I have a new canister type filter that you only replace the filter material inside. I had the first oil change done at an oil change place. I tried to remove the filter using using the cannister filter wrench that grips it on the outside, using a scoket filter remover, that slipped. is there a screct to removing the filter container on a Camry. Thanks
