Engine oil OEM Toyota or RED LINE
I’ll be doing my first one at 1000 miles, then I’ll be doing them every 5000 miles or 6 months.
Using Redline 5w-50 on my E90 M3. it's supposed to have a similar viscosity at high temps as most 60wt oils. Comes up to operating temp faster and doesn't overheat.
I found a dealership that sells the Toyota oem at 5.90 a quart so that’s what I use. It’s made by Mobil 1 but has certain additives added specifically for Toyota specifications that regular Mobil 1 doesn’t have. Technically it’s what the 4Runner will run best with.
Toyota synthetic. I was going to do Mobile 1 but noticed a few claims of people using both saying it shifted a little more smoothly with the Toyota oil
I also switched to a 50 weight, Redline.
I was seeing moderate oil consumption and the heavier viscosity seems to have fixed that issue
I change my oil at dealer every 10k miles. This time I am going to pay $299 for a package of 5 oil changes, with tire rotations, filter and all liquids fililled up if necessary.
The best oil to use is the RedLine full synthetic two-stroke Racing oil. Modern full synthetic two stroke oils are way better than older oils and work great.
Red Line products go in all my cars. AMSoil and Motul also quite good.
I use redline hp 5w30 for my n54. 7500 mi intervals. I’m at 113k miles currently. At about 90k I send my oil off to blackstone for an oil analysis. Came back in very good shape and they indicated I could easily go to a 10k mi interval.
From the 21 Camry owners manual: “SAE 0W-16 is the best choice for good fuel economy and good starting in cold weather. If SAE 0W-16 is not available, 0W-20 oil may be used. However, it must be replaced with 0W-16 at the next oil change.”
