Toyota Tundra Oil Change Interval & Oil Type
Compiled & reviewed by Nikolai Tsyrenov · Updated 2026-07-18
When to change the oil on a 2022-2024 (3.5L twin-turbo i-FORCE / hybrid) Toyota Tundra, and what oil it takes.
| Oil change interval | 10,000 mi / 12 mo synthetic; 5,000 mi / 6 mo severe — sensible on a twin-turbo if towing |
|---|---|
| Engine / oil | 3.5L twin-turbo V6 (V35A) or i-FORCE MAX hybrid; 0W-20 synthetic; 10-speed auto |
| Oil filter | Replace with every oil change |
Toyota Tundra note: The 2022+ Tundra dropped the old 5.7 V8 for a twin-turbo V6 — turbos run hot, so a 5,000-mi oil discipline and earlier trans/diff service pay off if you tow heavy.
