    I just got these at Walmart about a month ago. Same batch maybe? I don’t think every Toyota filter made looks exactly the same over the years from the color to the stampings.

    I don't have the link handy but I recall 1-2 years back there was a Memo to dealers stating Toyota changed to a different filter material that would be orange instead of yellow. You can still find yellow in stock but eventually they will all be this orange color going forward.

    Think it was even talked about on here as well... somewhere in the depths of some oil thread.
