Engine break in oils?

i just purchased a 2018 trd sport, v6, 4x2, auto, access cab

i was wondering if toyota uses any type of speical break-in oils for either the engine, transmission, or differential on the 3rd gen tacoma.

i plan on changing out all the oils after i put 1k miles on my new truck if there is no special break-in oils that come from the factory.

thank you.

 

No it's just regular oils

 

The critical wear components have been broken in at the factory. For shit and giggle I sent my first oil change to black stone labs after 1500 miles and it didn't show anything truly remarkable and the next change at 5000 was about as standard as a sample gets

 

In 5k you can change it but not recommended.. not in 1k

 

I will be changing my engine oil and filter every 5000miles. Toyota recommends it in the owners manual for people who frequently travel off road and drive short distances when it is below freezing temps

 

thanks guys! i may hold off then and just change it at 5k miles and send a sample off to blackstone as well.

 

I just sent my 10k sample in to Blackstone recently, expecting my results any day now.

 

Changing your diff oils and tranny fluid at 5000 is purely a waste of money ....

 

To each their own,my oil will be changed every 5k miles,diff will be changed at 5 k but then probably not again until about 30k,tranny fluid at 50k.

 

I'm changing my oil well before it's 1st recommended oil change of 16,000 kl, just in case of excess metal shavings during the break-in period. I will be using Amzoil and wont mind going the recommended 16,000 kl after that.

 

This thread makes me LOL, almost as much as people that baby their engines during "break-in."

 

Ive heard this before..
How is this factory break in done?
