When using the 2.7-liter engine in the 2010 Toyota 4Runner, you will need 5.8 liters (6.13 quarts) of 0W-20 oil. For the 4.0-liter V6 engine, you should use 6.2 liters (6.55 quarts) of the same oil. Toyota suggests changing the oil every 7,500 miles or 6 months, but it's more of a recommendation. If you do a lot of towing, off-roading, or drive at low speeds over long distances, you may need to change the oil more often. Regularly check the oil to avoid potential engine damage from low or old oil. Some recommended oil brands are Valvoline, Castrol Edge, Mag 1, Quaker State, and Pennzoil Platinum. The typical cost for an oil change in a 4Runner ranges from $110 to $150, with labor making up around $40 to $50 of that total.
