What kind of oil does a 2024 Lexus RX 350 take?

The 2024 Lexus RX 350 uses synthetic 0W-20 oil that meets ILSAC GF-6 standards (and API SN or higher). This is the standard specification for U.S. market RX 350 models; always check your owner's manual or with a dealer for your region.


The RX 350’s 2.4-liter turbocharged engine is designed for a low-viscosity oil to maximize efficiency and cold-start protection. Lexus specifies a 0W-20 full synthetic oil that carries GF-6 (or newer) certification, and recommends sticking to that grade unless a dealer advises otherwise for your specific market or driving conditions.


Oil specification for the RX 350


Before listing the exact requirements, here are the key criteria to verify on the oil you purchase.



  • 0W-20 synthetic motor oil that meets ILSAC GF-6 (or newer) and API SN or higher.

  • Full synthetic formulation; ensure the product explicitly states GF-6 compliance or newer.

  • Compatibility with your regional specification; U.S. models typically require GF-6 0W-20.


Choosing oil that meets these standards helps protect engine components, supports fuel efficiency, and maintains warranty coverage. If you can’t find GF-6–compliant oil locally, ask a Lexus service adviser for guidance on regional equivalents.


Summary


For a 2024 Lexus RX 350, use a 0W-20 synthetic motor oil that conforms to ILSAC GF-6 standards (and API SN or higher). Always verify the exact specification in your owner’s manual or with your dealer for your market, and select a reputable brand with the appropriate certification.
