How much oil does a 2017 Lexus GS take?

A typical 2017 Lexus GS requires about six quarts of engine oil with the filter. The exact amount varies slightly by engine variant and whether the oil filter is replaced during the change.


To understand this topic in more detail, the following sections break down the capacities by model, explain the recommended oil type, and outline how often you should change the oil under normal driving conditions.


Model-by-model oil capacity


Before the list, note that these figures are typical guidelines. Always confirm the exact capacity for your specific vehicle in the owner’s manual or maintenance documentation.



  • GS 350 / GS 350 F Sport (3.5L V6, 2GR-FKS): approximately 6.0 quarts (about 5.7 liters) of engine oil with the filter.

  • GS 450h / Hybrid models (3.5L V6 paired with electric motors): approximately 6.9 quarts (about 6.5 liters) of engine oil with the filter.


These figures reflect typical service measurements. If you recently replaced the oil filter or performed a heavy drain, the exact amount may differ slightly.


Recommended oil type


Use synthetic 0W-20 engine oil that meets Lexus specifications and current API/ILSAC standards. The exact viscosity and specification may be noted in your owner’s manual, so verify the recommended grade for your trim and market.


When topping up or performing a full oil change, ensure you use the correct oil type to maintain engine lubrication and fuel efficiency as designed by Lexus.


Oil change intervals


Follow the maintenance minder system and the owner’s manual for official intervals. With synthetic 0W-20 oil, many owners follow longer intervals (up to around 10,000 miles) under normal driving, but severe driving conditions or older maintenance records may warrant shorter intervals (often around 5,000–7,500 miles). Always rely on the vehicle’s maintenance reminder and local dealer guidance for the exact schedule.


Summary


For most 2017 Lexus GS models, plan on about six quarts of engine oil with the filter, with a slightly higher figure for Hybrid variants. Confirm the exact capacity for your specific trim in the owner’s manual, and use the recommended synthetic 0W-20 oil. Adhere to the maintenance minder prompts and your dealer’s guidance to keep the engine running smoothly.
