no oil in the oil filter
there is no oil in the oil filter and it only has 2 quarts of oil in the motor.would low amounts of oil cause no oil to get to the filter.

When you change your oil, you're supposed to do it on a hot engine, for maximum drainage. Hot oil drains faster and more thorougly than cold oil.
I use genuine Toyota filters, as they cost the same as everything else out there.
Losing up to a quart per 1000 miles is considered acceptable. 1L/1000km (1q/600mi) is considered borderline.

They're 3/4" longer than the v6 ones, so you get more filter media for the same price.
Around our shop, we stock the longer 4 cylinder ones (for corollas) and the v8 ones which fit all v6 and v8, as well as 22R.
