The 2018 Toyota Tundra comes with a choice of either a 4.6 L V8 or a 5.7 L V8 engine that requires 0W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil. The viscosity rating of 0W-20 indicates the thickness of the oil when starting up; "0" represents the viscosity, "W" stands for winter, and "20" signifies the oil's thickness when the vehicle is in operation. The truck's oil capacity is 8.5 quarts with a filter, and the torque for the drain plug is 30 ft/lbs. It's important to remember that oil needs to be changed regularly, typically every 7,500 to 10,000 miles for the Tundra. The cost of an oil change ranges from $60 to $80 for labor.
No matter which specific model you choose from the 2018 Toyota Tundra lineup, such as those that run on Flex Fuel or regular gas, have a 4.6 liter or 5.7 liter engine, come in Crewmax or double cab variants, with short or long beds, and offer rear wheel drive or four wheel drive, they all require the use of 0w-20 fully synthetic oil. This includes the SR, SR5, Limited, 1794, and Platinum trims.
