Engine oil selection

Gasoline Engine -
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Toyota vehicle. Toyota
recommends  the  use  of  approved  “Toyota  Genuine  Motor  Oil”.
Another motor oil of matching quality can also be used.
Oil grade:
0W-16:
API  grade  SN  “Resource-Conserving”,  SN  PLUS  “Resource-Con-
serving” or SP “Resource-Conserving”; or ILSAC GF-6B multigrade
engine oil
0W-20 and 5W-30:
API  grade  SM  “Energy-Conserving”,  SN  “Resource-Conserving”,
SN PLUS “Resource-Conserving” or SP “Resource-Conserving”; or
ILSAC GF-6A multigrade engine oil

Recommended viscosity (SAE):

SAE  0W-16  is  filled  into  your
Toyota  vehicle  at  manufactur-
ing,  and  the  best  choice  for
good  fuel  economy  and  good
starting in cold weather. 
If  SAE  0W-16  oil  is  not  avail-
able,  SAE  0W-20  oil  may  be
used.  However,  it  should  be
replaced with SAE 0W-16 at the
next oil change. 

Temperature range anticipated 
before next oil change

8-1. Specifications

Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained here as an example):

• The  0W  in  0W-16  indicates  the  characteristic  of  the  oil  which

allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow
for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.

• The 16 in  0W-16  indicates  the viscosity characteristic of  the oil

when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity
(one  with  a  higher  value)  may  be  better  suited  if  the  vehicle  is
operated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions.

How to read oil container labels:
Either or both API registered marks are added to some oil contain-
ers to help you select the oil you should use.

API Service Symbol

Top portion: “API SERVICE SP”
means  the  oil  quality  designa-
tion  by  American  Petroleum
Institute (API).
Center  portion:  “SAE  0W-16”
means the SAE viscosity grade.
Lower  portion:  “Resource-Con-
serving”  means  that  the  oil  has
fuel-saving  and  environmental
protection capabilities.

ILSAC Certification Mark

The 

International 

Lubricant

Specification  Advisory  Commit-
tee (ILSAC) Certification Mark is
displayed  on  the  front  of  the

Fuel information

■

Use of ethanol blended gasoline in a gasoline engine

Toyota allows the use of ethanol blended gasoline where the ethanol content
is up to 10%. Make sure that the ethanol blended gasoline to be used has a
Research Octane Number that follows the above.

■

If your engine knocks

●

Consult any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.

●

You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time while accelerat-
ing or driving uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern.

When  you  find  these  types of fuel  label  at  the  gas station,  use
only the fuel with one of the following labels.

 

EU area:
You must  only  use  unleaded  gasoline conforming  to European
standard EN228.
Select unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of 95
or higher for optimum engine performance.
Except EU area:
You must only use unleaded gasoline.
Select unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of 95
or higher for optimum engine performance.

NOTICE

■

Notice on fuel quality

●

Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be
damaged.

●

Do not use gasoline with metallic additives, for example manganese, iron
or lead, otherwise it may cause damage on your engine or emission con-
trol system.

●

Do not add aftermarket fuel additives which contain metallic additives.

●

EU  area:  Bioethanol  fuel  sold  under  names  such  as  “E50”  or  “E85”  and
fuel containing a large amount of ethanol should not be used. The use of
these  fuels  will  damage  the  vehicle’s  fuel  system.  In  case  of  any  doubt,
ask  any  authorized  Toyota  retailer  or  Toyota  authorized  repairer,  or  any
reliable repairer.

●

Except EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under names such as “E50” or “E85”
and  fuel  containing  a  large  amount  of  ethanol  should  not  be  used. Your
vehicle  can  use  gasoline  mixed  with  10%  max  ethanol.  The  use  of  fuel
with more than 10% ethanol content (E10) will damage the vehicle’s fuel
system. You must ensure that refueling is carried out only from a source
where  fuel  specification  and  quality  can  be  guaranteed.  In  case  of  any
doubt, any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.

●

Do not use the methanol blended gasoline such as M15, M85, M100. 
The  use  of  gasoline  containing  methanol  may  cause  engine  damage  or
failure.
