When you have the 2.5-liter engine in your 2011 Toyota RAV4, you'll need 4.2 liters (4.5 quarts) of 0W-20 motor oil. If you have the 3.5-liter V6 engine, you'll need 6 liters (6.4 quarts) of 5W-30 oil. The thinner oil in the smaller engine is perfect for fuel efficiency and cold temperatures, while the 5W-30 oil works well in various weather conditions. Toyota suggests changing the oil in your 2011 RAV4 every 6,000 miles or 6 months, depending on which comes first. Your driving habits may require more frequent maintenance checks. The cost of an oil change for this SUV ranges from $130 to $170, with labor typically accounting for $40 to $60 of the total cost. You can save money by doing the maintenance work yourself.
