Introduction

For the 2006 model year, all Toyota and Scion vehicles come from the assembly plant filled with ILSAC GF-4 engine oil. The new oil is compatible with all previous oil standards and should be used at all maintenance intervals.

NOTE:

^ Be sure to use the correct viscosity grade of motor oil when servicing vehicles. The recommended oil viscosity varies according to the engine. If 5W-30 is the primary specified oil but is NOT available, 10W-30 may be used. However, it should be replaced with 5W-30 at the next oil change. Please refer to the Owner's Manual for additional information.

^ For Prius vehicles, refer to TSB No. EG050-04, "Engine Oil Specifications."
