ToyotaĀ Oil Change 101

What Is An Oil Change?

During an oil change, our Toyota Service Center in Clearwater drains old oil and refills your Toyota with factory-recommended motor oil. The oil filter is also replaced to remove contaminants from the engine oil, and the maintenance indicator light is reset to accurately track remaining oil life. Fresh oil lubricates your Toyota's engine. Clean oil for your Toyota will protect the engine and keep it running at a cool temperature.

How Do I Know If My Toyota Needs An Oil Change?

Low remaining oil life is the biggest oil change indicator. An oil light on your Toyota's dash may appear, but you can also remove the dipstick manually with your Toyota on level ground. Check to see if the reading is at or below the "Low" marking. If so, your Toyota needs more motor oil. Subpar performance ratings, exhaust smoke, loud engine noises, and black or dirty oil signal an oil change is needed.

How Often Does My Toyota Need An Oil Change?

Your Toyota will likely need an annual oil change or fresh oil every 10,000 miles. Toyota vehicles using SAE 0W-20 synthetic oil have extended oil change intervals of 10,000 miles and 12 months. Other Toyotas using SAE 5W-30 grade motor oil will need an oil change every 5,000 miles or six months. Conventional oil change visits are every 3,000 miles. We use genuine Toyota motor oil for all oil changes.

What Will Happen If My Car Doesn't Get An Oil Change?

Parts within the engine block may begin to rub together and create friction. The grinding of engine parts can lead to engine damage and overheating. Your Toyota is more susceptible to breakdowns, and you're more at risk for costly engine repairs or a full engine replacement. Without Toyota oil change service in Clearwater, the oil will thicken to sludge and your Toyota will earn lower fuel economy ratings on I-275 around St. Petersburg.
