What type of engine oil should be used for Toyota?

[DiAngelo]

Toyota vehicles use 0W20 or 5W20 engine oil, and it is best not to use oil with a viscosity exceeding 5W30. Toyota's design philosophy: It should be a popular concept, emphasizing not handling or high horsepower, but a price and fuel consumption that the general public can accept, along with comfortable seating. Therefore, Toyota engines are designed to be conventional and do not have very high requirements for engine oil. In some regions, 5W or even 10W can be used all year round. In cold areas, 5W is also suitable for all seasons, while in extremely cold regions, 0W can be used. In summer, 10W or even 20W can be considered. Using oil with too low viscosity: This can easily lead to insufficient lubrication of internal engine components, increasing the wear level of parts, and may even result in oil burning. Due to the low viscosity, the oil can easily seep into the engine combustion chamber and participate in combustion, which can cause the vehicle's oxygen sensor to fail prematurely, leading to issues such as idle shaking, lack of acceleration power, and increased fuel consumption.
