2010 TOYOTA COROLLA oil viscosity

318 4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Install the filler cap, turning it clockwise.
The approximate quantity of oil needed to raise the level between low and
full on the dipstick is indicated as follows:
1.8 L 4-cylinder (2ZR-FE) engine
1.6 qt. (1.5 L, 1.3 lmp. qt.)
2.4 L 4-cylinder (2AZ-FE) engine
1.1 qt. (1.0 L, 0.9 lmp. qt.)
■ Recommended viscosity
SAE 5W-20 or 0W-20 engine oil
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
The ILSAC (International Lubricant Standardization and Approval
Committee) Certification Mark is added to some oil containers to
help you select th e oil you should use.

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.
● Oil consumption: Max. 1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 lmp. qt./600 miles (1.0 L per
1000 km)
● If you consume more than 1.1 qt. (1.0 L, 0.9 lmp. qt.) every 600 miles
(1000 km), contact your Toyota dealer.
■ After changing the engine oil (U.S.A. only)
The engine oil maintenance data should be reset. Perform the following pro-
cedures:
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch or engine switch OFF with
the trip meter A reading shown.
While pressing the trip meter reset button ( P. 143), turn the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch or engine switch ON.
Continue to press and hold the button until the trip meter displays
000000.

Oil viscosity
● The 0W 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 20 in 0W-20 indicates the oil viscosity when the oil is at its oper-
ating temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity may be better suited
if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme load con-
ditions.
