i would say that the fitting for the oil filter is expanding with the heat... but i have never had problems with changing the oil filter on my 05 and i always change it when the oil is hot.

are you using oem toyota filters or an aftermarket brand?

First I heard of a problem like that, as most of us change when oil is warm/hot.

Right, what oil filter are you using? Maybe try Purolator PureOne or Bosch.
