Oil change intervals

Sorry for the "newb" question. Don't rake me over the coals too badly. I used the search function and came up empty and I'm getting mixed answers from google. How often are y'all changing your oil? 10,000?

 

Me, every 5K, 2016 Tundra, bought used with 26,000, sitting now with over 85,000, Mobil1 High Mileage 0W-20

 

I do the same

 

I do what Toyota recommends. If it's good enough for Toyota, it's good enough for me. If anything, the 10k recommendation by Toyota is a little conservative to avoid potential damage and lawsuits.

 

Do you still have the owners manual? what does it recommend?

 

5K is my standard interval yet 'sometimes' i go 7500, no mo'....

 

10,000 miles for non FFV engines and 5,000 miles for FFV engines.

 

5k, OEM filter and cheapest full synthetic I can get. If you’re out of warranty plenty of people run longer intervals using higher end oils and filters without issue.

 

Every 5K miles for me with my supercharged crewmax

 

Every 5k with 5w-30 on my supercharged engine moving 40" tires through 4.88 gears.

 

10K with the cheapest shit on the shelf ! Lol

 

I mostly did 5k intervals. I did a 10k interval once.

 

A quick search in this forum will reveal a myriad of answers - it’s highly personal. Toyota specifies 5K or 10K depending on if it’s FFV or not. But a lot of folks have their reasons for doing orherwise.

Me? Every 5K - I just sent off a sample to Blackstone so we’ll see what they say.

 

I switched to Amsoil last summer.

0w-20 change every 10k
Factory oil filter change every 5k.

I have around 7500 miles on the oil right now and it still looks like the day I poured it in there.

 

Royal purple since new every 10k. She has 157k on the clock now and I plan on another 843k. Runs like a dream

 

Send the oil to Blackstone for an analysis.

 

I just did this^^^. Changed it after 5000 mi, 11,200 on the truck. Oil was darker than I would have expected at 5k miles. I use Mobil 1 full synthetic 0W-20.

 

Every 10k on FFV engine. I dont run ethanol fuel so I go 10k. I'll post a UOA after I change my oil next time. Running Schaeffer 0w20 synthetic

 

Plenty of tundras with high mileage that followed 10k intervals. 5k changes is wasting money,IMO

 

Every 10K on a FFV engine, Mobile 1 & oem filter, I don't run ethanol & the engine internals are identical to a non-FFV contrary to internet speculation. I sent a sample to Blackstone at my 50K interval, the report stated the oil was still good & they recommended to go to a 14K-15K interval. I'm good with 10K, it's easy to keep track of.

 

I am a light-duty Tundra driver:
- no towing
- no off-roading
- 5,000 miles annually on mainly long country roads
Therefore, I change my oil once a year at the 5,000 mile mark with 0W-20 Castrol Magnatec or Walmart Supertech.

 

I have 410,000 miles on my truck now. Oil changes every 5k with 0W-20. No issues.

 

Every 10k with Mobil 1 full synthetic for the pavement princess.

 

534 miles. Coconut oil.

I'm doing every 11,000. My oil coach wants me to go 13,000.

 

Not sure if anything has changed on the 2020's (I do know there is no longer two different fuel rated motors) but the salesman told me that the interval for my truck is 5000 miles. The sticker on the window says to come back at 5000 miles. But the maintenance manual still says 10,000 unless it's severe duty. So anyway I have lifetime oil changes so I'm probably gonna do it every 5k if they do it.

 

After I installed my Fumoto valve since it’s so easy I want to change it every fill up!

 

Flex Fuel Engines require oil change every 5,000 miles

Non Flex Fuel Engines 10,000 miles

 

The 2020's no longer have a choice. There is no flex fuel and non flex fuel choice. It's one choice. So that is why I think my dealer told me 5k intervals. Time will tell. Truck has 263 miles on it so a ways to go
