Frequently Asked Questions

Why is an oil change important for a 1994 Toyota Land Cruiser?

• Protects the 4.5L inline-6 engine by removing contaminants that accelerate wear on bearings, rings and seals.
• Maintains peak performance of the engine that produces about 212 hp at 4600 rpm and 275 lb-ft of torque at 3200 rpm.
• Preserves fuel economy and drivability — fresh oil reduces friction and helps the engine run more efficiently (important for older SUVs rated around 11 city / 14 hwy mpg).
• Prevents sludge buildup and overheating in heavy-duty or off-road use, extending the life of the drivetrain and four-wheel drive components.
• Helps retain resale value by keeping documented maintenance current; Coggin Toyota records maintenance for transparency.

• Synthetic oil provides longer service intervals and better protection for older engines and heavy-use scenarios; our advisors will recommend the right grade for your driving habits.
• Always confirm the exact specification in your owner’s manual; if repairs are covered under warranty, they must be performed at a certified dealership to retain coverage.
