* : The engine oil capacity is a reference qu antity to be used when changing the
engine oil. Warm up and turn off the engine, wait more than 5 minutes, and
check the oil level on the dipstick.
■ Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Lexus vehicle. Use Lexus
approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent to satisfy the follow-
ing grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good
starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-20 is not available,
SAE 5W-20 oil may be used.
However, it must be replaced with
SAE 0W-20 at the next oil
change.Oil capacity

8906-1. Specifications
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the char acteristic 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 20 in 0W-20 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 b etter suited if the vehicl e is operated at high
speeds, or under extreme load conditions.
How to read oil container label:
The International Lubr icant Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC)
Certification Mark is added to some oil containers to help you select the
oil you should use.
