Engine oil OEM Toyota or PENNZOIL

PENNZOIL Engine oil

Ultra platinum 5w20, in the summer when I’m towing my boat a lot I’ll use 5w30 ultra platinum. That’s about it. The key thing is oil changes every 5k, do not do the 10k oil change interval

Pros: good for towing

PENNZOIL Engine oil

2014 1500 with no tick (85k miles). New to me truck and I’m running Pennzoil ultra 5w20 with a Royal purple filter. I might switch to the redline but the PUP was more accessible to me. In theory I live somewhere it could be super cold this time of year but it hasn’t. Depending on when I do my next oil change I might do the 5w30 if it’s going to be hot for awhile.

Edit to say that 5k oil changes for me max. I did my first one at 4k because I didn’t know what the engine had in it and wanted to get something good

Pros: no tick, accessible oil
Mileage: 85000 km

I use Penzoil Ultra platinum 5w20 and a Mobil 1 filter. No issues so far, but I'm just closing in on 100k miles.

Pros: no issues so far
Mileage: 100000 km

OEM Toyota Engine oil

Do it, new engines throw off a lot of burs and metal particulates before the parts get seated. I changed the oil on my 2023 venza limited at 950miles. Listen to the car care nut master Toyota tech who sez change the oil at first 1kmiles. He cuts open his filter after 1k miles and the filter is full of metal particles.

Pros: removes burs, particulates
Cons: metal particles
Vehicle: Toyota Venza
Mileage: 950 km

OEM Toyota Engine oil

I just changed the oil in our new 2023 RAV 4 Prime at 1,000 miles, we have been driving in HV mode to run the engine for break in. I also sent off an oil sample, but have not received the results yet. I did open open up the oil filter and found some tiny bits of metal! At least the filter catches it. I have always changed the oil after the first 1,000 miles in our new cars (Toyotas the last 30 years). Also the dealer said every 10k miles but I always do it at 5k.

Pros: filter catches metal, peace of mind
Cons: tiny metal bits
Vehicle: Toyota
Mileage: 1000 km

I feel it is a good idea to change the oil after the first 500-1000 miles.

I do this just in case something got left behind in the manufacturing process that I don't want circulating in the engine.

There is no guarantee this will make any difference in the life of the engine.

Pros: good idea, precaution
Cons: no guarantee

If you have ever rebuilt an engine that used Pennzoil, you would never use it again. The top of the head will be covered in carbon.

Cons: carbon buildup
