Engine oil selection
"Toyota Genuine Motor Oil" is used in your Lexus vehicle. Use Lexus
approved "Toyota Genuine Motor Oil" or equivalent to satisfy the follow-
ing grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 5W-20 or 0W-20
Outside temperature
The 0W portion of the oil viscosity rating indicates the characteristic of the oil
which allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for eas-
ier starting of the engine in cold weather.
The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the oil viscosity when the oil is at its operating tem-
perature. An oil with a higher viscosity may be better suited if the vehicle is oper-
ated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions.
