2022 Toyota LandCruiser engine oil

Engine oil is absolutely used on the 2022 Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series. Toyota’s Owner’s Manual and under‑bonnet labels specify oil grades and capacities, and Toyota Australia/New Zealand service schedules list periodic engine-oil and filter changes for this model. Those technical documents confirm that engine oil is a required service item for both the 3.3‑litre twin‑turbo diesel (AU/NZ) and the 3.5‑litre twin‑turbo petrol sold in other markets.

For this LandCruiser, engine oil does the heavy lifting: it lubricates moving parts to cut friction, carries heat away from hot spots (especially around turbochargers), suspends soot and contaminants so the filter can trap them, helps seal between piston rings and cylinder walls, prevents corrosion, and provides hydraulic control for components like variable valve timing. Fresh, correct‑spec oil keeps cold starts quiet, towing temps stable, and long highway runs efficient.

Service guidance in AU/NZ typically calls for engine-oil and filter changes at regular intervals (often every 6 months or 10,000 km, whichever comes first, per Toyota’s local service program for the LC300). That interval can shorten if the vehicle works hard—think towing a boat up the Kaimais, low‑range off‑roading in the High Country, dusty station tracks, lots of idling, or frequent short trips.

Oil grade depends on engine and climate. Toyota specifies different viscosities by market
