Also, how many quarts of oil does this take so i know how much to actually buy without wasteing money? All help appreciated thanks.
The filter is just regular oil filter, oil filter is located front of the car (passenger side) to the left of the oil pan. I would use a quality synthetic oil with genuine Toyota oil filter. Syn oil helps with the fuel efficiency of the camry.

Torque for the drain plug: 18 ft lb



Capacity:
Drain and refill w/ Oil filter change 3.8 liters (4.0 US qts, 3.3 lmp. qts)
Drain and refill w/o Oil filter change 3.6 liters (3.8 US qts, 3.2 lmp. qts)
