What oil filter does a 2020 Toyota Corolla use?

The 2020 Corolla uses a conventional spin-on oil filter for its 1.8-liter engine, and in many markets the Toyota Genuine Part number 04152-YZZA1 is commonly cited for North American cars. Always verify the exact part using your VIN or by asking a dealer, since regional variants exist.


The oil filter on the 2020 Corolla is a replaceable spin-on canister that threads onto the engine and seals with a gasket. While 04152-YZZA1 is a common designation in the U.S., other markets may list different numbers for the same engine family. Always confirm the correct filter to prevent mismatches and leaks.


Engine basics and filter compatibility


Understanding which filter applies requires knowing the engine code and market. Most 2020 Corolla models sold in the United States use the 1.8-liter 2ZR-FAE engine, though regional variations can exist. The essential point is that the oil filter is a standard spin-on type, not a cartridge system.



  • Verify the part number on your current filter or in your vehicle’s service documentation.

  • Use your VIN to look up the correct oil filter in Toyota’s parts database or through a dealer portal.

  • When shopping aftermarket filters, ensure the filter is rated for the 1.8L 2ZR-FAE engine with the correct thread size and gasket diameter.

  • Follow Toyota’s recommended change intervals and torque specifications when installing a new filter.


Following these steps helps ensure you select the right filter and maintain proper engine lubrication.


Tips for replacement and cross-compatibility


Many reputable brands offer oil filters that are compatible with the 1.8L Corolla engine. If you’re replacing with an aftermarket part, confirm compatibility with the exact engine code (for example, 2ZR-FAE) and the filter’s thread size, gasket diameter, and overall length. Always install a new gasket seal and avoid overtightening to prevent leaks.

The commonly cited OEM part for North American models is 04152-YZZA1, but you should verify the correct part for your vehicle using your VIN or by consulting a dealer, as regional differences may apply.
