Hi, I've changed it on our Hilux. I just filled the new filter with clean fuel and swapped them over.

It started first turn of the key so I left it running to purge any air. Quite easy really but it is easy to get to on the Hilux.

Not looked at the location of the filter in the Avensis yet, only had it a week.

Good luck
