In 2010, the Toyota Tacoma with a 2.7 L or 4.0 L engine requires 5.5 quarts of engine oil. Toyota recommends using SAE 0w-20 or 5w-30 oil for this model. Here are some lesser-known facts about engine oil: Contrary to the Dark Oil Myth, darkened motor oil does not necessarily mean it needs to be changed. However, it should be replaced at the proper oil change interval based on mileage or time elapsed. Changing the oil too often can be wasteful – only change it if it benefits the vehicle. Non-synthetic oils should be replaced every 5000km.
