Parts for your 2013 Toyota Hilux-Oil pump

2013 Toyota Hilux oil pump — what it does and how to look after it

Technical references including Toyota’s repair manuals for the 2013 Hilux engines (1KD-FTV and 2KD-FTV diesels, plus 1GR-FE and 2TR-FE petrol), the Toyota Electronic Parts Catalogue (EPC), and industry guides like Autodata and Haynes confirm this ute is fitted with an engine-driven, trochoid-style oil pump. So yes, the oil pump is absolutely relevant on a 2013 Toyota Hilux.

The oil pump’s job is straightforward but critical: it draws oil from the sump, pushes it through the filter, and feeds pressurised oil to bearings, camshafts, timing gear and – on diesels – the piston cooling jets. That oil film prevents metal-to-metal contact, carries away heat, and flushes out wear particles. A healthy pump means stable oil pressure at hot idle, quiet top-end operation, and long engine life – whether it’s a hard-working 1KD diesel or a petrol V6.

There’s no scheduled replacement interval for the oil pump
