Parts for your 2007 Toyota Hilux-Oil pump

2007 Toyota Hilux oil pump — what it does and when to service it

Based on Toyota workshop literature (Hilux 2005–2015 Repair Manual, section Lubrication), the Engine Repair Manuals for 1KD-FTV/2KD-FTV (diesel) and 2TR-FE/1TR-FE (petrol), plus common industry references like the Haynes Hilux 2005–2015 manual and Toyota Electronic Parts Catalogue listings, the 2007 Hilux is fitted with an engine-driven trochoid/gear-type oil pump. It’s mounted at the front of the engine and driven off the crankshaft, with an internal relief valve to regulate pressure.

This pump’s whole job is to push the right amount of oil through the engine at the right pressure. It feeds crank and cam bearings, piston cooling jets (on D-4D diesels), the turbocharger on diesel models, and the variable valve timing system on petrol variants. If the pump can’t keep pressure up, wear accelerates fast—so clean oil, a decent filter, and the correct viscosity are the pump’s best mates.

For regular servicing, stick to the factory schedule in the owner’s handbook
