The 2005 Toyota Highlander requires SAE 5w-30 full synthetic oil with a capacity of 5 quarts. Oil is essential as it lubricates engine parts, protects the emission system, and can improve fuel efficiency. The cost for an oil change for your Highlander typically ranges from $40 to $50 for labor and $100 to $110 for parts. It is recommended to schedule an oil change every 10,000 miles or annually. Signs that indicate the need for an oil change include transmission shifting problems, increased engine noise, shaking at idle, excessive vehicle exhaust, a noticeable oil smell inside the vehicle, and the illumination of the Check Engine or Oil Change indicator lights.
