers are great but reading a lot of threads I also question a lot those who seem to think they know more too. Especially when they quote one YouTube "expert" as the source of all the facts.
