3rd Generation Toyota Care Service

Just got a 2018 Toyota TRD Off Road with 3.5 Engine...I know it uses 0-20 weight oil but is it synthetic or regular and do they do oil change at 5,000 or 10,000? Thanks

 

Full synthetic from day 1. Toyota will do every 10k, this is up to you if you want to do otherwise.

 

So basically you only get two free oil changes...

 

Yes

 

Yep.
I'm gonna be doing every 5, as was recommended and covered for the wife's Camry.
A little mo money to make me feel a little mo warms and cozies.

 

Im gonna do 5,000 also..

 

Only need to change at 10k

Engine tolerances and oil chemistry have advanced significantly. Any sooner you're throwing away money.

 

Please post irrefutable, undeniable proof, in triplicate. Until then, I'm gonna piss away $40 bucks every 5K miles.

 

lol

 

Why not go for 2k miles then? That's how often my Chevy needs them done.

 

Did 1,500 back in the day when 3k was the norm. had a lot of vehicles hit mileage numbers far beyond the norm, and still going strong when they left my possession.

 

Another worthless oil thread.....

 

There’s threads of oil samples sent off to Blackstone to be tested at 10k miles and they’re absolutely fine. You’re not wrong if it’s your peace of mind, but the facts are undeniable.

 

Probably would blow his mind to know he could go 20k-25k miles.

 

To each their own my friend, and I mean that respectfully.

 

Absolutely. I’m by no way trying to refute your statements. If it gives you a peace of mind and have the disposable income then like you said, to each his own.

 

In that spirit, I'll leave this thread. Best of luck to all of us.

 

Should be a maintenance book in your document package.

 

I'm doing 5k as well. Piece of mind is worth more than a few bucks and an hour of my time.

 

10k or get a Ford bai
