Keeping a Toyota going for the long haul
Toyotas have a reputation for running a long time, and the ones that do are the ones that get their maintenance on schedule: oil at the interval in the owner’s manual, coolant and brake fluid when they’re due, and tires rotated so they wear evenly. Our guide to how often to change your oil explains why the interval on many newer Toyotas is longer than the old 3,000-mile rule.
Trucks and SUVs
Tacoma, 4Runner and Tundra owners often tow, haul or head off-road, which counts as severe service: fluids and brakes wear faster. A brake inspection is free, and an alignment check after time on rough roads is too.
Toyota hybrids
The Prius and Toyota’s other hybrids need the same basics plus attention to cooling and A/C. See hybrid maintenance basics and our dedicated Toyota Prius page.
