How much oil does 2017 tundra take?

The 2017 Toyota Tundra requires different oil amounts depending on the engine. In brief: about 6.6 quarts for the 4.0-liter V6 and about 7.0 quarts for the 5.7-liter V8, both including the oil filter.


In more detail, Toyota offered two engines for the 2017 Tundra. The smaller 4.0L V6 holds a little over six quarts of oil, while the larger 5.7L V8 demands a bit more to stay properly lubricated. Always confirm the exact specification for your vehicle in the owner’s manual or on the under-hood oil-fill label, as capacities can vary slightly by model year or regional spec.


Engine-specific capacity


Below are the typical oil capacities for the two available engines in the 2017 Tundra. The figures include the replacement oil filter.



  • 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE): about 6.6 quarts (roughly 6.2 liters) with filter.

  • 5.7L V8 (i-Force, 3UR-FE): about 7.0 quarts (roughly 6.6 liters) with filter.


These numbers serve as general guidance for a standard oil change. For the most precise specification, consult the owner's manual, the service manual, or the factory-fill specification plate located in the engine bay.


Important notes for topping up


When performing an oil change or topping up, use the recommended oil grade and always replace the filter. After filling, start the engine, run it briefly, and recheck the level with the dipstick, topping as needed to reach the full mark.


Summary


The 2017 Toyota Tundra’s oil capacity depends on the engine choice: about 6.6 quarts for the 4.0L V6 and about 7.0 quarts for the 5.7L V8, both including the filter. Always verify with official sources and follow proper oil-change procedures to ensure accurate fill and engine health.
