The 2005 Toyota Tacoma oil type and capacity iS5w-30 and 5.5 quarts. The usual cost for a Toyota Tacoma oil change is between $140 and $158. Labor costs are priced between $55 and $67 while parts are priced between $95 and $102. You will run into issues with the oil at some point. A common problem is an awful burning smell. This needs to be inspected as soon as possible or the car might explode. Bad oil can cause the engine to stop working. Knocking noise may show up from the engine. You could experience bad gas mileage as well. Having high quality oil is essential for the engine to run smoothly.
