In the 2009 Toyota Camry, there are seven different setups, and each uses one of three engines. The two 2.4L 4Cylinder engines in various configurations require 4.5 quarts of SAE 0W-20 full synthetic motor oil. You can temporarily use SAE 5W-20 if needed. The larger 3.5L V6 engine uses 6.4 quarts of SAE 5W-30 full synthetic oil, with SAE 5W-40 being a short-term substitute. Using a heavier oil can cause extra friction, leading to premature engine wear and potential failure, so it's best to stick to the manufacturer's recommended oil weight, even at a higher cost.
