oil filter

The RX330 is the mechanical twin of the Toyota Highlander, and it's located in the same stupid place as my RX300, it's right behind the exhaust manifold right in the "front" of the engine. Open the hood, look straight down to behind the manifold (in front of radiator) and boom, you'll see the brown Toyota filter.
As for the plug, look under the car, under the engine, and there is only one plug on the engine pan, and that's the plug. The other plug further to the driver's side is the transmission plug.
If you still can't find it, then go to your dealer and have them do it.
Good luck.

Keep in mind the 3MZ-FE found in the RX330/Highlander originated from it's platform, the Camry/ES300/Solara counterparts for both 3MZ-FE 3.3L and 1MZ-FE 3.0L.

You seem like a knowledgeable person on the RX300. My wife has a 2000 RX300. Does the intake manifold REALLY have to be removed to change sparkplugs? Her car has about 47,000 miles on it and it just doesn't seem wise to wait until 100,00 miles to remove and/or change plugs. I'm an ex-GM Technician who has seen many problems with sparkplugs left in aluminum heads for for too many years. What is your view on this?
