I HAVE A 2016 TOYOTA VENZAN WITH A 3.5 L 6 CYLINDER. WHAT BLOCK HEATER DO I NEED AND IS THERE A VIDEO ON IT?

Expert Reply:

Toyota discontinued the Venza in 2015 so your car would have to be a 2015, not a 2016. Kat's does not show a confirmed fit for a block style engine heater for the 3.5L, but you can use their dipstick style heater # KH15200 which is the easiest possible option for any vehicle with an oil dipstick tube of 1/4-inch diameter or larger. This works in any such engine that allows for at least 5-inches of the heating element to be immersed in the oil.

The best part of using this type of heater is that you need to do no modifications to the vehicle, simply insert the oil heater in the dipstick tube.
