The 2017 Toyota Highlander requires 4.6 quarts of oil for its 2.7L 4-cylinder engine and 5.8 quarts for the 3.5L V6 engine. Toyota suggests using SAE 0W-20 full synthetic oil for the oil change. There are two main types of oil available: conventional, which is an older petroleum-based type, and synthetic, a newer type designed to offer improved protection and longevity. Synthetic oil should be replaced every 7,500 miles, while conventional oil should be changed every 3,500 to 5,000 miles. I recommend checking your oil monthly to ensure it is clean and free of burn marks or particles.
How often should the oil be changed in a car based on the mileage driven?
