Many car enthusiasts dream of buying a Toyota Corolla, becoming the owner of a comfortable, prestigious car. The model really deserves the highest praise. But it requires quality care. One of its important components is the timely oil change. Moreover, you need to choose a lubricant carefully so that your favorite car performs its function flawlessly for as long as possible. You should know what kind of oil to fill in Toyota Corolla, follow the recommendations of the manufacturer, specialists.

The owner who purchased a Toyota Corolla "from scratch" can read the instructions, which contains data on what oils can be used for a car. But among the owners of this model, there are many who bought a car from their hands. In this case, the instructions for the car usually no longer exist.

The Toyota concern is adamant that only Toyota special oils should be used for its vehicles, regardless of brand. Particularly for the Corolla, oil is recommended

This lubricant is made from synthetic components and is of high quality. The oil is universal, suitable for all seasons.

New items: new Toyota Prado 2016 - watch, new Toyota Fortuner 2016 - watch.

It is known that synthetic lubricants, ideally fulfilling their purpose in new power units, behave differently in old engines. There is a serious risk of leakage through oil seals, seals. Therefore, if the car has a solid age, high mileage, it is advisable to choose a more viscous option - SAE 5W40.

Alternative acceptable oils

It is not always possible to purchase a "native" lubricant. In this case, you need to consider alternatives that can be a worthy replacement for Toyota.

If the car engine is relatively "young", you can choose oil

This material is also synthetic and has a slightly higher viscosity than Toyota lubricant. As an alternative, you can consider the tool

But the previous lubricant is preferable.

A Toyota Corolla equipped with a catalyst can be filled with Dragon sm 5W30 lubricant. The oil has a decent quality, which is noted by both car owners and specialists. But keep in mind that this lubricant has a low base number.

Important! Therefore, it is not worth pouring it into a car without a catalyst. When using this material, it is recommended to change it every six thousand kilometers traveled.

Car owners should be aware that there are a lot of fake engine oils on our market. There is no need to take risks, to purchase the product at unfamiliar points. It is better to buy oil in reliable services, proven car dealerships. Toyota Corolla is worth this attention.

One of the most frequent and discussed questions. What kind of oil to pour into the engine and gearbox of your car. Someone bought a car from hands, and forgot to ask the previous owner what kind of oil was poured in, or the brand of oil is known, but there are doubts about whether it was selected correctly. Another option is the desire to choose an oil with the required characteristics, but at a different price.

In the article, we will try to answer which oil to use for replacement in the engine and gearbox of a Toyota Corolla car. Two of the currently most popular modifications will be considered: Corolla X (E150) from 2006 to 2013, and Corolla IX (E120 / 130) from 2000 to 2007.

How often do you need to change the oil in a Toyota Corolla?

The engine oil must be changed at every service. Toyota Recommended Periodic Maintenance Intervals
every 10,000 km or every 12 months, whichever comes first.

How much engine oil do you need?

According to the passport, engines 1.4 and 1.6 with a filter change include 4.2 liters of oil. This is the volume that is poured into an empty engine at the factory. With scheduled maintenance, 4 liters should be enough, since the oil is not completely drained. Nevertheless, it is better to buy a 5 liter canister
or 4 + 1 liter, top-up may be required.

Engine Oil for Corolla X (E150)

Engine oil that can be used in the most common engines: 1.6 liters with a capacity of 124 l / s, marking - 1ZR-FE.
The 1.4L 4ZZ-FE engine remains unchanged from the previous generation and will be considered when selecting the Corolla IX aphid oil.
Toyota recommends using genuine Toyota Genuine Motor Oil (who would doubt it) or similar. The viscosity of the oil used is selected depending on the operating conditions.
Preference is given to Toyota 0W-20 oil; SAE oils can also be used: 0W-30, 5W-20, 5W-30.

The table shows that it is advisable to use one of two oils:

1. Toyota SN 0W-20, because the manufacturer himself prefers it

2. Toyota SN 5W-30, the most affordable and meets all the requirements.

Both oils are sold in metal cans for added counterfeit protection. The lack of oil can be attributed to a low base number, this indicates that the oil weakly resists oxidation and quickly loses its properties. This process is accelerated when using low quality fuel. The oil develops its resource by 5-6 thousand kilometers.

In addition to original oils, no one prohibits the use of oils from other manufacturers that meet the requirements of Toyota.

