What Type of Oil Does a 2003 Toyota Tundra Take?
Engine Options and Oil Recommendations
Toyota recommends using 5W-30 oil for the 2003 Toyota Tundra, which is available with two engine options: a 3.4-liter V6 and a 4.7-liter V8. All trims appear to use the same type of oil.
Engine Code and Oil Capacity
The oil capacity varies depending on the engine code. Here are the capacities for each engine:
- 5VZ-FE (3.4L V6): 5.2 quarts
- 2UZ-FE (4.7L V8): 8.5 quarts
Oil Change Intervals
Toyota recommends changing the oil every 5,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. However, this interval may vary depending on driving conditions and usage.
Additional Information
* The 2003 Toyota Tundra came standard with a 3.4L V6 engine, but there was also an upgrade option to the 4.7L V8. * If you have a used 2003 Tundra, check the oil level and condition regularly, as older vehicles may require more frequent oil changes.
