The recommended oil type and capacity for the 2007 Toyota Tacoma are either 0w20 or 5w20 and 5.5 quarts, and it will eventually need to be changed. It is generally advised to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent engine problems. Using high-quality oil is crucial for optimal engine performance, as issues with the oil can lead to complications like a foul burning odor. This concern should be addressed promptly to avoid potential dangers, such as engine failure or the risk of an explosion. Symptoms of bad oil may also include poor gas mileage and unusual knocking noises coming from the engine.

In the 2007 Toyota Tacoma, the 2.7-liter inline-4 engine requires either 5.5 quarts of 0W20 or 5W20 synthetic oil. While Toyota recommends 0W20, they permit the use of 5W20 (switch to 0W20 when possible). The 4.0-liter V6 engine option in the 2007 Tacoma uses 5W30 synthetic oil. The amount of oil needed varies depending on the trim and drive package: 5.5 quarts for the RWD PRE, 4.8 quarts for the RWD base and RWD XRUN, and 5.5 quarts for the 4WD version.
