I recently bought a used Toyota Corolla and I'm not sure what type of engine oil I should use. Can you recommend a specific brand and viscosity? Also, how often should I change the oil?
ReplyI recommend using synthetic oil for your Toyota Corolla. It offers better protection and performance for your engine. As for the viscosity, most newer models of Corolla require 0W-20 or 5W-20. Check your owner's manual for the specific recommendation. As for how often to change the oil, it's recommended to do so every 5,000 - 7,500 miles.
I've been using conventional oil for my Toyota Corolla for years and haven't had any issues. As for the viscosity, I always stick with the manufacturer's recommendation. As for how often to change the oil, I usually do it every 3,000 miles. It may be more frequent than recommended, but it gives me peace of mind.
I used to use high mileage oil for my old Toyota Corolla, but I recently switched to synthetic oil and I can definitely feel the difference in performance. As for the viscosity, I follow the manufacturer's recommendation. And for the frequency of oil changes, I always do it every 5,000 miles.
