Diesel engine (for EURO IV models*1)
*1: EURO IV is an emission standard. If it is not clear that your vehicle meets
relevant standards, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
*2: The engine oil capacity is a reference quantity 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 Toyota vehicle. Use
Toyota approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent to sat-
isfy the following grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: API CF-4, CF or ACEA B1, B3, B4, B5 or JASO DL-0
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
SAE 5W-30 is the best choice
for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather.
If you use SAE 10W-30 or a
higher viscosity engine oil in
extremely low temperatures,
the engine may become difficult
to start, so SAE 5W-30 engine
oil is recommended.

How to read oil container label:
The Japanese Automobile
Standard Organization (JASO)
DL-0 Mark is added to some oil
containers to help you select
the oil you should use.
Oil viscosity (5W-30 is explained here as an example):
• The 5W in 5W-30 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 30 in 5W-30 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.

*1: EURO V and VI are emission standards. If it is not clear that your vehicle
meets relevant standards, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
*2: The engine oil capacity is a reference quantity 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.

HILUX_OM_OM0K375E_(EE)
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
SAE 0W-30 is filled into your
Toyota vehicle at manufactur-
ing, and the best choice for
good fuel economy and good
starting in cold weather.
Oil viscosity (0W-30 is explained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-30 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 30 in 0W-30 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.
