The 2003 Toyota Corolla requires 5w30 oil and 4.4 quarts. It is important to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to keep the engine running smoothly. Neglecting to change the oil can lead to engine problems. Using high-quality oil is crucial for optimal engine performance. Not replacing the oil can result in issues such as a strong burning smell, which should be addressed promptly to prevent potential danger. Poor quality oil may cause the engine to fail and reduce gas mileage. Additionally, engine knocking noise might occur as a sign of trouble.
