2009 TOYOTA TUNDRA oil viscosity

482 4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
■Recommended viscosity
4.0 L V6 (1GR-FE) and 4.7 L V8 (2UZ-FE) engines
SAE 5W-30 is the best choice for
good fuel economy, and good
starting in cold weather.
*: If SAE 5W-30 oil is not avail-able, SAE 10W-30 oil may be
used. However, it should be
replaced with SAE 5W-30 at
the next oil change.
5.7 L V8 (3UR-FE, 3UR-FBE) engine
SAE 5W-20 or 0W-20
*: SAE 5W-20 or 0W-20 engineoil may be used. However,
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice
for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather.
■ How to read oil container labels
Some oil containers are labeled with ILSAC certification marks that
help you to select the proper oil.

Maintenance and care
■
Engine oil consumption
●The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the
quality of the oil and the way the vehicle is driven.
● More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and
frequent acceleration and deceleration.
● A new engine consumes more oil.
● When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil
may have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accu-
rately.
■ After changing the engine oil (U.S.A. only)
The oil change system should be reset. Perform the following procedures:
Turn the engine switch off with the trip meter A reading shown.
While pressing the trip meter reset button ( P. 188, 190), turn the
engine switch on.
Without multi-information display Continue to press and hold the button until the trip meter displays
000000.
With multi-information display
Continue to press and hold the button until “MAINT REQD RESET
MODE COMPLETE” appears on the multi-information display.
CAUTION
■Used engine oil
●Used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may
cause skin disorders such as inflammation or skin cancer, so care should
be taken to avoid prolonged and repeated contact. To remove used engine
oil from your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
● Dispose of used oil and filters only in a safe and acceptable manner. Do
not dispose of used oil and filters in household trash, in sewers or onto the
ground. Call your Toyota dealer, service station or auto parts store for
information concerning recycling or disposal.
● Do not leave used engine oil within the reach of children.

*: 5W-30 is an oil that provides optimal levels of fuel efficiency.
Oil viscosity
● The 5W portion of the oil viscosity rating indicates the characteristic
of the oil which allows cold startab ility. Oils with a lower value before
the W allow for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
● The 30 in 5W-30 indicates the oil viscosity when the oil is at its
operating temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity may be better
suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme
load condition.
