hello everyone,

I'm planning to change my engine oil.

My vehicle is 2010 rav4 2.4L

I just have a simple question. when i install my oil filter back, how tight should I turn it on?

This is my first time change engine oil myself, are there something I have to be careful?

Welcome Louis! First thing, if you are in Canada and have a 2010 RAV4, you have the 2.5L engine. The 2.4L engine was only used on the RAV4 from 2005-2008 and had the old style filter. Look at this thread, although it shows the 3.5L V6, the procedure is the same:

And this thread is for your 2.5L with diagrams instead of photos:
