For the 2018 Toyota Prius c, You should be changing the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. This is slightly variable depending on Your driving habits. That said, You should also be checking Your oil levels at least once a month to make sure they fall within the MINImum and maximum lines on the dipstick. If the oil goes above the top line, You need to drain some, and if it falls below the bottom line, You need to top it up. Oil maintenance is one of the most important things You can do for the life of Your car, so try to stay on top of it. Your car uses SAE 0W-20 full synthetic oil and the 4Cylinder will hold 4.4 US quarts.

You change the oil in a prius when it tells you to. An indicator will come on and tell you what service needs to be done when. When the service is done the indicator gets reset. The manual has long 10,000 mile intervals.Whether an automaker uses an oil life monitor or set mileage intervals, all of them also prescribe a maximum time frame for an oil change. For example, the 2010 toyota prius has a recommended oil interval of one year or 10,000 miles
