The 2001 Toyota Highlander requires SAE 5w-30 full synthetic oil with a capacity of 5 quarts. The oil plays a crucial role in keeping your engine's internal components lubricated and clean, ensuring smooth operation of your vehicle. An oil change for your Highlander typically costs between $40 and $50 for labor and $100 and $110 for parts. It is recommended to have your oil changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Signs that indicate the need for an oil change while driving include engine noise, a ticking engine, transmission shifting problems, shaking while idling, and decreased fuel efficiency. External signs that suggest the need for an oil change include smoke instead of regular exhaust and oil leaks where your car is parked.
