Help your 2005 Toyota Highlander run newer, longer with routine oil changes. Schedule your oil change appointment today.
Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2005 Toyota Highlander? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.
Toyota recommends changing your 2005 Highlander’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Highlander may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Toyota if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Toyota Highlander. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2005 Toyota Highlander motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Toyota has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 2005 Highlander. This oil helps lubricate engine parts, regulate engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During an oil change, a technician will change your Highlander's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, refill vital car fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Highlander by taking into account your driving style, and mileage.
