2024 Tacoma Oil Change Guide!

Would highly recommend staying with the Toyota oil. Any full synthetic meets the standards there's does but Toyotas oil is specifically formulated for their engines with particular additive packages. The motor oil geek on youtube has some great videos on this. Just food for thought.
If you read the back of Toyota oil bottle you’ll see it’s manufactured by Exxon Mobil….it’s likely mobil1. Toyota doesn’t manufacture oil or filters they just rebrand them. I’m not telling anyone to not use Toyota branded oil or filters but you can buy other brands without concern

Back a few decades ago my local Toyota dealer used Valvoline engine oil pumped from big drums. It was my understanding that Toyota oil back then was rebranded Valvoline. Same for gear oil.
 
Just did my first oil change, a lot easier than expected. @ 1563miles... RP 0w20, N1 Filter, Fumoto drain plug... The filter drain is millimeters off the frame, no mess if slowly removing filter.
