line Engines” or equivalent to satisfy the following grade and vis-
cosity.

Recommended viscosity (SAE):
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil SAE
0W-20 for Downsized Turbo
Gasoline Engines” is filled into
your Toyota vehicle at manufac-
turing, and SAE 0W-20 is the
best choice for good fuel econ-
omy and good starting in cold
weather.
If SAE 0W-20 oil is not available, SAE 5W-30 oil may be used.
However, it should be replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil
change.
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic 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 better suited if the vehicle is
operated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions.
