How often should you get an oil change?

• Follow the schedule in your owner’s manual or the vehicle’s maintenance monitor for the most accurate interval for your driving conditions.
• Typical recommendations are every 5,000–7,500 miles for many modern oils under normal driving; severe conditions (short trips, heavy idling, extreme heat) may require more frequent service.
• Using the dealer’s service ensures the correct oil type, correct interval tracking and accurate service records that support warranty and resale value.

What type of oil does a 2014 Toyota Yaris take?

• Toyota specifies the viscosity and API rating in the owner’s manual; many 1.5L Toyota engines perform optimally with OEM-recommended oils.
• Full synthetic oils such as 0W-20 or 5W-30 are commonly used depending on climate and engine specification; our service advisors confirm the exact specification for your vehicle.
• At Coggin Toyota at the Avenues we use Toyota-approved oils and OEM filters to maintain manufacturer tolerances and protect engine components.

How much oil does a 2014 Toyota Yaris need?

• With an oil filter change, the 1.5L engines in many Yaris models typically require roughly 3.7–4.0 quarts (about 3.5–3.8 liters); exact capacity should be confirmed in the owner’s manual.
• Our technicians fill to the factory-specified level and verify measurements after warm-up and settling to ensure correct capacity and optimal protection.
• Accurate fill and proper filter replacement at the dealership reduce the risk of overfill or underfill and help maintain warranty coverage when applicable.