The history of the Corolla lineup dates back to 1966, when a compact novelty from Toyota first rolled off the assembly line. Eight years later, she became the Guinness Book-holder for the best-selling car on the planet. Today Corolla is presented in the 11th generation and the concern is not going to stop there. Corolla has a wide range of engines with a wide variety of technical data: from barely working to the amazing 240-horsepower copies of the 4A-GE TRD line with a volume of 1.6 liters. In this article it will be possible to get acquainted with information about what kind of oil to pour into them and how much.

The model began to truly conquer the domestic market in the 90s with the release of the seventh generation (1991). Then only carburetor 1.3-liter modifications of the previous generation were imported into Russia. Corolla E110 debuted in 1995 and outwardly it completely repeated the E100. The engines have not changed the volume - these are the same engines in the range of 1.3-2.2 liters, producing 70-165 hp. The ninth generation since 2000 was already based on the Toyota Vista platform and differed from its predecessor in the modified front end of the car. In terms of engines, the top was now occupied by a 192-horsepower unit of 1.8 liters.

Corolla E140 is the next generation of the super popular golf-class car, which entered the assembly line in 2006. Russian drivers were able to choose between the 1.4- and 1.6-liter petrol engines with 97 and 124 hp, while the more powerful equipment was paired with a robotic transmission. The 10th generation restyling has expanded the line of installations with a 1.3-liter version with 101 hp. (there were also diesel modifications on the market for 1.4, 2.0 and 2.2 liters). And since 2012, Toyota has been releasing the Corolla in the E170 generation, the 11th since the start of the model's production. The elegant car has become even more practical and reliable, while maintaining the legendary efficiency and variety of trim levels.

When choosing a car oil for the summer or winter, it is important to purchase a lubricant that has an optimal viscosity suitable for the engine. To simplify the selection of grease, you can use the information set forth in the car operating instructions. These instructions describe the parameters of the recommended engine oil for Toyota Corolla.

1995 model

The selection of engine oil is carried out taking into account the type of car engine.

Gasoline power units

Scheme 1. Recommended density of car oil for models up to 1995.

According to this scheme, for the winter, when the air temperature is below +8 0 C, it is better to use motor fluids with a viscosity parameter of 5w-30. The use of lubricants with a viscosity of 10w-30, 15w-40 or 20w-50 is advisable at a temperature index above -18 0 С, in a lower temperature regime the use of these oils will lead to a deteriorated engine start and an increase in the consumption of the fuel mixture.

Scheme 2. Dependence of the viscosity of the engine fluid on the temperature of the region in which the car is operated (models equipped with gasoline engines since 1995).

* - model 4A-GE.

** - except for the 4A-GE model.

• 10w-30 is poured at temperatures above -20 0 С;
• 5w-30 is poured into the 4A-GE model if the thermometer is below +10 0 С;
• in a wide temperature range, from -30 0 С (or less) to +40 0 С (and more), 5w-30 is used (except for the 4A-GE model).

Diesel car engines

According to the manual for Toyota Corolla, it is recommended to use the oil type CD, CE or CF according to the API classification. The viscosity of lubricating fluids for models up to 1995 is selected according to Scheme 1, and for complete sets from 1995, the selection of viscosity parameters is performed according to Scheme 3.

Scheme 3. Recommended viscosity for models from 1995 release.

Based on the data of Scheme 2, at temperatures above -20 0 С, 10w-30 is used. 5w-30 oils are used in regions with air temperatures below +10 0 С.

According to the operating instructions for the machine, the recommended engine oil for Toyota Corolla is selected according to the type of engine. For 2E 1.3l power units, you need to use CD, CE or CF car oils in accordance with the API system or lubricants of a higher quality class. The recommended grease thickness is shown in diagram 4.

Scheme 4. Influence of air temperature on the selection of the viscosity of the motor fluid for engines 2E 1,3l.

In accordance with Scheme 4, it is recommended to use 15w-40, 20w-40 and 20w-50 lubricants if the temperature outside the car is above -9 0 C. With a thermometer reading above -23.5 0 C, it is worth using fluids 10w-30, 10w -40 or 10w-50. If the temperature is less than +8 0 С, then it is recommended to fill in 5w-30.

In the case of 4E-FE 1.3l power units, it is recommended to use the oil type SG, SF or higher according to API requirements. The viscosity of the engine fluid is selected according to scheme 5.

Scheme 5. Recommended density of engine fluid for car engines 4E-FE 1,3l.

According to scheme 5, at temperatures below +8 0 С, 5w-30 is poured. Auto oils 10w-30 are used when the temperature indicator is above -18 0 С, and 15w-40 or 20w-50 are poured if the temperature is above 12.5 0 С.

