How much oil does a 2010 Lexus take?
Most 2010 Lexus models with a V6 engine take about 6.4 quarts of engine oil with the filter installed; larger V8-powered models generally require around 7.5 to 8 quarts. Exact capacity depends on the specific model and engine, so always verify with the owner's manual or service data for your vehicle.
In practice, the 2010 Lexus lineup included several body styles with different powertrains. The common V6 engines appear in models such as the ES 350, RX 350, IS 350, and GS 350, while the larger 4.6L V8 units power the GX 460 and LS 460. The figures below reflect typical capacities for these engine families.
Oil capacity by engine family
Note: The following figures reflect typical baselines for the main 2010 Lexus engines and are intended as a starting point. Always confirm for your exact model and trim.
- 3.5L V6 family (used in ES 350, RX 350, IS 350, GS 350): 6.4 quarts (6.0 liters) of oil with a new filter.
- 4.6L V8 family (used in GX 460, LS 460): about 7.5–8.0 quarts (7.1–7.6 liters) of oil with a new filter.
Concluding note: For the most precise figure, consult your owner's manual or a Lexus service adviser. After pouring oil, use the dipstick to confirm the level sits within the correct range once the engine has run and settled.
Common model examples
As a practical reference, the ES 350 and RX 350 (both V6) typically align with the 6.4-quart baseline, while the GX 460 and LS 460 (V8s) fall into the 7.5–8.0 quart range. Hybrid or less common variants in the 2010 lineup may have different requirements and should be checked separately.
Summary
In short, 2010 Lexus oil capacity varies by engine: about 6.4 quarts for most V6 models, and roughly 7.5–8.0 quarts for the larger V8-powered models. Always verify against the specific model's manual and use the dipstick to ensure proper oil level after an oil change.
