To achieve the best fuel efficiency and safeguard your engine in the 2001 Lexus GS300, it is recommended to use Mobil 1 SAE 5W-30 oil. The amount of oil required varies based on the engine type - the 3.0 L 6-cylinder engine can take up to 5.7 quarts, while the 4.3 L V8 engine can hold up to 5.5 quarts. To extend the engine's lifespan, it is advised to check the oil level weekly, ideally while refueling. If the oil level drops below the recommended amount, add oil until it reaches the appropriate level. Plan to change the oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first, for optimal engine maintenance.
