Engine oil consumption

●

The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the
quality of the oil and the way the vehicle is driven.

●

More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and
frequent acceleration and deceleration.

●

A new engine consumes more oil.

●

When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil
may have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accu-
rately.

●

Oil consumption: Max. 1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 lmp. qt./600 miles (1.0 L per
1000 km)

●

If you consume more than 1.1 qt. (1.0 L, 0.9 lmp. qt.) every 600 miles
(1000 km), contact your Toyota dealer.
