The service team at Atkins Kroll Guam has more information on the right Toyota 4Runner oil type with our guide. Keep reading to get all the details!
You’ll want to bring your 4Runner in for an oil change every six months or 5,000 miles for best results. During this service appointment, we’ll look over the tires, battery, and fluids, rotate the tires, and perform an oil change using the right oil and an OEM Toyota 4Runner oil filter.
Why do we use the OEM oil for a Toyota 4Runner? It’s made specifically for your SUV. That’s also why we install a Toyota 4Runner oil filter for best results on Yigo streets and roads.
For peak performance, the manufacturer and our service technicians highly recommend SAE 0W-20 or SAE 5W-20 full synthetic oil. We also suggest Toyota’s brand of motor oil because it’s specially formulated for the automaker’s engines, including the 4.0L V6 one in your 4Runner.
Synthetic motor oils are the standard for many new Toyota 4Runner models. However, older model years may have different oil requirements. It’s always best to check your owner’s manual or vehicle information screen to see what oil your exact model, trim, and year needs.
Remember, if you love DIY oil changes, make sure to use a genuine Toyota 4Runner oil filter.
You’ll need to purchase enough oil to fully replace it in your 4Runner’s engine. The Toyota 4Runner oil capacity of 6.6 quarts for the 3.0L engine size. If you don’t have time for an oil change, we can do it for you in Tamuning. We’ll have you back on the road in no time!
The best oil for a Toyota 4Runner SUV is full synthetic. Synthetic oil tends to be more expensive because it undergoes more refinements, has more cleansers, and contains more anti-oxidizers to make the oil last longer. However, you’re bringing your vehicle in for an oil change less frequently. You can actually save money over the long term with full synthetic oil changes. Synthetic oil also performs better at higher temperatures, which makes it better for tough, high-performance vehicles like the 4Runner. And when it gets very warm on our island, you’ll want the best protection for your Toyota’s engine!
