The 2009 Toyota Corolla requires 4.5 quarts of oil. It's crucial to use high-quality oil for the engine to function properly. Eventually, issues will arise with the oil. Using old or low-quality oil can lead to engine failure, resulting in unusual knocking sounds and poor gas mileage. A common sign of trouble is a strong burning smell, signaling that the oil should be replaced promptly to avoid potential engine damage. It is recommended to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent engine problems down the line. Failure to do so could have serious consequences for your car's engine.