For 4ZZ-FE 1.4 liter Toyota Corolla engines, use oils of at least SJ class according to the API system. You can also use energy-saving motor oils with an inscription on the canister “Energy Conserving”. The density of the recommended car oil is selected according to scheme 6.

Scheme 6. Recommended thickness of engine fluid for 4ZZ-FE 1.4l engines.

The manufacturer recommends the use of 5w-30 greases over a wide temperature range. If the air temperature is above -18 0 С, then the manufacturer recommended pouring thicker oils 10w-30, 15w-40 or 20w-50.

Fuel economy and good engine start in cold weather are facilitated by the use of motor oils with a viscosity of 5w-30. For regions where the air temperature outside the car is above -18 0 C, it is permissible to fill in 10w-30, 15w-40 or 20w-50 greases. In the absence of 5w-30, it is permissible to fill in 10w-30, but the next time it is replaced, it must be changed to 5w-30.

• viscosity 10w-30, 5w-30, 5w-20 or 0w-20;
• oil class SL "Energy Conserving" or SM "Energy Conserving";
• ILSAC certified multipurpose greases.

Choosing the viscosity of the grease for the 1ZR-FE engine, use Scheme 9.

Conclusion

The consumption of motor lubricant in an engine depends on the quality and viscosity of the lubricant. Recommended engine oil for Toyota Corolla has optimal parameters, protects the engine from overheating in heat and starts the power unit without warming up in cold weather. When operating a car, keep in mind that even the recommended car oil can liquefy, therefore, with frequent use of the car in extreme conditions, it is worth changing the lubricant more often than indicated in the regulations.

The car manufacturer Toyota Corolla recommends the use of original synthetic oils from Castrol Mobile and many other well-known manufacturers. But today, branded car services do not recommend using products of European quality. To figure out who to give preference to, first you need to consider Japanese products specifically for the Toyota Corolla brand.

Japanese oil is produced under the name "Toyota", in most cases it is used in the domestic market. Exxon Mobil is the primary manufacturer that cooperates with and replenishes oil spills based on a contractual system with Toyota.

There are many brands, which in turn are produced at the same plant. For each type, a different manufacturing recipe is used. Before the development of engine oils for Toyota Corolla, numerous scientific works were carried out. This was necessary for an impeccable performance, taking into account the characteristics of different types of engines. All products of these brands have energy-saving properties and excellent quality.

Japanese engine oils for Toyota Corolla and their features

In order to come to a choice of which product to pour into a car engine, it is necessary to study the benefits of all types of oils. Toyota Corolla engine products are capable of performing 4 functions:

1. Genuine Toyota products contain additives that are attached to metal parts of various types of installations. If you still use the material for the Toyota Corolla, then the result will be excellent. The car will not overheat, the parts will slip easily.
2. The brand for Toyota Corolla promotes reliable sealing of cylinders that have micro-gaps. Helps maintain compression to keep the engine from losing power.
3. Another advantage is the removal of excess heat from the hot zone, which is located in the engine compartment, dissipating it in the radiator zone.
4. Toyota engine oil contains so-called detergent additives. They are able to clean engine parts, preventing formations that have formed at high temperatures.

Toyota brand engine oil has distinctive features. It contains more than seventy mineral substances, which in turn are responsible for its highest quality. It should also be noted that this Toyota Engine Oil product has several viscosity grades: OW-20, OW-30, 5W-30, 5W-40. OW-20 products have excellent performance, which are suitable specifically for our Russian climate.

Ensure minimum fuel consumption with the correct oil selection. The original Toyota brand has a drawback that plays an important role. It consists in a low amount of alkali. By using oils with higher alkalinity, the engine is able to cope with poorly manufactured fuel.

How often should you change your Toyota Corolla engine oil

It is necessary to change the engine oil at a frequency of about ten thousand kilometers of the vehicle's mileage. But most often, car owners change engine oil at five thousand.

For the correct replacement of the engine oil, it is necessary to use a vessel where the waste residues will be drained. It should hold four liters. You will also need rubber gloves to avoid scalding your hands from the high temperature of the oil. In order to unscrew the oil filter, you will need a strap wrench.

Engine oil change process for Toyota Corolla:

1. It is necessary to put the car in the pit. Distribute the necessary tools so that they are at hand.
2. If the car has not been started, warm it up. This is necessary in order for the oily liquid to warm up and become more liquid.
3. Next, stop the car if the engine is warmed up.
4. Take the vessel and place it under the drain.
5. Unscrew the drain plug. The content will spill out.
6. Take a funnel and place it in the oil fill hole. It is necessary to fill in gradually.
7. Then check the filling level with a dipstick.
