The amount of oil needed for a 2009 Toyota Tacoma depends on the type of engine you have. For the 2.7 L 4-cylinder engine, you'll need 6.1 quarts with the filter. The 4.0 L V6 requires 4.8 quarts with 2WD and 5.2 quarts with 4WD, including the filter. The recommended viscosities are 5W-20 or 0W-20 for the 4-cylinder and 5W-30 for the V6. It's important to use an ILSAC multigrade oil. If you're unsure which brand to choose, genuine Toyota engine oil is a reliable option, even though it may be slightly pricier than other brands.
