The 2.4L inline-4 is the standard engine that comes in the 2005 Toyota RAV4. It only needs 4 quarts of synthetic blend 5W30 oil.
3.7L without filter, 3.9L with filter of 5W30. It does not require synthetic oil.

Do not mix synthetic with regular oil if you are just topping off. If you are changing the oil and filter then you can use fully synthetic or regular oilwhichever you choose.
