In the 2006 Toyota RAV4 with a 2.4 liter four cylinder engine, it is recommended to use 4.5 quarts of SAE 5W-20 oil. Toyota advises using synthetic oil for better protection and longer lifespan. The market offers two main types of oil: conventional, which is petroleum-based and older, and synthetic, which is newer and specifically engineered. You should only need to change synthetic oil every 7,500 miles, as opposed to every 3,500 to 5,000 miles for conventional oil. It is advisable to check your oil at least once a month to ensure it is clean and not overheating.
