Engine	Oil Type	Capacity	Filter
2.7 L (2TR-FE)	0W-20	6.1 q (5.8 L)	Toyota Oil Filter 90915-YZZG2
4.0 L (1GR-FE) 2WD	5W-30	4.8 q (4.5 L)	Toyota Oil Filter 90915YZZD3
4.0 L (1GR-FE) 4WD/Prerunner	5W-30	5.5 q (5.2 L)	Toyota Oil Filter 90915YZZD3

If Toyota engine oil is not available, an oil that meets the ILSAC-GF-5 multigrade oil specifications can be used.

Additionally, Toyota states that if SAE 0W-20, or 5W-30 is not available, 5W-20 or 10W-30 can be used in its place, respectively, but should only be used one change in a row.
