The recommended oil type and capacity for the 2006 Toyota 4Runner with a 4.0 L V6 engine is 5w30 and 5.5 quarts. It is important to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent engine issues. Using high-quality oil is essential for optimal engine performance. Neglecting oil changes can lead to engine failure, indicated by a burning smell or poor gas mileage. Additionally, knocking noises from the engine should be addressed promptly to avoid potential safety hazards.

    My 4Runner, which has racked up 227,000 miles, runs on Mobil 1 synthetic extended performance – high mileage, 5W-30 oil and a Mobil 1 extended performance M1-102A oil filter. I purchase a 5-quart container along with an additional single quart from Walmart at a great deal, allowing me to perform the oil change myself.
